As the wisdom goes in the market, there are always opportunities in every adversity which exhibit bull moves even in a rough environment. We

believe in the current uncertain scenario, when many stocks are at multi year lows and finding opportunities is challenging, identifying such resilient

stocks and riding them in a rough environment like this will be rewarding and exciting on the other hand.

Hence in this report, we try to spot on such resilient companies based on our technical framework. We have run rigorous filters to identify such stocks

that have the ability to withstand storm and to take off once the runway is clear

Our screeners are anchored on following broad technical concepts and applied on a universe of 918 stocks listed on NSE, to find the outperformers

during the market decline in 2020. Refer a list of top 100 stocks in appendix.

a) Structural turnarounds – stocks which have witnessed faster retracement of entire January – March 2020 decline in faster time, during April 2020,

thereby signalling change of guard and robust price structure. (Most domestic Pharma companies belong to this category)

b) Relative strength rankings – a set of stocks which have remained resilient during the sharp decline of February and March 2020 and relatively

outperformed against benchmarks acting as defensive bets for investors. These stocks have steadied the portfolio performance in turbulent times.

(Most IT and consumer staples fall under this basket)

c) Dow Theory bullish signals – following classic Dow Theory principle of identifying trend, companies exhibiting a combination of higher high-low

on Yearly time frame (long term degree) and supported by similar signal on Monthlies (medium term degree). As the basic tenet of Dow Theory

goes, trend is a friend and therefore staying invested with these companies may be rewarding (Chemical, MNC Pharma names, are some

examples of this basket)

• The stock has been one of the major out

performer within technology space and

has seen a sharp recovery in the last 3-4

weeks from the decade long rising

demand line joining the major lows of

CY09 (| 94) CY13 (| 276) and CY17 (|

796) placed around | 1600 levels.

Empirically, stock went back to its life

time highs post testing the key trend line.

We expect the stock to follow the same

rhythm and resolve higher thus offering

fresh entry opportunity to accumulate

• The monthly MACD is seen converging

with its nine periods average, supporting

bullish stance

• We expect the stock to continue with its

up move and head higher to challenge its

life time closing highs around |3000

Info Edge (India) (INFEDG): Sharp rebound from a decade long rising demand line…

94

3130

Rec. Price 2400.00-2600.00 Target 2950.00 Upside 18%

Fundamental Outlook

• Info edge is one of the few pure play listed internet companies in India. The company has various online businesses like Naukri (online recruitment classified), 99 Acres (online real estate

classified), Jeevansathi (online matrimony classified), Shiksha (online education classified) and also has stake in various start ups of which two are unicorns (PolicyBazaar & Zomato).

• In the near term, slowdown in economy could impact hiring activity (Naukri business) and real estate business (99 acres) leading to deceleration in growth in the business. However, we expect

the company to return to it’s strong growth in medium term led by its leadership position in each of the above verticals. Further, despite the slowdown in growth we expect the company to still

have a CAGR growth of 17.4% and 19.5% in revenues and profitability over FY19-22E.

• Further, Info edge’s strong cash flow generation, prudent capital allocation, presence in niche businesses, leadership in Naukri with EBITDA margin of 58% and is a quasi-play on India’s booming

start-up economy makes it an attractive business to own. This coupled with strong financials we remain positive on the stock from a long-term perspective.

• The share price has relatively outperformed

the midcap index and held its key support,

despite a volatile market environment,

around | 450 marked by a) breakout area

of long term contracting triangle, thereby

confirming change of polarity b) 61.8%

retracement of last major up move (| 337-

642), at | 453. Thereby offering fresh entry

opportunity with favourable risk reward

• Among oscillator front, weekly stochastic

is marching upward after recording bullish

crossover, indicating continuance of

positive bias

• We expect the stock to challenge its life-

time high at |642 and eventually head

towards | 688 in coming months as it is

123.6% retracement of past two months

decline (| 642–443), at | 688

Coromandel International (CORINT): Successful retesting of triangle breakout confirms change of polarity…

587

Rec. Price 540.00-600.00 Target 688.00 Upside 21%

Fundamental Outlook

• Coromandel International Limited is India’s second largest Phosphatic fertilizer player. The company is in the business segments of Fertilizers, Specialty Nutrients and Crop Protection.

• The Company manufactures a wide range of fertilizers and markets around 4.5 million tonnes making it a leader in its addressable markets.

• Coromandel being one of the largest player into phosphatic fertiliser is poised to benefit from the recent increase in SSP prices, since the company has been selling SSP of around 5.6-6 lacs

tonnes every year. Further, recent increase in the prices of DAP can also assist company to benefit from higher realisation of NPKs.

• We believe with increase in the fertiliser industry volumes ahead of Kharif season along with higher realisations and better EBITDA/tonne post fall in the rock phosphate & sulphur prices,

Coromandel international should likely to post decent performance in the coming time.

• The stock has seen a change of Polarity as

previous major trendline resistance joining

highs of CY’15 (| 318) and CY’18 (|453)

has reversed its role and acting as support

which is currently placed at | 500 levels.

The stock has witnessed strong up move

• The current decline from the all time high

(|830 - |500) has achieved equality in

magnitude with 2015-2016 decline (| 318-

Relaxo Footwears (RELFOO): Change of polarity as price rebounded from major support area…

500

Rec. Price 600.00-645.00 Target 765.00 Upside 22%

Fundamental Outlook

• Relaxo Footwears is one of the India’s largest footwear company with a capacity of manufacturing 750000 pairs of footwear per day. Relaxo has a strong presence in low priced footwear

segment with more than 70% of sales under the | 500 category. The product portfolio consist of only non-leather items with EVA, PU and rubber being the key raw materials. It has a well spread

out distribution network consisting of 50000+ retailers and 385 company owned-company controlled (COCO) stores

• Over the years, Relaxo has consistently posted a superior performance, depicting the fundamental strength of the company. While volumes have trebled over the last decade (10 year CAGR:

10%), transformation from being a basic hawai slipper company to a conglomerate of higher value added product categories has led average realisation to double to 125/ piece (10 year CAGR:

7.0%)

• Relaxo has a capital efficient business model, generating healthy asset turns of 3.0x and EBITDA margins of 15%. Stringent control in NWC (60 days) has led to average CFO/EBITDA at 55%.

Subsequently, D/E ratio fell from 1.0x in FY13 to 0.1x in FY19, with RoCE of 20%+. We expect Relaxo to be the beneficiary of market share gains through a shift from unorganised to organised

players

• The stock has been in secular up trend and

elevated levels. It has recently rebounded

taking support at lower band of the rising

The stock in secular up trend trading in a rising channel highlighting sustained

demand at elevated levels

• Astral poly is one of the largest players in the plastic pipe industry in India with ~30% market share in the CPVC pipe category. Company derives ~75% of its revenue from the pipingsegment while the rest comes from the adhesive segments (relatively new business). We expect, further market share gain for Astral in the CPVC segment due to recent anti dumping duty

by government on inferior CPVC resins/ compound.

• Astral has recorded a strong revenue, earning CAGR of 23% and 26% during FY12-19 led by strong piping volume growth of ~18% and expansion in EBITDA margin. Further, company’s cash flow

from operation grew at CAGR of 17% which helped company to fund its expansion plan without leveraging balance sheet. Despite, capacity addition and increase in dealer networks Astral’s

balance sheet position has remained strong with efficient working capital management (average RoCE and RoE of 25% and 19% respectively). While company likely to face near term challenge

due to lockdown, the long term prospect of the company remained strong given the strong push of government in the construction and infrastructure developments

• We believe, company to record revenue , earning CAGR of 18% and 17% in FY20E-22E supported by ~15% volume growth in the piping segment. While company likely to face near term

challenge due to lockdown, we believe Astral is better placed among competitors to recoup lost sales (once the lockdown opens) due to its strong fundamentals and financialconditions. We also believe the near term challenges has been factored in the current stock price. On account of low valuations and strong demand recovery from FY22E, we are positive on the

stock

• The stock has held its key upward sloping

trend line (as shown in adjoining chart),

around | 460, despite elevated market

volatility and remains outperformer within

Cement space. A higher base formation

near key support of |500-520 signals

positive bias and offers a fresh entry

opportunity with favourable risk-reward for

• Structurally, over past 24 months the stock

has retraced 80% of preceding 26 months

rally (| 360–879), at | 460. Slower pace of

retracement signals robust price structure

• We expect the stock to resolve higher and

head towards | 665 levels as it is the 50%

455) placed at | 665 levels

Ramco Cement (RAMCEM): Retesting of long term trend line

Rec. Price 520.00-570.00 Target 665.00 Upside 22%

Fundamental Outlook

• Ramco Cements is a leading cement player with presence in the South and Eastern India. The company is currently in process of adding ~1 MT of grinding capacity (will reach 20 MT post

commissioning) within few month and 3.75 MT of clinker capacity which should be commissioned within a years’ time. The company intends to increase focus towards the North East region

going ahead post commissioning of railway siding at its West Bengal plant. This should improve profitability and increase the company’s geographical presence. Also its operating regions, South

and East should see faster demand pullback as these regions are relatively less affected by the virus outbreak. Thus Ramco Cements would be one of the companies which would remain ahead

of the curve

• Currently the company has sufficient inventory of cement as well as raw materials to continue production. While the sales volumes are being affected, rural and semi-urban areas have shown

resilience. On the pricing front, the management does not foresee significant pressure on cement prices in the near term. Further, with most of the costs being variable in nature and with crude

and petcoke prices seeing significant correction, the company could see improvement in profitability which could partially offset lost EBITDA on account of lower volumes. The debt of | 2900

crore in its book which would increase further by upto | 500 crore to fund the capex and working capital requirement. However we do not see this increase in debt to pose threat to the

company’s balance sheet strength, as its D/E would remain well below 0.5x. The company’s current cost of debt is among the lowest in the industry at 7.25%

• From the replacement cost perspective, Ramco Cement is available at an EV/tonne of 110$ which is sub-optimal considering the cost leadership and balance sheet strength the company

possesses. On the EV/EBITDA front, the company is trading at ~13x FY22E EV/EBITDA vs last 3 year average EV/EBITDA multiple of 17-18x

Rec. Price 480.00-520.00 Target 620.00 Upside 24%

Fundamental Outlook

• From being an Anti-AIDS API supplier the company is rigorously diversifying its product basket by moving into some niche APIs and formulations. heavy balance sheet and subdued return ratios

are attributable to aggressive capex in the past few years. However, with strong clientele, good execution track record, diverse product offering and relatively better compliance track record,

things should look promising.

• The company, being the largest supplier of some of the key Anti-AIDS and other APIs in the world can also a likely beneficiary in the recent quest for possible drugs that are being targeted for

the treatment of Covid 19. This would also likely to generate better operating leverage on the back of better capacity utilisation.
