Export/GDP

Why India? Supply-constrained and low costNew supply is coming online: Although India was a net importer of steel, this can change with JSW, Tata and Essar’s new capacity coming online. India will remain a net importer of coal and power deficit at 14.5%.Demand growing – though can’t outpace supply: GDP forecast at 8.5%. Cement demand grew at 7%, and steel demand grew at 6% YTD.Lowest-cost producers: Integrated nature of companies, nearer to market and low labour cost advantage.Free – resources: The Indian government is allocating resources free of cost to whoever is willing to put up employment-generating finishing lines. 20billion t of thermal coal reserves allocated.

Policy changes to empower growthChanging regulation and policies: Lots of changes proposed with upcoming new mining policy.

Streamlining the process, reducing time taken to allocate

Auction/bidding of ore bodies delineated by government agencies

Controversial change of sharing 26% of mine profits

Linking royalty rates to market prices

Haves and have nots: Most companies are facing intense competition getting resources.This has created a significant divergence in profitability of growth. Most companies have also faced issues with land acquisition, environmental clearances, etc.

Key winners here will likely be companies that already have large resources and that should gain in value once auctioning of government explored mineral deposits starts, as per the new policy.

Steel – high iron ore prices add to competitive advantage

Demand weak but seems to be stabilizing: Demand was hit by liquidity tightening but now seems to be stabilizing, albeit at a slower pace. Indian steel prices have stabilized post a decline in April and are now at a discount to import parity price.

New supply coming online: However, the Indian steel industry is likely to witness almost 10mnt of capacity addition and slower demand this year, but still should be able to operate at full capacity as gross imports stand at 7–8mnt, which can be substituted.

Raw material advantage: Most companies have captive iron ore that costs US$20–25/t against US$150–160/t CIF China. Advantage of US$180/t of steel.

Key Ideas: Jindal Steel and Power (JSP IN, Rs656, OP, TP: Rs938) and JSW Steel (JSTL IN, Rs965, OP, TP: Rs1,229). We like JSP and JSW Steel, for which our earnings estimates are well above consensus. Tata Steel is a leveraged play on the steel cycle, while SAIL lacks a positive catalyst in the near term and we think can be avoided currently.

Non-Ferrous – Volume, volume and volume

Aluminium – the key base metal in India: India currently has capacity of 1.5mt, and the capacity is being increased to 3mt by FY15 by players like Hindalco. The biggest concern is allocation of bauxite and coal mines, which are in the interior of India. Aluminium seems to be peaking out, and we remain cautious to the possibility of unwinding of inventory as interest rate cycle reverses. Hindalco, with 65% of earnings coming from the rolling business, remains our hedged play on aluminium.

Copper – lack of concentrate: India continues to import concentrate due to a lack of availability.

Zinc – low cost expansions: India is one of the lowest cost producers of zinc, and capacity expansion by Hindustan Zinc has increased capacity from 600kt to 850kt. We think zinc prices have corrected quite a bit and are near the marginal cost of production.

Key ideas: Sterlite (STLT IN, Rs173, OP, TP: Rs234). Our preferred play on zinc is Sterlite, which has other catalysts too.

Hindalco – sizable expansion, resources in place

Novelis recovery aided by end of old price ceiling contracts and cost cutting.

Hindalco looking to triple its aluminium capacity to 1.5mtpa. Has been allocated 200mnt of bauxite and coal.

Funding issues settled, but might need some more debt to complete the capex.

Nalco – looking expensive and no triggersExtremely expensive: Trading at a 20x PER on FY11E. Even on P/B, we think it is difficult to justify 2x given the single-digit return on equity.

Capacity enhancement at wrong time: Capacity increasing by 30%, when aluminium prices are near cost of production.

Future expansions are prohibitively expensive: Nalco’s future smelters and refineries are coming up at almost double the cost of its Indian competitors.

Coking coal – Lack of resources

Steel production growth to drive demand: India’s steel demand is expected to grow by more than 10% in the next few years, and the coking coal requirement will increase from 25mt currently to 45mt by FY13E.

Supply shortfall: Domestic supply is not increasing in line, resulting in a shortfall of close to 30-35mt, which will have to be sourced from imports.

Global prices to remain strong: The $300/t FOB Australia settlement represents a premium over cost support and short supply due to floods in Australia. This also is reflecting the goodwill toward coking coal and the ‘supply risk’ premium. We expect prices to remain strong as global steel production recovers.

Gujarat NRE Coke – story of backward integrationIndia’s largest independent LAM coke producer: GNC is India’s largest non-captive producer of low-ash metallurgical coke with a total capacity of 1mtpa.

Backward integration: To escape the volatility of processing margins, the company acquired coking coal mines (only raw material) in NSW, Australia.

Reserves of ~650mt: The mines contain nearly 650mt of primary hard coking coal, which are still in scarcity and whose prices went up more than three times last year.

Coal India – Igniting India with CoalCoal India Limited (CIL) is the world’s largest coal company and India’s largest corporate employer, with nearly 400k employees. It has total coal resources of over 65bn tonnes. It has been producing at a CAGR of 5.5% for the past decade and is expected to fuel India with 454mt of coal in FY12.While we like the assets of Coal India, we are maintaining our Neutral rating. There could be downside risk to earnings if Coal India is not allowed to increase prices in view of rising inflation.CIL management has been very categorical in maintaining that it will increase prices only to maintain margins. The recent price increase was to prepare for the upcoming cost increase due to the upcoming 5yr wage agreement. So any expectations for a coal price hike for the next 12-15 months looks very optimistic. We are building in US$8.3/t and a 31% margin, and we are slightly lower than consensus.CIL is now holding 70mnt of inventory, which is well above the 45mnt on normalised basis. Every 10mnt increase in sales is a small 2.5% increase in profits. We seriously doubt Indian railways’ ability to provide more rakes to lift coal, as they already have to increase rakes for the increase in production projected for FY12. In a worst-case scenario, some of this coal can catch fire and could be lost, as post monsoon, moisture trapped in the coal heaps acts as catalyst for ignition when the sun heats it up.

Iron Ore – Exports to recover

Reserves of 22bn tonnes. India produces close to 220m tonnes per year, and about 50% of iron ore production is exported annually from India, with China being the biggest consumer.

Exports have been weak but will recover: Exports have been low due to monsoons as well as the ban imposed by Karnataka on transport of ore for exports. However, as a resolution is reached between iron ore exporters and the government, we expect exports will recover.

Medium term: We remain positive on iron ore as we believe steel production will remain strong and demand for iron ore will see growth.

Key Idea: NMDC (NMDC IN, Rs270, OP, TP: Rs289)
