Return ratios have remained healthy across economic cycles with RoE >20% and RoA >2.5%. However, we expect its credit growth to moderate, going ahead. Hence, we expect PAT CAGR of 12.7% in FY15-17E vs. 15% expected earlier. Accordingly, we lower our target multiple for standalone entity to 3.3x FY17E ABV from 3.5x FY17E ABV. We maintain our BUY rating on the stock but reduce SOTP based target price to | 1330 from | 1410 earlier.
