Indian Stock market contains more than 20 stock exchanges, some of which are popular nationally as

well as regionally. The first stock market started in country was Bombay Stock Exchange(BSE ) stock

market. It’s the oldest stock market in Asia. It has around 5000 listings & a volume of more than US$

1 Trillion. The other most popular stock exchange is National Stock Exchange(NSE). Its also largest

Indian Capital Market.

Purpose of stock market?

Stock markets basic role to provide platform for the people of the country to invest their

savings & also a source of funds for the various institutions & organizations. It provides an opportunity

for any person to become a part owner of the company by buying the companies share. One can deal in

variety of financial instruments such as Equity, futures & options, currency future, commodities etc.

Present scenario-

Current condition of Stock Market has drastically improved. SENSEX has already crossed 17000 Mark & Nifty has crossed 5000 mark. We have seen that in the recession SENSEX has come down to 8000 point from 21000. But now market is gearing up & crossed 17000 points. Lot of people invest in stock market. Indian Stock Market has been giving average 19% return on investment much more than returns which we get from bank or any other sources. Though the Indian Stock Market can be very rewarding avenue of investment but the constant changes & the inherent dynamic changes in

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 9

Page 10: Summer projct

the market can wipe your funds or savings. Because market is very volatile. So every investor has to very alert & observant. People from across the country & globe get in touch with minute wise reading on the stock market & gain a lot of trading aptitude after daily seeing BSE Stop Gainers or BSE top losers list which does a world of good to their investment portfolio.

Stock AnalysisIndian Securities markets are touching new heights as it has surpassed 17,000 marks. More and

more investors are attracting towards equity investment and trading. But this is not always the case that

no one can assure you certain returns there is always uncertainty and risk in investment and that push

investors on back seats. Sometimes it becomes very difficult for investors to predict the share price of

the particular company in this very volatile market. It raises questions in investor’s mind that

At what price I should buy? When to sell it... hold?

As trading and investments are increasing on the markets as SEBI made it compulsory for all

the companies to disclose important information to its Shareholder and investor. So they can get as

possible as information about the companies of which they are holding the shares or going to buy.

now-a-days brokers and some analyst providing some future predictions of stocks price movements. So

now investment has become somewhat easy for investors.

This is done with a Stock Analysis getting the information about company and its price

movements on stock markets and tries to predict the value of shares. So, there is great importance of

stock analysis among investors. Stock analysis is usually done by Broking Firms. They recommends

there investors regarding buying & selling of shares.

Types of Stock Analysis-

1. Technical Analysis

2. Fundamental Analysis

Here we have selected a Fundamental analysis as subject of our project so we would do it in detail

with practical analysis. We would get only some flavor of technical analysis and then we would

understand about fundamental analysis.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS1

1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_analysis

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 10

Page 11: Summer projct

“Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing the statistics generated by market

activity, such as past prices and volume. Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's

intrinsic value, but instead use charts and other tools to identify patterns that can suggest future

activity.”

Just as there are many investment styles on the fundamental side, there are also many different types of

technical traders. Some rely on chart patterns; others use technical indicators and oscillators, and most

use some combination of the two. In any case, technical analysts' exclusive use of historical price and

volume data is what separates them from their fundamental counterparts. Unlike fundamental analysts,

technical analysts don't care whether a stock is undervalued - the only thing that matters is a security's

past trading data and what information this data can provide about where the security might move in

the future. Technical analysis is very useful for short term investors.

The field of technical analysis is based on three assumptions: 2

1.     The Market discounts everything.

2.     Price moves in trends.

3.     History tends to repeat itself.

1. The Market Discounts Everything

A major criticism of technical analysis is that it only considers price movement, ignoring

the fundamental factors of the company. However, technical analysis assumes that, at any given time, a

stock's price reflects everything that has or could affect the company - including fundamental factors.

Technical analysts believe that the company's fundamentals, along with broader economic factors and

market psychology , are all priced into the stock, removing the need to actually consider these factors

separately. This only leaves the analysis of price movement, which technical theory views as a product

of the supply and demand for a particular stock in the market.

2. Price Moves in Trends

In technical analysis, price movements are believed to follow trends. This means that after a trend has 2 ttp://www.tradegreeks.com/articles/Article-Technical-Analysis-Indepth1.htm

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 11

Page 12: Summer projct

been established, the future price movement is more likely to be in the same direction as the trend than

to be against it. Most technical trading strategies are based on this assumption.

3. History Tends To Repeat Itself

Another important idea in technical analysis is that history tends to repeat itself, mainly in terms of

price movement. The repetitive nature of price movements is attributed to market psychology; in other

words, market participants tend to provide a consistent reaction to similar market stimuli over time.

Technical analysis uses chart patterns to analyze market movements and understand trends. Although

many of these charts have been used for more than 100 years, they are still believed to be relevant

because they illustrate patterns in price movements that often repeat themselves.

Other Usage

Technical analysis can be used on any security with historical trading data. This includes stocks, futures

and commodities, fixed-income securities, forex, etc. these concepts can be applied to any type of

security. In fact, technical analysis is more frequently associated with commodities and forex, where

the participants are predominantly traders.

Strengths of Technical Analysis3

Focus on Price

If the objective is to predict the future price, then it makes sense to focus on price movements. Price

movements usually precede fundamental developments. By focusing on price action, technicians are

automatically focusing on the future. The market is thought of as a leading indicator and generally

leads the economy by 6 to 9 months. To keep pace with the market, it makes sense to look directly at

the price movements. More often than not, change is a subtle beast. Even though the market is prone to

sudden knee-jerk reactions, hints usually develop before significant moves. A technician will refer to

periods of accumulation as evidence of an impending advance and periods of distribution as evidence

of an impending decline.

3 ttp://www.tradegreeks.com/articles/Article-Technical-Analysis-Indepth1.htm

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 12

Page 13: Summer projct

Supply, Demand, and Price Action

Many technicians use the open, high, low and close when analyzing the price action of a security.

Separately, these will not be able to tell much. However, taken together, the open, high, low and close

reflect forces of supply and demand.

Before the open, the number of buy orders exceeded the number of sell orders and the price was

raised to attract more sellers. Demand was brisk from the start. The intraday high reflects the strength

of demand (buyers). The intraday low reflects the availability of supply (sellers). The close represents

the final price agreed upon by the buyers and the sellers. Even after this selling pressure, the close

remained above the open. higher prices reflect increased demand and lower prices reflect increased

supply.

Support/Resistance

Simple chart analysis can help identify support and resistance levels. These are usually marked by

periods of congestion (trading range) where the prices move within a confined range for an extended

period, telling us that the forces of supply and demand are deadlocked. When prices move out of the

trading range, it signals that either supply or demand has started to get the upper hand. If prices move

above the upper band of the trading range, then demand is winning. If prices move below the lower

band, then supply is winning.

Pictorial Price History

A price chart can offer plenty of valuable information. The price chart is an easy to read historical

account of a security's price movement over a period of time. Charts are much easier to read than a

table of numbers. On most stock charts, volume bars are displayed at the bottom. With this historical

picture, it is easy to identify the following:

Reactions prior to and after important events.

Past and present volatility.

Historical volume or trading levels.

Relative strength of a stock versus the overall market.

Assist with Entry Point

Technical analysis can help with timing a proper entry point. Someanalysts use fundamental

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 13

Page 14: Summer projct

analysis to decide what to buy and technical analysis to decide when to buy. It is no secret that timing

can play an important role in performance. Technical analysis can help spot demand (support) and

supply (resistance) levels as well as breakouts. Simply waiting for a breakout above resistance or

buying near support levels can improve returns.

Weaknesses of Technical Analysis

Analyst Bias

Just as with fundamental analysis, technical analysis is subjective and our personal biases can be

reflected in the analysis. It is important to be aware of these biases when analyzing a chart. If the

analyst is a perpetual bull, then a bullish bias will overshadow the analysis. On the other hand, if the

analyst is a disgruntled eternal bear, then the analysis will probably have a bearish tilt.

Open to Interpretation

Furthering the bias argument is the fact that technical analysis is open to interpretation. Even though

there are standards, many times two technicians will look at the same chart and paint two different

scenarios or see different patterns. Both will be able to come up with logical support and resistance

levels as well as key breaks to justify their position. While this can be frustrating, it should be pointed

out that technical analysis is more like an art than a science, somewhat like economics. Is the cup half-

empty or half-full? It is in the eye of the beholder.

Too Late

Technical analysis has been criticized for being too late. By the time the trend is identified, a

substantial portion of the move has already taken place. After such a large move, the reward to risk

ratio is not great. Lateness is a particular criticism of Dow theory.

Predictions may go wrong-

Sometimes predictions may go wrong. Analysis is done only by charts & past trends. Generally if a

particular stock going up it is predicted that this stock will go up in future also. If a stock of a particular

company increasing from last 1 year it is not sure that it will increase in future also. It may go down if

the company fails to perform well or any other economic reason.

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 14

Page 15: Summer projct

Fundamental Analysis

Meaning: -Fundamental analysis is the examination of the underlying forces that affect the

wellbeing of the economy, industry groups, and companies. As with most analysis, the goal is to

derive a forecast and profit from future price movements.

At the company level, fundamental analysis may involve examination of financial data, man-

agement, business concept and competition.

At the industry level, there might be an examination of supply and demand forces for the

products offered.

For the national economy, fundamental analysis might focus on economic data to assess the

present and future growth of the economy.

Strengths of Fundamental Analysis

Useful for Long-term-

Fundamental analysis is good for long-term investments based on long-term. It is very

important for those who wants to invest in market for long term.

Value prediction-

Sound fundamental analysis help to identify companies that represent a good value. Some of

the most legendary investors think long-term and value. Graham and Dodd, Warren Buffett and

John Neff are seen as the champions of value investing.

Business Accuracy-

Fundamental analysis is the development of a thorough understanding of the business. After

research and analysis, an investor will be familiar with the key revenue and profit drivers

behind a company. Earnings and earnings expectations can be main drivers of equity prices. A

good understanding can help investors avoid companies that are to be going to shortfalls and

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 15

Page 16: Summer projct

identify those that continue to deliver.

Weaknesses of Fundamental Analysis4

Time Constraints

Fundamental analysis may offer excellent insights, but it can be extraordinarily time-

consuming. It requires lot of research.

Industry/Company Specific

Valuation techniques vary depending on the industry group and specifics of each company. For

this reason, a different technique and model is required for different industries and different

companies. This can get quite time-consuming, which can limit the amount of research that can

be performed. A subscription-based model may work great for an Internet Service Provider

(ISP), but is not likely to be the best model to value an oil company.

Subjectivity

Fair value is based on assumptions. Any changes to growth or assumptions can greatly alter the

ultimate valuation. & i will cause loss to the investors.

Economic Analysis-

The purpose of analyze economic condition of the country in fundamental analysis to asses the

general economic situation both within the country and inter nationally.

The economy is like the tide and the various industry groups and individual companies are like

boats. When economy expands most industry groups and companies benefits and grows. When the

4 http://www.tradegreeks.com/articles/Article-Fundamental-Analysis-Indepth1.htm

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 16

Page 17: Summer projct

economy declines, most sectors and companies usually suffer. The stock market does not operate in a

vacuum it is an integral part of ht whole economy of a country, more so in a free economy that of

United States and to some extent in mixed economy like ours.

To gain an insight into the complexities of stock market. One needs to develop a sound

economic understanding and be able to interpret the impact of important economic indicators on stock

markets.

The following are some important factors which should be taken into account while doing

fundamental analysis:

Economic Growth

Per capita income

Industrial Production

Inflation

Interest Rates

Foreign Exchange Reserves

Budgetary Deficit

Domestic Savings and Investment

Tax Rates

Infrastructure

Political Situation

In absolute terms, India is 16th in the world in terms of nominal factory output. The service

sector is growing rapidly in the past few years. This is the pie- chart showing contributions of different

sectors in Indian economy. The per capita Income is near about Rs38,000 reflecting improvement in the

living standards of an average Indian.

Today, automobile sector in India is one of the key sectors of the economy in terms of the

employment. Directly and indirectly it employs more than 10 million people and if we add the number

of people employed in the auto-component and auto ancillary industry then the number goes even

higher.

Figure 1: Composition of GDP by industries(08-09)

India GDP Growth Rate-

India Gross Domestic Product (GDP) expanded 8.5% over the last quarter. The India Gross Domestic Product is worth 1217 billion dollars or 1.96% of the world economy, according to the World Bank

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 18

Page 19: Summer projct

Figure 2: Quarterly GDP growth

Contribution of automobile sector in GDP is about 5% & will be doubled by 2016.

FDI(Foreign Direct Investment)

In India FDI has been permitted up to 100% in automobile sector. Which has led to a turnover

of USD 12 billion in Indian Auto industry & USD 3 billion in auto parts industry. Manufacturing cost

in India is 25% to 30% lower than there foreign counterparts. Investment commission has set a target of

US $ 5 billion in next 7 years to increase the share of India in global Auto market. From existing .9 %

to 2.5 % by 2015.

Highlights of 2010-11 budget regarding Automobile Industry-

The correction in Excise duty on Electric Vehicles which will enable the manufacturers take

CENVAT credit and exemption of Customs duty on Electric Vehicles parts.

Payment made to an approved association engaged in research in Social Sciences or Statistical

Research will be allowed as a weighted deduction of 125 per cent. The income of such ap-

proved research association shall be exempted from tax.

increase in weighted deduction for in-house R&D to 200% from 150% and outsourced R&D

from 125% to 175%.

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 19

Page 20: Summer projct

2% hike in Excise duty

The budget did not meet all the expectations as the sector is yet to recover fully from

recession.

Indian automobile industry is expected to grow at 9-11 % in near future.

From the above analysis we have seen that our economic condition is preferable to Automobile

Industry.

Industry Analysis

Brief history of Automobile Industry - In 1898 car had touched the Indian streets for the first time. The Automobile Industry in India

is the seventh largest in the world with an annual production of over 2.6 million units in 2009. In 2009,

India emerged as Asia's fourth largest exporter of automobiles, behind Japan, South Korea and

Thailand. By 2050, the country is expected to top the world in car volumes with approximately 611

million vehicles on the nations road.

Following economic liberalization in India in 1991, allowed foreign companies to enter into

India for the business purpose. The Indian automotive industry has demonstrated sustained growth as

a result of increased competitiveness and relaxed restrictions. Several Indian automobile manufacturers

such as Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki and Mahindra and Mahindra, expanded their domestic and

international operations. In February 2009, monthly sales of passenger cars in India exceeded 100,000

units.

India’s automobile sector consists of the passenger cars and utility vehicles, commercial

vehicle, two wheelers and tractors segment. The total market size of the auto sector in India is

approximately RS. 540 billion and has been growing at around 8 percent per annum for the last few

years. Since the last four to five years, the two wheelers segment has driven the overall volume growth

on account of the spurt in the sales of motorcycles. However, lately the passenger cars and commercial

vehicles segment has also seen a good growth due to high discounts, lower financing rates and a pickup

in industrial activity respectively.

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 20

Page 21: Summer projct

In the initial years after independence Indian automobile industry was plagued by unfavorable

government policies. All it had to offer in the passenger car segment was a 1940s Morris model called

the Ambassador and a 1960s Suzuki-derived model called the Maruti 800. The automobile sector in

India underwent a metamorphosis as a result of the liberalization policies initiated in the 1991.

Measures such as relaxation of the foreign exchange and equity regulations, reduction of tariffs on

imports, and refining the banking policies played a vital role in turning around the Indian

automobileindustry. Until the mid 1990s, the Indian auto sector consisted of just a handful of local

companies. However, after the sector opened to foreign direct investment in 1996, global majors moved

in. Automobile industry in India also received an unintended boost from stringent government auto

emission regulations over the past few years. This ensured that vehicles produced in India conformed to

the standards of the developed world.

Indian automobile industry has matured in last few years and offers differentiated products for different

segments of the society. It is currently making inroads into the rural middle class market after its

inroads into the urban markets and rural rich. In the recent years Indian automobile sector has

witnessed a slew of investments. India is on every major global automobile player's radar. Indian

automobile industry is also fast becoming an outsourcing hub for automobile companies worldwide, as

indicated by the zooming automobile exports from the country. Today, Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, GM,

Ford and Mitsubishi have set up their manufacturing bases in India. Due to rapid economic growth and

higher disposable income it is believed that the success story of the Indian automobile industry is not

going to end soon..

Rivalry in the Indian Auto sector is intense due to entry of foreign companies. The rivalry is

too high because any new kind of product manufactured by a particular company is being is being

manufactured by competitors also. This is done because technical capabilities of companies under

the technical collaboration with foreign players.

Threat of Substitutes-

The threat of substitutes to the Automobile Sector is fairly low. Many forms of

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 23

Page 24: Summer projct

transportation are available but none offered utility, convenience, independence & value offered by

automobiles. & the cost associated with other modes of transport may be high in terms of personal

time, convenience & utility.

Barriers to entry-

The barriers to enter automobile sector is substantial. For a new company the initial capital

require to establish new manufacturing setup up achieve minimum efficient scale is prohibitive. But

existing companies entered in to market by alliance with domestic partner acquiring stake. However

the domestic company with potentials & expertise has the potential to compete with foreign

players.

AUTOMOTIVE MISSION PLAN5

A mission for development of automobile industry

VISION

“To emerge as the destination of choice in

The world for design and manufacture of

Automobiles and auto components with

Output reaching a level of US$ 145 billion

Accounting for more than 10% of the GDP

And providing additional employment to

25 million people by 2016.”

The necessity of this Mission Plan arises in the background of a newfound strength and

resurgence in the Indian manufacturing sector. For most of the decade of the 1990s, post economic

deregulation in 1991, growth in the Indian economy has been led by growth in the service sector, a

growth that has overshadowed the growth in the manufacturing sector. In the past few years, several

industries in the Indian manufacturing sector have become internationally competitive and have

acquired a new energy to grow. Several industries, including the automotive industry, genuinely

believe that they can become world-beaters.

4.2 In developing a Mission Plan for India’s automotive sector, answer to the following questions

has been sought:

i) Where is automotive sector in India today? What linkages does the automotive sector have with

other facets of the India’s economy?

(ii) What do we want the automotive sector of India to look like in 2016? in other words, what is

the potential of 4th largest position in world to grow along other segments of its value chain. &

what can be the maximum impact on its shareholder.

(iii) How do we attain the vision? What policy interventions will facilitate the attainment of

this potential?

Vision for the Future: The opportunity landscape for the Indian auto industry would

encompass manufacture of vehicles and components for domestic sales, manufacture for exports (both

5 ttp://www.dhi.nic.in/draft_automotive_mission_plan.pdf

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 26

Page 27: Summer projct

vehicles and components), and export of services in areas such as design, engineering, and back office

operations. It is estimated that the total turnover of the automotive industry in India would be in the

order of USD 122-159 billion in 2016 (a substantial increase from the size of USD 34 billion in 2006).

4. It is expected that in real terms, India would continue to enjoy its eminent position of being the

largest tractor and three wheeler manufacturers in the world and the world’s second largest two

wheeler manufacturer By 2016, India would emerge as the world’s seventh largest car producer

(as compared to the In eleventh largest currently) and retain the automotive sector to grow along

manufacturing sector. Further, by 2016 and the automotive sector would double its contribution to

the country’s GDP up to10 % the share of industry in GDP is expected to go up to around 35% from

current level of 24% by 2016.

So this Automotive Mission Plan is already helping Automobile sector & this plan contributes

to the growth of the Automobile Sector. & it will boost this sector in future also.

Current status of Indian Automobile Industry-

The time has gone when people just wanted to have vehicles as a means of transportation but

nowadays they are more aware about the vehicle model, their price and various other features. India

opened its gates for the foreign companies in 1991 various automobiles giants entered our country

seeking it as their target market. We Indians also got a wide variety of cars to choose from. Hyundai

entered in India with a view to capture the small market segment earlier captured mostly by two giant

Indian companies- Tata Motors and Maruti Udyog Limited.

Tata is one of the company in which the Indians trust like anything. It has diversified itself in a

number of sectors gaining the trust and proving its competence in every such field. Tata when come up

with a small car segments it was welcomed by people in the same way as it welcomed all its products.

It has a wide choice of four wheelers to satisfy the varied Indian choices. In the other hand MARUTI

also is said to capture the pulse of Indian middle class by giving them their MARUTI 800.To its wing it

added many other cars to competition to TATA motors.

TATA has Launched TATA NANO the world’s cheapest car. This was the remarkable point in

Indian Automobile history. This car is generally made for middle class people. Tata Nano’s launch

could expand the Indian car market by 65%. TATA has launched world’s cheapest car so now other

players will invent the car like TATA NANO. The customers will have the different options in that price

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 27

Page 28: Summer projct

segment. Middle class people can afford Rs.1 lack car. This leads to increase in the number of car

holders. & this automatically leads to growth of car segment.

Indian Automobile Industry

Largest three wheeler market in the world.

2nd largest two wheeler market in the world.

4th largest passenger vehicle market in Asia.

4th largest tractor market in the world.

5th largest commercial vehicle market in the world.

The industry structure spans all segments and is concentrated in regional clusters

The India automotive sector has a presence across all vehicle segments and key components. In

terms of volume, two wheelers dominate the sector, with nearly 80 per cent share, followed by

passenger vehicles with 13 per cent. The industry had few players and was protected from global

competition till the 1990s. After government lifted licensing in 1993, 17 new ventures have come up.

At present, there are 12 manufacturers of passenger cars, 5 manufacturers of multi utility vehicles

(MUVs), 9 manufacturers of commercial vehicles, 12 of two wheelers and 4 of three wheelers, besides

5 manufacturers of engines. With the arrival of global players, the sector has become highly

competitive.

Concentrated in regional clusters

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 28

Page 29: Summer projct

Automobile manufacturing units are located all over India. These are, however, concentrated in

some pockets such as Chennai and Bangalore in the south, Pune in the west, the National Capital

Region (NCR, which includes New Delhi and its suburban districts) in the north, Jamshedpur and

Kolkata in the east and Pithampur in the central region. Following global trends, the Indian automotive

sector also has most auto

Suppliers located close to the manufacturing locations of OEMs, forming regional automotive clusters.

Broadly, the three main clusters are centered around Chennai, Pune and the NCR.

Auto Components sector is highly fragmented

India is emerging as one of the most attractive automotive markets in the world, and is

poised to become a key sourcing base for auto components.

The Indian automotive component industry is highly fragmented. There-are nearly 6,400 players in the

sector, of which only about 6 per cent are organized and the remaining 94 per cent are small-scale,

unorganized players. In terms of value added, however, the organized players account for nearly 77 per

cent of the output in the sector. The sector manufactures components across all key vehicle systems.

The break-up of the output from the organized sector, in value terms, across key vehicle systems, is

shown in the figure.

Exports of automobiles from India are booming

While the domestic sales of automobiles have been increasing at a significant rate,exports have

taken a quantum leap in recent years. The exports of automobiles from India have been growing at a

CAGR of 39 per cent for the past four years.

Exports growth has been spearheaded by the passenger vehicle segment, which has grown at a

rate of 57.4 per cent. Europe is the biggest importer of cars from the country while predominantly

African nations import buses and trucks.The Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) region

is the prime destination for Indian two wheelers.

Most of the key auto component manufacturers in India are very positive about the outlook for

exports, and expect about 15 per cent of their revenue to come from exports over the next 3-5 years. It

has been estimated that exports of auto components from India could be around US$ 20-25 billion by

2015.

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 29

Page 30: Summer projct

Competitive Advantages

India has several competitive advantages in the automobile sector,which have been analyzed

using the following framework. Availability of skilled manpower with engineering and design

capabilities India has a growing workforce that is English-speaking, highly skilled and trained in

designing and machining skills required by

The automotive and engineering industries. In a combined assessment of manpower availability and

capabilities, India ranks much ahead of other competing economies (see figure).

Figure 5: India competitiveness compared to other industries

Many Indian and global players are leveraging this advantage by increasingly outsourcing activities

like design and R&D to their Indian arms. The Society of Indian Automobile manufacturers(SIAM)

estimates that automotive vehicle manufacturers are

Expected to invest US$ 5.7 billion in the Indian market from 2010 to 2012. Of this, about US$ 2.3

billion will be on research and development and the rest probably on capex.

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 30

Page 31: Summer projct

Table 2: Key players in automobile industry

The Indian automobile industry is highly competitive with a large number of players in each

industry segment. Most of the global majors are present in the passenger vehicle and two wheeler

segments. In the components industry too,global players such as VISTEON, Delphi and Bosch are well

established,competing with domestic players. The presence of global competition has led to an overall

increase in capabilities of the Indian auto sector. Increase in competition has led to a pressure on

margins, and players have become increasingly cost efficient. Quality levels have gone up, and there is

an increasing focus on compliance to TPM, TQM and Six Sigma processes. This has led to an

increased confidence among domestic players, who are now focusing on opportunities abroad. Key

players in the components sector like Bharat Forge and Sundaram Fasteners have become key global

suppliers in their categories.

Expected Growth by 2015-16

Figure 6: potential vehicle sales

After this whole analysis of Automobile Industry we can say that though there are some

backlogs like regional clusters, some threats & weaknesses of Automobile Industry there are more

positive sign than the negative. There is a lot of potential in this industry. This is the industry which

will go day by day. Because the population level of India is increasing. Many of the villages in India is

today car is not meant for need only it becomes a luxury & income level of people is increasing this can b leads to increase in sale of cars.

TATA NANO RS. 1 lack car.

Petrol prices are increasing but it does not affect the sale of car because people gives more important to

need & luxury than the petrol & diesel prices.

Commercial vehicles-

today transportation facilities are developing.

Business is expanding so it leads to requirement of more & more commercial vehicles.

Two Wheeler-

Even lower middle class people can afford two wheelers. Today almost every company provides two

wheeler at a price of RS. 35000 to 40000.

it is cheaper than the other mode of transport & less time consuming.

So we can say that there is so much potential to invest in Automobile sector. in future also this

sector will grow.

Company Analysis-

i have taken two companies from the Automobile Sector-

1- TATA Motors

2- MAHINDRA & MAHINDRA

 TATA MOTORS

   

TATA Motors Limited is India's largest automobile company, with consolidated revenues of RS. 92,519

crores (USD 20 billion) in 2009-10. It is the leader in commercial vehicles in each segment, and among

the top three in passenger vehicles with winning products in the compact, midsize car and utility

vehicle segments. The company is the world's fourth largest truck manufacturer, and the world's second

largest bus manufacturer.

The company's 24,000 employees are guided by the vision to be "best in the manner in which we

operate, best in the products we deliver, and best in our value system and ethics."

Established in 1945, Tata Motors' presence indeed cuts across the length and breadth of India. Over 5.9

million Tata vehicles ply on Indian roads, since the first rolled out in 1954. The company's

manufacturing base in India is spread across Jamshedpur (Jharkhand), Pune (Maharashtra), Lucknow

(Uttar Pradesh), Patagar (Uttarakhand) and Dhār wad (Karnataka). Following a strategic alliance with

Fiat in 2005, it has set up an industrial joint venture with Fiat Group Automobiles at Ranjangaon

(Maharashtra) to produce both Fiat and Tata cars and Fiat powertrains. The company is establishing a

new plant at Sanand (Gujarat). The company's dealership, sales, services and spare parts network

comprises over 3500 touch points; Tata Motors also distributes and markets Fiat branded cars in India.

Tata Motors, the first company from India's engineering sector to be listed in the New York Stock

Exchange (September 2004), has also emerged as an international automobile company. Through

subsidiaries and associate companies, Tata Motors has operations in the UK, South Korea, Thailand

EQUITY RESEARCH ON AUTOMOBILE SECTOR Page 34

Page 35: Summer projct

and Spain. Among them is Jaguar Land Rover, a business comprising the two iconic British brands that

was acquired in 2008. In 2004, it acquired the Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company, South Korea's

second largest truck maker. The rechristened Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company has

launched several new products in the Korean market, while also exporting these products to several

international markets. Today two-thirds of heavy commercial vehicle exports out of South Korea are

from Tata Daewoo. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired a 21% stake in Hispano Carrocera, a reputed

Spanish bus and coach manufacturer, and subsequently the remaining stake in 2009. Hispano's presence

is being expanded in other markets. In 2006, Tata Motors formed a joint venture with the Brazil-based

Marco polo, a global leader in body-building for buses and coaches to manufacture fully-built buses

and coaches for India and select international markets. In 2006, Tata Motors entered into joint venture

with Thornburg Automotive Assembly Plant Company of Thailand to manufacture and market the

company's pickup vehicles in Thailand. The new plant of Tata Motors (Thailand) has begun production

of the Xenon pickup truck, with the Xenon having been launched in Thailand in 2008.

Tata Motors is also expanding its international footprint, established through exports since 1961. The

company's commercial and passenger vehicles are already being marketed in several countries in

Europe, Africa, the Middle East, South East Asia, South Asia and South America. It has franchisee/joint

venture assembly operations in Kenya, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Russia, Senegal and South Africa.

The foundation of the company's growth over the last 50 years is a deep understanding of economic

stimuli and customer needs, and the ability to translate them into customer-desired offerings through

leading edge R&D. With over 3,000 engineers and scientists, the company's Engineering Research

Centre, established in 1966, has enabled pioneering technologies and products. The company today has

R&D centers in Pune, Jamshedpur, Lucknow, Dharwad in India, and in South Korea, Spain, and the

UK. It was Tata Motors, which developed the first indigenously developed Light Commercial Vehicle,

India's first Sports Utility Vehicle and, in 1998, the Tata Indica, India's first fully indigenous passenger

car. Within two years of launch, Tata Indica became India's largest selling car in its segment. In 2005,

Tata Motors created a new segment by launching the Tata Ace, India's first indigenously developed

mini-truck.

In January 2008, Tata Motors unveiled its People's Car, the Tata Nano, which India and the world have

been looking forward to. The Tata Nano has been subsequently launched, as planned, in India in March

2009. A development, which signifies a first for the global automobile industry, the Nano brings the

comfort and safety of a car within the reach of thousands of families. The standard version has been

priced at Rs.100, 000 (excluding VAT and transportation cost).

Designed with a family in mind, it has a roomy passenger compartment with generous leg space and

head room. It can comfortably seat four persons. Its mono-volume design will set a new benchmark

among small cars. Its safety performance exceeds regulatory requirements in India. Its tailpipe

emission performance too exceeds regulatory requirements. In terms of overall pollutants, it has a

lower pollution level than two-wheelers being manufactured in India today. The lean design strategy

has helped minimize weight, which helps maximize performance per unit of energy consumed and

delivers high fuel efficiency. The high fuel efficiency also ensures that the car has low carbon dioxide

emissions, thereby providing the twin benefits of an affordable transportation solution with a low

carbon footprint.

In May 2009, Tata Motors introduced ushered in a new era in the Indian automobile industry, in

keeping with its pioneering tradition, by unveiling its new range of world standard trucks called Prima.

In their power, speed, carrying capacity, operating economy and trims, they will introduce new

benchmarks in India and match the best in the world in performance at a lower life-cycle cost.

Tata Motors is equally focused on environment-friendly technologies in emissions and alternative fuels.

. It has developed electric and hybrid vehicles both for personal and public transportation. It has also

been implementing several environment-friendly technologies in manufacturing processes,

significantly enhancing resource conservation

Through its subsidiaries, the company is engaged in engineering and automotive solutions, construction

equipment manufacturing, automotive vehicle components manufacturing and supply chain activities,

machine tools and factory automation solutions, high-precision tooling and plastic and electronic

components for automotive and computer applications, and automotive retailing and service operations.

Tata Motors is committed to improving the quality of life of communities by working on four thrust

areas – employability, education, health and environment. The activities touch the lives of more than a

million citizens. The company's support on education and employability is focused on youth and

women. They range from schools to technical education institutes to actual facilitation of income

generation. In health, our intervention is in both preventive and curative health care. The goal of

Analysis of Balance Sheet

Share capital of a company is continuously increasing. It means no. of shares also increasing.

Company is trying to raise more & more funds. Current liabilities of the company is more than the

current assets it means company’s liquidity position is so poor. Company is blocking more & more

funds in the form of fixed assets. Investment of the company has increased substantially in the year

2009 which may help the company in long run. But this investment increase the risk of the

company because there is a chances of losses on this investment. & if company earns profit through

this investment it will boost the company in long run.

Dividend per share has decreased by 100 % from the year 2005 to 2009. Net profit margin also

decreased more than 100 %. In the year 2009 the company’s debt is more than its own fund. It is a

negative sign. Because higher the debt higher the risk.Earnings per share in the year 2009-10 were

approx. 39 RS. Doubled than the previous year. This leads to the growth prospects in future. Return

on long term funds are quite better.
