The company plans to add ~14GW of capacity in the XII plan. In addition to generation, it also provides consultancy services and has a subsidiary named, NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam, is engaged in power trading. Apart from this, NTPC has also entered into JVs for different businesses—with Singareni Collieries for coal mining, BHEL for equipment manufacturing, and Transformers & Electricals Kerala (TELK) for repairs and maintenance. Investment Rationale Ample of scope ahead with capacity increment With target capacity addition of around 7,700 MW in next 3 years, we expect a high growth period for NTPC in coming years as incremental power capacity to provide incremental earnings for the company. With better funds ava ilability and declining concerns on receivables and introduction of fuel and power purchase adjustment mechanism, NTPC is thus better placed than other developers - both on the operational and the financial front. Capacity to subside the fuel risk NTPC has been able to receive 100% of ACQ (Annual Contracted Quantity) of coal against LoAs despite concerns of domestic availability and Coal India’s low growth in output. With Coal India increasing its output in addition to contribution from NTPC’s captive mines starting from FY14, we believe that NTPC will be able to subside the risk of unavailability of fuel Worst over, improvement in hindsight NTPC has consistently reported PAF (Plant Availability Factor) of more than 90% against required 85%. We expect coal-based PAF to improve in FY14 and FY15 to around more than 92% from 88% in FY13 with increase in domestic coal production, contribution from captive coal mines and usage of imported coal as the inland waterways for coal transportation to Farakka and Kahalgaon stations get commissioned. Strong balance sheet NTPC’s FY12 Numbers: Net debt/equity: 0.6x Interest coverage ratio: 7.14x NTPC’s debt service coverage ratio at 3.21x Valuation & Recommendation At the CMP of `155, the stock is trading at 1.48x FY14 P/B. We believe that it is definitely the contender for higher valuation from present levels as more than 90% of its profitability is shielded due to regulated model. In addition to this there is huge confidence on NTPC’s expansion plans as compared to private sectors, which is also aided by increasing clarity about availability of fuel. We expect the stock to trade at 1.75x FY14 P/BV, which we believe is justified given its regulated return profile which provides limited downside. Recommend Subscribe to the Offer for Sale.

Company Background

NTPC, set up in 1975, is India’s largest power generation company with 39,674 MW insta

capacity (including 4,364 MW from JV’s). The company plans to add ~14GW of capacity in the

plan. In addition to generation, it also provides consultancy services and has a subsidiary namNTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam, is engaged in power trading. Apart from this, NTPC has also ente

into JVs for different businesses—with Singareni Collieries for coal mining, BHEL for equipm

manufacturing, and Transformers & Electricals Kerala (TELK) for repairs and maintenance.

Investment Rationale

Ample of scope ahead with capacity increment

With target capacity addition of around 7,700 MW in next 3 years, we expect a high gro

period for NTPC in coming years as incremental power capacity to provide incremental earn

for the company. With better funds availability and declining concerns on receivables

introduction of fuel and power purchase adjustment mechanism, NTPC is thus better pla

than other developers - both on the operational and the financial front.

Capacity to subside the fuel risk

NTPC has been able to receive 100% of ACQ (Annual Contracted Quantity) of coal against L

despite concerns of domestic availability and Coal India’s low growth in output. With Coal I

increasing its output in addition to contribution from NTPC’s captive mines starting from FY

we believe that NTPC will be able to subside the risk of unavailability of fuel

Worst over, improvement in hindsight

NTPC has consistently reported PAF (Plant Availability Factor) of more than 90% against requ

85%. We expect coal-based PAF to improve in FY14 and FY15 to around more than 92% from

in FY13 with increase in domestic coal production, contribution from captive coal mines

usage of imported coal as the inland waterways for coal transportation to Farakka

Kahalgaon stations get commissioned.

Strong balance sheet

NTPC’s FY12 Numbers:

Net debt/equity: 0.6x

Interest coverage ratio: 7.14x

NTPC’s debt service coverage ratio at 3.21x

Valuation & Recommendation

At the CMP of `155, the stock is trading at 1.48x FY14 P/B. We believe that it is definitely

contender for higher valuation from present levels as more than 90% of its profitabilit

shielded due to regulated model. In addition to this there is huge confidence on NTP

expansion plans as compared to private sectors, which is also aided by increasing clarity ab

availability of fuel. We expect the stock to trade at 1.75x FY14 P/BV, which we believe

justified given its regulated return profile which provides limited downside. Recomm
