JM Finnacial starts coverage on ITC
JM Financial gives coverage on ITC with a 'buy' rating.
Target Price: Rs 238
JM Financial has initiated coverage on ITC with a ���buy��� rating, as it feels that the company���s strategy of creating multiple growth drivers to reduce excess dependence on cigarettes for long-term sustenance would strengthen its growth prospects.
"Contrary to popular belief, overall growth is higher than the mainstay cigarettes business��� EBIT growth of 14% pa signifying success of ITC���s strategy in creating multiple drivers of growth," says the report.
The brokerage expects such pattern to continue stronger, going forward, especially with non-cigarettes FMCG portfolio projected to break-even in FY11E.
