Set to Take Advantage of Indian Logistics Boom

Recommendation (Rs.)

Company’s wide spread infrastructure and revival in the economy to boost revenue growth

Target Price

The company has strong pan india presence with 1400 branches covering 17000 locations both in India and abroad. It has 9000 trucks/trailers and rail connectivity through JV with India’s leading container logistics company Concor. As per the World bank estimates, India’s GDP is expected to grow around 8% in FY16E and FY17E and this would directly benefit the logistics industry which is expected to grow at 1.5 to 2 times of the GDP growth.

Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) and Express Services to drive revenue and profit growth In the next two years, the top-line of the company is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15% on the back of 20% growth in TCI-SCS and 17% growth in TCI-XPS business. In the last eight years, the company has made capital expenditure of ~Rs.7385mn in expanding its market reach by setting up warehouses, hubs and increasing its fleets in the TCI-SCS for strategic purposes. Key growth driver for the TCI-XPS would be the fast growing e-commerce business in india. E-commerce industry is growing at CAGR of 34% since 2009 to $16 bn in 2014 and is expected to reach $22Bn by 2015. Meanwhile, the overall economic growth and revival in the automobile industry are expected to drive growth of TCI-SCS.

The management of the company has shifted its focus towards high value logistics business from basic freight business. In 1996, the company introduced TCI-XPS, the company’s express servicing division. In 1999, the company entered into joint venture with Mitsui and Co of Japan for providing automobile logistics and today the company has separate division TCI-SCS. The division provides single window customized solutions, for key verticals such as Auto, Retail, Telecom, Electricals, Pharmaceuticals, FMCG, Record Management and Cold Chain. The revenue contributions from both the divisions are fast growing and they also operate at high EBITDA margins.

The revenue contribution from TCI-XPS is increasing every year and the business is growing at a CAGR of ~12% in the last eight years. The revenue contribution has increased to ~30% in FY15 from ~24% in FY07. Going forward, the segment is expected to continue the growth momentum on the back of revival in the economy and robust outlook for the E-commerce in India. The segment provides services to both B2B and B2C customers with coverage in 13000 locations in India and 200 locations out-side India. In the Business-to-Consume (B2C) segment, the company provides last mile delivery to the E-Commerce customers and in the Business-to- Business (B2B) segment, it caters to industries like Pharma, Auto Ancillary, Consumer Durables, Apparels, FMCG etc.

The profit margin for the division is in the range of 7% to 10% and the company is further focusing on improving the profit margins by higher capacity utilization going forward. In FY15, the margins were under pressure due to the hike in the diesel prices. Even though there was sell-off in the crude prices, the impact was not seen in FY15 due to the lag effect. The benefit of falling crude oil prices would be visible in this year. Moreover, the company does not own any trucks in this division and all are vendor based thereby making it asset light. In FY15, the company managed to reduce the operating cost by 20bps and the transit time was also reduced by almost 50%, thereby giving the company an operational efficiency.

TCI SCS division of the company is the front runner in driving the revenue and the profitability of the company. In the last eight years, the division has grown at CAGR of 27%. The revenue contribution of the division has increased to ~28% in FY15 from just ~10% in FY07. Some sluggishness was there in FY14 when the revenue grew just by 3% due to overall economic slowdown and tepid demand for auto industry. Currently, automobile industry accounts for almost 75% of the division’s total sales, thus the revival in India’s auto industry has helped the company to report 12% revenue growth in FY15. Going forward, the outlook for the division is robust as the demand outlook for the automobile is gearing up. E-Commerce is the other segment which

Source: Company, Karvy Research

would contribute in driving the business growth for the division. The company provides management of fulfillment centers and backend operation for the E-commerce. It currently has 8 fulfillment centers with an handling capacity of 100000 unique orders and 20000 deliveries per day. Other sectors which would drive the revenue for the company are the FMCG, Hi Tech & Telecom, Health Care, Retail & Consumer Products and Cold Chain. In this segment, the company owns 1100 trucks which include 34 reefer vehicles and has 10.5 Mn sq. ft. of warehouses with own storage and material handling infrastructure to provide seamless services to its customers. Apart from transportation, the division also provides warehouse management service to its customers. The reefers vehicles of the company are mostly dedicated to pharma industry were the margins are high and less to the food industry.

Transystem Logistics International, a joint venture between TCI and Mitsui & Co. Ltd This JV was formed in 1999 to provide exclusive logistics services of both inbound and outbound logistics to the Toyota Kirloskar Motors Ltd. in India. This was the first step for the company to enter into supply chain solution services. In this joint venture, TCI holds 49% stake and the remaining is with Mitsui & co. Today, transystem logistics provide complete logistics solutions to multiple auto and machinery manufacturers, which include inbound, outbound, warehousing, multimodal logistics etc.

After two years of subdued growth, India’s auto industry has started to witness revival in growth. Domestic auto sales in FY11 and FY12 grew at 26% and 12% respectively but it started to decline in FY13, growing at 2% and in FY14 it grew at 4%, however in FY15 it grew by 7%. In FY15, the industry witnessed broad based recovery, with Passenger Vehicles (PV) growing around 4%, after reporting de-growth of 6% in FY14. Three wheelers and two wheelers both report healthy growth of 11% and 8% respectively. However, the Commercial Vehicles (CV) sales declined by 3%, which is better than 20% decline reported in FY14. During the period between April 2015 to July 2015, passenger vehicle sales grew by 7.46%

Source: SIAM, Karvy Research

sale of Commercial Vehicles grew by 5.63%. However, the sale of two wheelers and three wheelers were flat. This clearly suggests that the automobile sector is all set for the next leg of growth, on the back of government initiative for Make in India, low commodity prices etc. In the auto segment, TCI services companies like Maruti, VW Group, Tata Motors, Hero and Bajaj.

Fast growing E-commerce to drive TCI-XPS and TCI SCS business growth E-commerce industry in India is fast growing and growth potential is huge as the country is still at the nascent stage. As per the PWC report, since 2009, the e-commerce industry in India has grown at a CAGR of 34% to $16.4 bn and is expected to reach $22 bn by 2015. Within this, e-tailing which includes online retail and online marketplace, has been growing at CAGR of 54% to $3.5 bn and by 2015, it is expected to be around $6 bn. Currently, the contribution of e-tailing in india is very low at 0.4% and it is expected to increase to 3% by 2020. Key driving factor for the e-commerce in India is very low internet penetration at 19% of the total population. Internet users in India stand at ~243 Mn, which is very low in comparison to China where it is around 641Mn. In the last couple of years, the company has been investing heavily on hubs and fulfillment centers. 4

In FY15, the Indian economy grew ~7.5% and as per the World Bank estimates, India’s GDP is expected to grow around 8% in FY16E and FY17E. Empirical evidence suggests that the Indian Logistics industry grows at 1.5 to 2 times the GDP, thus revival in the economy will directly contribute to the growth of overall logistics industry. TCI will be the clear beneficiary as it is currently transporting 2.5% of the India’s GDP by value. The company has strong pan India presence with 1400 own branch network, covering 99.5% of the GDP area. It has around 2400 trucks and trailers providing freight movement services on daily basis. TCI freight division provides integrated multi-modal solution. The service includes Full Truck Load (FTL) to Less than Truck Load (LTL), Sundry and Project Heavy Haul (PHH). The profit margin in the segment is very low as the segment is highly unorganized with large number of small players in order to improve the profit margin of company and is focusing on high margin, like Sundry & Less than Truck Load (LTL) business, to utilize the fixed cost of branches, hubs and manpower.

TCI-CONCOR Multimodal Solutions Pvt. Ltd., joint venture between TCI and CONCOR In 2010, TCI and Container Corporation of India (Concor), a leading container logistics company of India, together formed a joint venture company to provide bulk integrated multi-modal logistics solution by rail and road. In the JV, TCI holds 51% stake and the remaining 49% is held with Concor. In the joint venture, TCI is dedicated to the first and the last mile delivery of the cargo and the rail transportation is carried out by Concor. With this JV, TCI is in a position to provide cost efficiency and time bound rail – road solution.

Company is asset light and enjoys Economies of scale Over the years, the company has built strong infrastructure to provide integrated multi-modal logistics services to its marquee customers like Maruti, VW Group, Tata Motors, Hero, Bajaj, Hindustan Unilever, Samsung among others. As on June 2015, the company operates with over 9000 trucks/trailers/reefer vehicles, 10.5 Mn sq. ft. of warehouse space, it has 1400 company owned branches and has deep market penetration with coverage in 17000 locations both in India and abroad. TCI freight is equipped to carry cargo of any dimensions and size right from Full Truck Load (FTL)/ Less than Truck Load (LTL)/ Sundry, Project & Heavy Haul (PHH) and Rail. The availability of robust infrastructure provides economies of scale to the company. Meanwhile, the company follows the method of not owning every asset it requires and makes the company’s balance sheet healthy. Out of the 9000 fleet, the company owns only 1100 trucks and out of the 10.5 Mn sq. ft. of warehouses less than 20% is owned by the company.

Capacity expansion in TCI Seaways to drive revenue and profit growth of the company Currently, the company has four ships with a total capacity of ~23317 Dead Weight Tonnes (DWT). It also owns 2047 marine containers. In FY15, the company added one more ship with a capacity of 10545 DWT and in FY16E, the company further plans to invest Rs. 22 Mn in ships and containers. Three ships with a capacity of 4000-4500 DWT each are operational in the east coast from Vizag - Chennai to Andamans. These ships of the company are multipurpose vessels, moving container as well as non-containerized cargo. The new ship, TCI Arjun, is scheduled to be operational in the west coast of India from mundra to Cochin. All the earnings of the business are in rupees so it is not linked to international freight index like Baltic dry index etc. Although the revenue contribution from the division is low at ~5%, the EBITDA margin of the division is high, around 27%, and is contributing ~17% of the company’s total EBITDA.

Government Initiatives to drive logistics industry growth yyImplementation of Goods and Service Tax (GST) would lead to rationalization of tax, consolidation in the warehouseing and concentration in the transportation.

yyFocus on building robust infrastructure: Dedicated freight corridor / Diamond Quadrilateral would create additional capacity thereby reducing unit cost of transportation and increasing multi-modal transportation of bulk cargo. yyMake-in-India Initiatives: Improve disposable income and increase consumption expenditure.

EBITDA (Rs. Mn) EBITDA Growth (%) EBITDA Margin (%)

Going forward, it is expected that the EBITDA margin to improve because of higher revenue contribution from the divisions like TCI-SCS and TCI-XPS which operate at higher margin as compared to TCI-Freight where the margins are very low. The company is also expanding its TCI seaways by adding ships and containers. This divison operates with very high profit margins in FY15; the EBITDA margin from TCI seaways was around 27%. Moreover, fall in the crude oil prices would further help in improving the margins.

The company follows asset light business model by not owning every asset it requires, therefore the company maintains healthy return ratios eventhough the margins are not very high in the logistic business. In the last couple of years, the company has been investing in building its infrastructure to gain market share and expand its business throughout the country. Better revenue mix and higher utilization are expected to drive the return ratio going forward.

Aug 27, 2015 Transport Corporation of India Ltd

Valuation & Outlook TCI-SCS and TCI-XPS are going to be the next key driving factors for the company going forward. In the last couple of years, the company has built robust infrastructure and has developed pan India presence. In the next two years, the company is planning to build more warehouses, hubs and trucks to benefit from the expected revival in the overall Indian economy and fast growing e-commerce industry. Government initiatives like development of robust infrastructure, Make-in-India, implementation of GST (under progress) would have direct benefit for the large logistics players like TCI. At CMP of Rs. 225, the stock is trading at P/Ex of 18.0x and 14.9x of FY16E and FY17E earnings. We thus recommend to “BUY” the stock with a price target of Rs. 300, with an upside potential of 33%.
