JSW Steel
Broking firm: India Infoline
Reco Price: Rs 961
Target Price: Rs 1240
CMP: Rs 1009
Upside: 22.9%
JSW’s expansion plans are ahead of schedule and strong demand is likely to lead to higher capacity utilisation. India Infoline expects the company’s steel output to register a compounded average growth rate (CAGR) of 28.3 per cent over FY07-FY10 from 2.6 tonne per annum to 5.6 tonne per annum.
JSW’s crude steel making capacity is expected to be 10 tonne per annum by 2010 from current 3.8 tonne per annum. The company is also increasing its upstream capacities, cushioning it from any downturn in the industry.
Also, its operating margins are expected to expand in FY09 led by higher realisations from value-added products and increased usage of captive resources. JSW’s consistent focus on value-added products would lead to higher price realisations for the company in the next three years.
Besides, JSW’s captive coke and power plants are expected to be fully operational in FY09 leading to better margins. At Rs 961, the stock trades at 10.1 times and 7.1 times on consolidated EPS of Rs 94.8 in FY08 and Rs 136.1 in FY09, respectively.
Godawari Power & Ispat
Broking firm: Motilal Oswal
Reco Price: RS 263
Target Price: Rs 380
CMP: Rs 290.5
Upside: 31%
Godawari Power and Ispat Ltd. (GPIL) has nearly doubled capacity of sponge iron to 495,000 tpa and that of steel billets to 400,000 tpa. Captive power capacity too has increased from 28MW to 53MW. They are likely to benefit from current strong prices of steel products and sponge iron.
GPIL is also setting up a 0.6 mtpa pelletisation plant to utilise iron ore fines, required for sponge iron production. This will bring down raw material costs substantially and improve the margins. GPIL has been allotted both iron ore (reserves of 15m tons) and non-coking coal mines (reserves of 63m tons) to meet its requirement of raw materials which will bring down costs and insulate earnings from input price risk.
Besides this, the benefit of carbon credits (Rs 10.8 crore) and sales tax benefit (Rs 240 crore) will prop up the bottomline. At recommoneded price the stock trades at a PE multiple of 5.5 times FY09E.

Reco Price: Rs 70
Target Price: Rs 100
CMP: Rs 69.6
Upside: 43%
Aftek, a seasoned player in software product engineering has more than 100 active intellectual properties to its credit.

The broking firm believes that despite strong fundamentals, Aftek is valued at 50 per cent discount to its nearest competitor. Besides, Aftek’s cash reserves is a huge strength for expansions in future. The company’s cash on its books stands at Rs 33 per share. At a P/BV of 1.0, the stock is undervalued. Valuing the company at 7-times its FY09 likely EPS of Rs 14.4, gives it a price target of Rs 100.

However, the stock is still valued in terms of its legacy business.
