According to CRISIL Research, India Inc’s revenue growth for the quarter in review is expected to have slowed by 80-90 bps on-year to 4-6 per cent, due to weaker performance in the construction and industrial commodities sectors, as well as subdued investment-linked segments. However, profitability will show 40-50 bps improvement, driven by export-linked sectors such as IT services and pharmaceuticals. Other brokerage firms also stated that the revenue growth this quarter slowed to around 5.2 per cent, down from 6 per cent in Q3FY24 due to extended monsoons and delayed government spending that hit the construction sector.

Sustained sales aided in overall presales to Rs 30bn vs our estimates of Rs 33bn in the absence of new launches. Management is confident of achieving a full-year presales target of Rs 240-250bn, driven by ~Rs 300bn of new launches where PEPL is confident of selling 40% of inventory at launch. Profitability in the residential segment is also improving – 9MFY25 residential EBITDA margin at 26% vs 23% in FY24. Core operating cash flow was healthy at ~Rs 9bn covering capex spent on annuity and hospitality assets. Investments in land and stake increases amounted to Rs 24bn, driving QoQ rise in net debt to Rs 60bn. Exit rentals in the annuity portfolio stood at Rs 7.5bn and estimated to increase >4x to Rs 43bn in FY29.

Praj Industries Q3 Results Live Updates: Engineering segment drags performance, says Elara Securities
Elara Securities said, “Praj Industries (PRJ IN) execution remains muted for the past seven quarters due to several headwinds, such as the ban on sugar feedstock for ethanol production, delay in commissioning of the engineering facility and decline in new order inflows during the year. We believe the stock lacks near-term triggers as engineering customers take longer to inspect the new facility, macro liquidity challenges leading to delay in financial closure of new ethanol projects, policy push needed toward higher ethanol blending target to rebound inflows (EBP-20 already achieved up to 18%). However, international orders could provide respite as enquiries are building up in 2G ethanol in South America and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in the US. We remain cautious and factor in delay in inflows & execution, leading to an earnings cut of 18% for FY26E and 16% for FY27E.”

PNB Q3 Results Live Updates: Good quarter; still a long way to go, says Elara Securities
Elara Securities said, “Punjab National Bank (PNB) Q3FY25 PAT of Rs 45 bn surpassed estimates on lower credit cost (despite creating floating provisions) and some writebacks. Asset quality sustained its improvement, with NNPL at a mere 41bp – a commendable feat, in our view. NIM held up by 1bp QoQ, better than peers, but it had an element of interest on IT refunds. Core operating performance (excluding one-offs) remains volatile and scores below peers. The key discussion hereon is whether there is scope for improvement in core metrics or are these closer to the peak. Also, consistency in core PPOP is yet to be established and profitability is still soft albeit improving. ROE of 10-12% even by FY27E would run lower than peers.

However, a strong specialty pipeline which includes Ilumya – PsA indication, newer assets like Fibromun and Otenaproxesul provide a long runway for growth. We expect more such M&A deals as the cash pile rises.”

Bandhan Bank Q3 Results Live Updates: Weak on multiple fronts; volatility worrisome, says Elara Securities
Bandhan Bank reported yet another soft quarter with weakness on several fronts reflecting persistent niggles. Elara Securities said, “The key highlights were: 1) yet another quarter of volatile slippages at >5.5% largely contributed by the MFI segment. Moreover, the bank did write-off Rs 12.7bn, which fed into much higher credit cost, 2) despite this, the SMA pool further swelled up, 3) NIM declined 50bp QoQ, which along with higher opex dragged core profitability, and 4) profitability was cushioned by one-offs. Discussion hereon will be manifold on 1) asset quality outcome, especially in light of persisting concerns on the MFI segment & rise in SMA accounts yet again despite such slippages, and 2) the effects of transition, which will have a nagging impact. There are several moving variables, which are hard to access at the current juncture and may have implications on structural valuation.”
Blue Dart Q3 Results Live Updates: Minor rise in the EBITDA margin YoY is a key positive, says InCred Equities
Blue Dart Express or BDE’s Q3FY25 sales (Rs15.1bn) grew by 9% yoy, lower than the 12% yoy rise in cargo, despite a tariff hike in Jan 2024. The EBITDA margin (15.8%) rose by 39bp yoy. As a result, InCred Equities said, “EBITDA rose by 12% yoy, in line with volume growth. Air cargo by BDE aircraft increased just 2% yoy in Oct-Nov 2024 (below the 4% yoy industry growth). Over Q3FY23-Oct-Nov 2024, BDE’s air cargo was flat. This is disappointing, especially considering the addition of two aircraft to BDE’s fleet in Q4FY23. We note that the yoy rise in H1FY25 (11%) is misleading – volume was flat over H1FY23-H1FY25. Air cargo is the most profitable business for BDE comprising ~70%/ 80%+ of its sales/EBIT.”
IndusInd Bank Q3 Results Live Updates: Credit slowdown across segments; recovery to be gradual, says InCred Equities
InCred Equities says, “IndusInd Bank (IIB) reported 3QFY25 advances at Rs 3.67tr (+12.2% yoy, +2.7% qoq) with continued weakness in microfinance or MFI lending (-8.9% qoq); however, the sequential fall in retail (+2.9% qoq) and corporate loan (+0.5% qoq) segments indicate an intentional slowdown. Within retail, vehicle financing is already witnessing cyclicity, especially in the demand for commercial vehicles whereas the unsecured retail segment (personal loans/credit cards) has been affected by the macroeconomic slowdown and rising defaults. Though management remains optimistic about normalization of demand from 4QFY25F, considering the adverse macroeconomic trends, we remain skeptical of a quick recovery.”
