Mr. Naveen Trivedi, Institutional Research Analyst, HDFC Securities
TTK delivered a stellar performance as revenue/EBITDA grew by 24/42% YoY (HSIE 18/19%). Festive demand, improving consumer sentiments, pent-up benefits and ease out in supply chain issue supported the growth (even sustained in Jan-21 with 20% growth). E-comm remained the fastest growing channel, although all channels saw recovery, specifically MFIs. New launches performed well for the company and categories like dishwashers and chimneys will continue to drive premiumisation. Price hike (~9%) supported GM despite high RM pressure. Oplev and cost control led to the company clocking 10-year high EBITDA margin (17%). The performance in 3QFY21 is encouraging for TTK, which was weaker than peers in 1HFY21. We expect the company to sustain a healthy earnings trajectory supported by (1) improving consumer sentiments; (2) normalised trade inventory; (3) new launches aiding addressable market; (4) revival in MFIs and (5) favorable base. We increase our EPS estimates for FY22/FY23 by 6/5%. With improving visibility on earnings and having a pure B-C story, we increase target multiple to 38x (35x earlier) on Mar-23E EPS. Our target price is Rs 7,850. Maintain ADD.

Rural growth remained ahead of urban throughout 9MFY21. TTK introduced 25 new SKUs during the quarter. Exports grew by 50% YoY.
10 year high EBITDA margin: Gross margin contracted by 29bps YoY to 41.5% (-111bps in 3QFY20 and -258bps in 2QFY21) vs our expectation of 141bps YoY expansion. Employee/Other expenses grew by 6/16% YoY as operations normalized.
