target price: Rs 324
Indiabulls Securities has upgraded Reliance Communications (RCOM) to ���buy��� as it feels that the stock trades at steeper-than-warranted discounts, which ignores the robust growth of the Indian mobile subscribers and RCOM���s brand equity. The broking house says, ���Aggressive pan-India GSM services roll-out would boost RCOM���s market share to 20% by financial year 2010.
We expect RCOM to edge out other entrants in subscriber net additions, capitalising on a prominent presence in 22 circles and high-brand recognition.��� The note says that its discounted cash flow (DCF)-based sum of the parts (SOTP) valuation suggests a fair value of Rs 324, which provides a significant upside from the current price.
RCOM���s net sales grew 5.9% quarter on quarter to Rs 5,540 crore on the back of healthier global revenues and better operational metrics. ���We believe that RCOM will continue to trade at a discount to Bharti due to the latter���s above-average financial metrics, but the current discounts are steeper-than-warranted.
