Outlook
We initiate coverage with a HOLD rating, based on 40x FY28E EPS which is similar to our CDSL’s target multiple. The high multiple (notwithstanding the recent sectoral multiple expansion) factors in the long-term relative safe compounding potential with an optionality of market share gain, especially with a new, strong management team and a fresh focus on enhancing digital capability. Positive/negative market momentum may present upside/downside risks.
