#KMC My 10 min work. Thanks for initiating idea @Coolfundoo as this was not the stock I was mentioning.
Whenever I get new idea, i pass it to some of my in built tools and back of envelope calculation to check if its worth deep diving as we cant go in detail on evert stock
Coming to KMC, it has gone through major asset expansion in last 2 years and at visible potential, it should have Rs 100 Cr of net fixed asset
If we look at history, peak net fixed asset turnover has been 2.4 which means, it can do peak sales of Rs 240 cr (say achievable in 3 years from current TTM Rs 147 Cr, thats how usually hospitals scale)
Company currently works on 16% PAT margin. Let us assume a peak case and due to economies of scale, does 18% PAT margin at full revenue potential.
Most players trade at 40x PE. So, most optimistic PE, let us give 40x. This turns out to be most optimistic scenario with Rs 240 Cr
sales, 18% PAT margin = Rs 42 Cr PAT and 42*40 = Rs 1680 Cr market cap after 3 years, thats 19% CAGR
Now, let us take a pessimistic view. As it is new capex, may not be as efficient as old one (city real estate), so, let us say, it does 2.3x blender NFAT. so, Rs 230 Cr revenue.
Let us say, margin stays at same 16%. Let us say, market values it at 25% lesser than mean PE of 40x which is 30x. Now, we get Rs 230*.16 = Rs 37 Cr PAT and 37*30 = Rs 1110 Cr market cap which means a CAGR of 3.5%. So, reality may be somewhere in between
with 10-13% CAGR. Please note that I have not gone through any business level details and this is an approximate exercise just to test attractiveness.
If you have done any deep dive, please share your views with numbers and logic, that will help every reader.
Please note if you do not have rationale and just giving some random price targets, please avoid as it wastes everyone's time, you will be muted/blocked.
Looking for some serious contribution from those who track closely how they look at things panning our and why so. Thanks

#CNXIT History of IT Sector in India: A data-based perspective
In last 1.5 years, we witnessed a heavy price correction in IT sector. This is evident from CNXIT index movement which is 32% down in last 1.5 years (we kept cautioning repeatedly then)
Now, sector is also facing headwinds. Typically, this is how market behaves. Market is always ahead of reality. It tops when valuations highlight major froth, smart money slowly exits n new entrants think they know it all, are scapegoats. Companies r lowering their guidance.
Within a year, we have come from healthy double digit growth to low to mid single digit growth projection. Question is - Is it something new or there is something to learn from history?
History is an interesting subject and price is the first guide. Lets us look at history

If you do not look at data properly, it can hide right things and reveal wrong things. However, looking at data "properly" needs quite some effort which many do not want to do and social media has only worsened this trend of
providing the fastest information (let me bluntly say cut, copy, paste). The current data shared is a prime example of the same. So, let us look at this data. Few observations: 1. Absolute numbers may hide lot of things and there was no focus on metric like CAGR because it would
hide all the sensation. 2. No outlier treatment of the data (look at detailing of Infosys in 2012), that is must when one does this kind of exercise.
3. Salary hike is a performance exercise; however, no attention was given to performance analysis.
