2. Market Outlook | India Research
Vedanta buys Anglo zinc assets for US $1.34bn
Vedanta has bought the zinc assets of Anglo American, which includes the Skorpion mine
in Namibia, Lisheen in Ireland and Black Mountain in South Africa, for US $1.34bn. The
deal will take Vedanta’s share to 11% of the global zinc industry, and it will increase its
zinc-lead capacity by 37%. According to the management, the deal values the assets at an
EV/EBITDA of 3.0-3.5x forward earnings and it would be fully funded through cash.
Currently, Hindustan Zinc (HZL) has a cash balance of ~US $2.5bn. However, we have
not factored this in our HZL estimates, as the acquisition is currently in the books of
Vedanta and the management has indicated that it would be transferred to HZL once the
final approval of the Government is received. We maintain a Buy on HZL, with a Target
Price of Rs1,399.
RCom to launch IPTV service in Metro Cities
RCom is expected to launch its Internet Protocol Television (IPV) service in Delhi and
Mumbai region in the next three months to rev-up its non-mobile (voice) revenues. The
company has worked an aggressive 100-day strategy to achieve the targeted revenue
market share. The company has also launched new fixed price plans for local (Rs299) and
NLD (Rs599) services, with large free bundled minutes. The Local plans would include
3,000 Reliance to Reliance (R2R) free local minutes and 900 local minutes for any other
network. The plan is available for CDMA subscribers only and would help the Minutes
growth in the coming period. We believe that this strategy may rev-up the subscriber
growth, but may further intensify the pricing competition. We maintain our Buy
recommendation, with a Target price of Rs195.
Result Previews
Hindalco
Hindalco is slated to announce its 4QFY2010 results. The company is expected to register
a 54.1% yoy jump in top-line to Rs5,684cr, on the back of higher realisations. However,
on the operating front, EBITDA margins are expected to expand by 707bp to 15.6%.
Hence, the bottom-line is expected to grow by 81% yoy to Rs486.4cr. We maintain a Buy
on the stock with a Target Price of Rs207.
Jain Irrigation
Jain Irrigation is slated to announce its 4QFY2010 results. The company is expected to
register a 15% yoy growth in Top-line to Rs805cr (Rs699cr), on the back of a buoyancy in
the MIS and Agro Divisions. On the Operating front, Operating margins are expected to
remain at level of 21%, due to an increased contribution from MIS. PAT is likely to grow at
156%, due to a lower base in 4QFY2009 (exceptional item). We maintain our Neutral
rating on the stock, and would review it after the earnings’ call.

3. Market Outlook | India Research
Ranbaxy (1QCY2010)
Ranbaxy is slated to announce its 1QCY2010 results today. The company is expected to
post a 12.4% growth in Top-line to Rs1,748cr, driven by Valtrex exclusivity. We expect
Valtrex to contribute US $90mn to the Top-line and US $54mn to the Operating Profit. The
company is expected to report an OPM of 19.5%. We also expect the company to clock
higher Other Income, owing to the agreement entered into with Impax for the launch of
Flomax. Ranbaxy is expected to report Net Profit of Rs272.2cr, driven by the Top-line
growth and MTM gains on forex hedges. We recommend a Neutral rating on the stock.

new businesses like radio, Burda JV and Internet. We maintain a Buy on the stock, with a
Target Price of Rs170
