    ICICI Direct's research report on Amara Raja Batteries

    Amara Raja Batteries (ARBL) is a part of the duopolistic organised Indian lead acid battery market with a strong presence across automotive (OEM, aftermarket) and industrial battery space (UPS, telecom, solar, etc). Geographical mix as of FY22: domestic ~87%, export ~13% • Battery capacity as of FY22: 1.62 crore units for 4-W, 2.91 crore units for 2- W, 2 bn AH for industrial battery; cumulative across eight plants in India.

    Outlook

    We downgrade from HOLD to REDUCE rating given future growth challenge posed by EV transition and delayed commitment towards Li-On space. Revising our estimates we now value ARBL at a revised TP of Rs 475 i.e. 13x P/E on FY24E EPS of Rs 36.6/share (earlier TP Rs 650.
