Mahindra & Mahindra - BUY - TP Rs.1604 - Result Update - Kotak

- M&M positively surprised on the operating front in 2QFY18. Strong tractor volume growth and superior product mix in the auto segment led to M&M+MVML's (Mahindra Vehicle Manufacturers Limited) reported results coming in well above expectation. Over a YoY basis, revenue/EBITDA/PAT growth was 19%/35%/22% respectively. Growth in the auto segment will be largely contingent upon new products/uplifts. Tractor volume growth is expected to remain healthy in FY18. We do not expect margins to sustain at 2QFY18 levels in the coming quarters. However, having said that, we expect the overall margins to broadly remain healthy. We retain BUY on the stock with unchanged price target of Rs1,604
