Analyst calls
• CLSA has maintained a sell rating on TVS Motor Company with a target price of ₹360 after the company released its annual report for FY19. CLSA remains cautious on Indian two-wheelers given the weak demand environment, the sizeable regulatory cost push, and elevated competition. TVS delivered 27% growth in operating profit before tax (EBITDA) in FY19; however, operating cash flow fell 12% YoY as working capital deteriorated, said the brokerage. Its net debt also rose 17% YoY, said CLSA.

• Motilal Oswal maintained a buy rating on Brigade Enterprises with a target price of ₹316. In FY19, leasing operations contributed 11% to revenues, which should increase to 26% by FY21, said Motilal Oswal. It said that Brigade Enterprises’ commercial and residential growth prospects appear promising.

• ICICI Securities maintained a buy rating on Wonderla Holidays with a target price of ₹445 after an interaction with the management. After a weak FY19 for Kochi park (footfall down 14% year-onyear ) due to floods and Nipah virus, Wonderla has arrested footfall decline and expects a sharp turnaround in FY20, said ICICI Securities.

• Kotak Securities maintained a buy rating on Amber Enterprises with a target price of ₹976. With sustained demand trends and modest capex, the brokerage sees asset turnover rising in the coming years leading to enhanced returns on equity and returns on capital employed, said Kotak Securities.
