Investment Rationale
While the high concentration of coal-thermal projects had raised ESG concerns on the company, we see incremental efforts toward RE expansion. This, along with an improvement in the RoE profile, should lead to a re-rating in the stock. In the past five years, the company has traded at an average PB of 1.1x and RoE of sub-11%. With RoEs moving to 12.5%, a re-rating should happen, in our view. We have cut FY22E/FY23E/FY24E EPS by 3-5% to factor in the lower surcharge. The brokerage maintains Buy with a TP of Rs180, at an implied P/B multiple of ~1.2x.
