Investment Rationale
ASTRA’s superior capital allocation has resulted in strong revenue and earnings growth, as well as high return ratios. While earnings growth outlook remains buoyant, ASTRA’s stepping up asset sweating led FCF/return ratio acceleration should further bolster its valuations. We initiate coverage on ASTRA with an ADD rating and a TP of INR 2,210/share (34x its consolidated Mar’23E EBITDA). Despite valuing it at a 15% premium to its 3-year mean multiple, the upside is limited, owing to sharp rise in its share price over the past six months.
