Lakshmi Vilas Bank can move to Rs 145 in the next four-six months time, says SP Tulsian of sptulsian.com.
Tulsian told CNBC-TV18, "Lakshmi Vilas Bank has shown a very good performance for Q4. If you take their overall FY11 performance, the bank had posted an EPS in double digits that is Rs 10 plus and their fall in the NPA was at 4% plus as of March 31, 2010 and has fallen to less than 1% to be precise at 0.91%. They have a total 273 branches with presence in 16 states. If you take the marketcap of the bank which is at Rs 440 crore that means each branch is valued at a valuation of Rs 1.5 crore."
He further added, "If you see the financials or the provisioning coverage ratio which is at 77% against the stipulation of 70% and apart from improvement in working in Q4, the bank will be aggressive in opening more branches going forward. The same kind of profitability is likely to continue and I won't be surprised if I see an EPS of over Rs 12 plus for the bank in FY12. The stock looks quite good at Rs 112. I am expecting that probably it can move to about Rs 145 in the next four-six months time."
