Prabhudas Lilladher research report

HDFC Bank "HDFCB’s revenue momentum seems to be catching up with the weak macros and Q2FY14 also exposes some vulnerability on liabilities. However, the bank has surprised everyone on the quantum of opex flexibility. This, along with credit costs flexibility, makes HDFCB best placed among defensives to weather the storm. Hence, we maintain our ‘BUY’ rating with a PT of Rs 725/share and relative preference for HDFCB v/s other defensives (HDFC Ltd/ Kotak)." NIIT Technologies "NIIT Tech reported revenues/margin below PLe/Consensus expectation due to weakness in Europe. Order intake was softer due to weakness/volatility in India order book. Positive IATA commentary, ramp-up in government projects and stability in GIS would give steady revenue growth with stable margin. It is currently trading at 6.6x FY14E earnings estimates with an EPS CAGR of 16 percent (FY13-15E). We retain our ‘BUY’ rating with a target price of Rs 380," says Prabhudas Lilladher research report.
