🔸BankNifty Resumption: The Bank Nifty/Nifty ratio is bottoming, indicating a likely relative outperformance from the #BFSI sector in the coming months.

The #auto industry saw significant activity this week, particularly around #hybridvehicles and pricing strategies. Here's a detailed breakdown of the events - A 🧵
🔸The Uttar Pradesh State Government reduced the registration fee for hybrid cars.
🔸Strong hybrids are now treated like electric vehicles (EVs) in terms of registration benefits, leading to zero registration fees for strong hybrids.
🔸This caused a significant drop in the on-road prices of strong hybrids in the state, approximately 10%.
🔸With Uttar Pradesh being the second-largest market for passenger vehicles (PV) in India, accounting for about 10% of total sales, this move is expected to boost the sales of hybrid cars significantly.
Industry-wide Price Cuts
🔸The price reductions are driven by high channel inventory, estimated at ₹60,000 crore, representing over 60 days of inventory versus a healthy run-rate of around 30 days.
M&M's Price Reduction
🔸Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) reduced the price of the XUV 700 AX7 variant by ₹1.5-2.2 lakh, labeling it as a celebration offer after reaching a sales milestone of 2 lakh units.
🔸Despite the price cut, M&M's stock fell by 7% as the XUV 700 is a flagship product with an order backlog of around 16,000 units as of May 2024 and a monthly booking rate of approximately 8,000 units versus a capacity of 7,000 units per month.
🔸M&M later clarified that the price cut is part of their strategy to drive growth by reducing the average price point of the XUV 700.
🔸The price cut is for a limited period of four months, and they do not expect any significant financial impact from this move.
🔸Demand for the #XUV700 remains strong, with June bookings up 23% month-over-month.
Tata Motors' Price Reduction
🔸#TataMotors reduced prices of the Harrier and Safari models by ₹50,000-70,000 per unit and offered additional benefits.
💹Indian agrochemical industry at the cusp of a turnaround? A 🧵covering:
🔸Current state of agrochemical industry
🔸Industry growth drivers
🔸Management commentary from US Agrochem MNCs
🔸Global demand boost
🔸How will Indian companies benefit from this?
🔸Companies you should look at
🔸Key risks
1/9
Where does agrochemical industry stand?👨🌾
🔸In 2021 and 2022, the agrochemical sales boomed thanks to high chemical prices and steady demand
🔸On top of this, supply-chain disruptions i.e. lower raw material prices, led to higher profitability
🔸However, in 2023, profitability dropped as supply chains normalized & raw material prices increased
🔸China's dumping of cheaper supplies globally worsened the industry's downturn in early 2024
2/9
What will drive growth?🚀
🔸With many companies shutting down due to lower profitability, the situation is now turning around as inventory levels are lower than steady demand
🔸As a result, prices are expected to rise, which will boost profitability
🔸US agrochemical companies prefer to outsource cheaper supply & become asset-light
🔸This shift will benefit Indian agrochemical companies by expanding their addressable market

💡Decoding the move
The fund infusion and increase in stake suggests promoters' conviction and focus on cement business.
🔸This would also help Ambuja Cement in meeting its capex requirements through internal accruals.
🔸Company’s balance sheet is already strong with cash & bank balance at ₹8500 crore as of Dec-23.
🔸Ambuja plans to increase its consolidated capacity to 140 mtpa by FY28E from 77.6 mtpa at present which implies ~16% CAGR.
🔸Adani Cement targets to increase its market share to 20% by FY28 (from current 14%).
🔸Moreover, company is also in process of investing significantly in other operational efficiency measures like:
- optimizing raw material cost
- increasing share of green power
- non-fossil fuels
- logistical efficiency
📈 View
We believe that both Ambuja & ACC would benefit significantly in the coming period in terms of
🔸Strong volume growth led by aggressive capacity expansion plans
🔸Improvement in margins led by operational efficiency measures and positive operating leverage
