Key Opportunities
Urbanization is a critical factor driving the MSW generation
in the country. Changing lifestyle patterns, increasing disposable incomes,
have paved way for consumerism and, have also contributed to waste generation
in urban India. MSW generation is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% (FY 2018-23)
from 55 Million TPA in FY 2018 to reach 70 Million TPA by FY2023. The MSW
Management market is estimated at INR 30,000 Million for FY2018 and is expected
to reach INR 62,000 Million by FY 2023 at a CAGR of 15.6%. Increasing
participation of professional players in collection and transportation services
and development of scientific recycling and disposal methods for management of
MSW is expected to be key driver for the market.
To tackle the growing menace arising out of waste
generation, the Government has initiated several schemes at central, state, and
local levels. Focused attention toward development of urban infrastructure
received a boost with the implementation of Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban) entailing
an investment of ? 620.1 Billion. This has been a key boost to the industry.
Key Risks
The company is dependent on municipal authorities for their
revenues. Municipalities are inturn dependent on state budget allocations. Any
decline in budget allocation will have a material impact on the business.
The company depends on a limited number of customers for a
significant portion of their revenue. Top five clients contributed to over 90%
of their total revenue. Therefore the company has a high concentration risk.
The waste management industry is also very competitive with
20-30 players providing similar services. There are also various local
participants such as transport companies and small firm. Therefore the industry
is highly competitive.
Valuation
The company is valued at a price to earnings multiple of Rs
13 per share. There are no other listed players in the Municipal Solid waste
management industry in India. Overall the company has strong growth
opportunities but The IPO dates clashing with that of the SBI Cards IPO coupled
with the volatility around the coronavirus are key negatives currently. Therefore we suggest our clients to NOT
subscribe in this IPO. One can keep the stock in their watchlist and take
positions depending on the performance in the future.
