Company Brief Atul Auto Ltd. is one of the youngest players in the 3 wheelers business with
humble beginning in 1992 that started with manufacturing of Chhakaras
(Rural Transportation Vehicle- RTV). It produces auto rickshaw under various
product names- Atul Shakti, Atul Smart, Atul Gem and Atul Gemini-DZ.
Quarterly Highlights
• AAL’s total volumes in 9MFY16 grew by 6% overall whereas its exports
rose at 21% y-o-y. As a result of modest increase in sales volumes revenues
grew by just 8.4% y-o-y. The net profit has seen a growth of 21.5% (y-o-y)
to Rs 36.55 crs compared to Rs 30.07 crs in the same period a year ago.
• AAL’s cargo segment market share has gone up to 20% in 9MFY16 FY16 as
compared to 18% in the same period last year. The company has achieved
200 primary dealerships in 9MFY16 as compared to 180 in FY15. Its
international presence is also on an increase with a total number of 8
distributors for exports.
• Demand sentiment was bad which had affected trade receivables in
Q2FY15. Working capital has worsened a little more in Q3FY16 but is
expected to return to normal in a few quarters. Although the demand for
diesel vehicles is very strong in rural and semi-urban areas, it suffered in
the last quarter due to the bad monsoons.
• The ability to maintain positive growth even in dampening market
conditions clouded with negative sentiments portrays AAL’s ability to
sustain the same in the future. Positive growth in EPS and revenues
together with its plans to maintain the debt free status works in its favor.
• The stock trades at a currently trades at 21.9x FY16e EPS of Rs 23.18 and
20.0 x FY17e EPS of Rs 25.42. Aided by higher operating margins (14.7% vs
11.6%), earnings advanced by a spectacular 21.6% in the first three
quarters of current fiscal. AAL’s three wheeler volumes in FY16 have
grown at the lowest rate (5.5%) in last four years, goading us to cut next
year EPS estimate by 8.9%. Yet there exists high chance of revival in the
Indian automobile sector in the near term. We, therefore, assign
‘accumulate’ rating on the stock with revised target of Rs 561 (previous
target: Rs 586) based on 22x FY17e earnings (peg ratio:1; on FY15-FY17
earnings growth), over a period of 6-9 months; forward P/E justified not
least due to high probability of dramatic improvement in volumes.

Outlook & Recommendation
Outlook of Three Wheeler Industry
Exports of cars, utility vehicles, commercial vehicles and two-wheelers have grown every year since 2000. In 2014-15, Indian
factories exported a record 3.5 million vehicles which, according to industry statistics, was 15% more than what they
managed a year back (refer chart below). This compares with domestic sales of just above 19.7 million units during the same
period, up 7.2% from the previous year.
The market for three wheelers in India witnessed a quick increase during early 1950s. Three wheelers are an essential
ingredient of the country's automobile sector as they are one of the most favored means of transport in rural as well as
urban India. The industry witnessed a minor decline in 2011 which can be accredited to government policies such as cap on
permits and elevated interest rates. However, the market has been performing quite well thereafter as a result of rising
population and growing commercialization which are all contributing to unprecedented use of three wheelers for intra city
transportation.

India’s three wheeler market is categorized into passenger carrier and goods carrier three wheelers. Passenger carrier three
wheelers are used for public transportation, while goods carrier three wheelers are used for carrying goods and materials
over short and intermediate distances. Increasing demand for cheap and suitable public conveyance in rural and semi
urban areas and increasing number of permits being issued by state governments across the country are also playing a
greater role in driving the demand for three wheeler markets in India. The demand for passenger carrier three wheelers
exceeds that of goods carrier three wheelers in domestic as well as export markets including South Asia, Africa and Latin
America.

Roadmap for AAL
Despite the slowdown in three wheeler sector in some parts of the country and stiff competition from other players, the business
performance of AAL continues to be robust during the 9mFY16. AAL continues to have a strong marketing and distribution
network with a pan-India presence with the exception of 2 major states- West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. It is present in the rural
and semi-urban segment in and now plans to focus on penetrating the urban markets.
It has 200 primary dealers and 120 secondary dealerships in totality. It plans to enter into all the geographies with three wheeler
potential in the next 3-5 years across India. Its long term plan includes increasing market share because better penetration
opportunities exist. The focus will now be more on tier II cities and urban sector. There were around 180 dealers in FY15 which
increased to 200 in FY16. This was a lower addition in absolute terms than expected. However it plans to add 25-40 dealers
domestically in the next fiscal year.
PRESENCE IN INDIA
Source: AAL Source: AAL
Overseas presence includes presence in countries like Bangladesh, Tanzania, Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria and Jamaica. Beyond
Africa, AAL plans to venture into countries like Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Bangladesh. There is also sound potential in Latin
American countries. There are a total of 8 distributors in the export segment and AAL plans to add 10-15 more in the next
couple of years. AAL plans to increase its share of exports to 17%-25% of its total sales in the next 3-5 years compared to the 4%
for FY15.
There is very little scope for technological advancement as far as three wheelers are concerned. AAL is focusing more on
offering better features, low maintenance or no maintenance vehicles to the customers and better after sale service. AAL does
not believe in pricing its product below that of its competitors. It will maintain its price at par with competition in export
segment. Instead it will focus more on providing better features to end customers. Typical end users include large corporate in
FMCG, pharmaceuticals and construction, mid-size companies for captive use and business proposition and individuals who
use it as a means of self employment. Growth in the consumer driven industries has been driving growth in the past.
Financials and Valuations
India is one of the largest manufacturers of three-wheelers producing a volume of ~9.4 lakh units p.a. and growing at 6-8% p.a.,
having a domestic demand of ~5.5 lakh units p.a. Government focus on development of rural road infrastructure coupled
with the ease of availability for permits for fuels like CNG/LPG driven vehicles is assisting in the passenger application in the
rural and semi-urban areas. The overall auto industry registered a marginal growth of 1.67% in Apr-Feb 16 period. Three
wheelers sales declined by -0.5% in April-February 2016 over the same period last year - passenger carrier sales increased by
0.24%, while the goods carrier sales declined by 3.75%.

AAL has marginally increased its market share to 8.07 % in 9mFY16. The new gasoline vehicle which was launched this year
has garnered excellent response and AAL expects the good response to continue in the future as well. AAL’s revenues are
projected to rise by 10.4% in the current fiscal. However operating margins are expected hover at 15%. It is going to set up a
new plant for 60000 vehicles in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, involving a capex of approximately Rs 150 cr, which will be funded
through internal accruals.

Risks and Concerns
Easing growth
The last few years have been particularly challenging for the Indian economy. Subdued GDP growth, sustained high inflation
and plummeting currency may pose significant threat to company's growth going ahead. The economic environment, pricing
pressure could negatively affect AAL's operating results.
Margin pressure
AAL may face difficulties in procuring raw material at competitive prices because of its relatively small size of operations
compared to its competitors and therefore may have adversely impact margins.
Weak monsoons
Poor monsoons could impact demand for three wheelers not only in rural areas but also in tier II and III cities.
