OutlookWe like SEL, given its strong orderbook, management bandwidth, strong execution capabilities and robust set of opportunities ahead. Consequently, we expect revenues to grow at 16.7% CAGR to Rs 4776.7 crore in FY18-20E. Furthermore, its robust project pipeline drives our comfort over SEL’s capabilities to capture the opportunities ahead. Hence, we maintain our BUY recommendation on the stock with an SOTP based target price of Rs 350/share. We now value SEL’s 69% stake in SIPL at Rs 159/share and EPC business at Rs 193/share (8.0x FY20E EV/EBITDA implying PE multiple of 11.1x FY20E EPS).
