Investment Rationale

Robust Growth in Credit Rating Business:

CRISIL currently has 60% market share of the credit ratings business and 51% market share in bank loan ratings (BLR). Nearly 20,000 of the 35,000 clients under the category of clients who have taken loan of less than Rs 10 crore are yet to be rated. The growth will come from newer clients, enhancements of the limits of the existing clients and annual surveillance fees.

More growth is expected from this segment. Basel II norms specify mandatory credit ratings for bank loans above Rs. 5 crore. The recent incidence of scams is also prompting more small and medium companies to get the respectability of an independent credit rating when raising funds. Apart from that, new products like Education ratings will continue to add to growth.

Research Business Revenue:

During Dec'10, the company acquired Pipal Research Company which has turnover of about US$ 8 Million. Pipal research is of the same size as what was Irevna in 2005, when CRISIL acquired it. Pipal has 30 Fortune 500 clients. The entire integration process is over and CRISIL is bullish both on Irevna and Pipal for CY'11. Infact, there is a significant increase in staff cost during Q1 CY'11 as the headcount of Pipal has increased by more than 1/3rd during the quarter.

In Research business, the margins for CY'10 stood at about 32% as against 36% Y-o-Y largely due to forex losses. When CRISIL acquired Irevna in 2009, CRISIL’s turnover stood at Rs. 537 crores. Irevna acquired 23 new clients and its total number of clients stood at 63. This business derives its synergies from its tie ups with banks and as a provider of research for its treasury products.

Acquisition of Pipal:

CRISIL recently acquired Chicago-based Pipal Research Corp., one of the leading players in the knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) industry, from First Source Solution for US $13 mn (around Rs.58cr). Pipal has a strong presence in the corporate sector mainly in North America and Europe and reported revenue of US $8 mn (around Rs.37cr) in FY2010. Pipal’s client base includes leading telecommunications, technology, consumer packaged goods and industrial companies.

Consistent Market share:

During CY'10, the company rated 2,434 new clients (2,268 new clients for CY'09) in Bank loan rating category and rated about 7,800 new SME's (5,758 new SME's for CY'09). The company continues to maintain its market share of about 51% in ratings. In SME, CRISIL would complete about 20,000 client's ratings within few months. The margins are maintained despite lower ticket size and tough competition as company works on a model which covers its costs and protects its bottom line income and thereby maintains its delta.

Bond Market to witness growth in 2011:

The government and the regulators are currently focusing to increase access of the infrastructure sector to the bond market. For this they have increased the FII limit in corporate bond to USD 40 bn from USD 20 bn, credit enhancement schemes for infrastructure entities and new CDS draft guidelines issued by RBI. Forex Gain:

There was a forex gain of Rs 1.54 crore for Q1 CY'11 as against loss of Rs 3.78 crore in the corresponding previous quarter. Forex would continue to play a big role in margins as nearly 52% of its forex revenues come in $ currency and the about 36% of its forex revenues in Pounds. Management now has adopted a simple hedge policy and so far has hedged its position to the tune of 40% i.e. 138 crore of its CY'11 forex revenues. CREST:

CRISIL – Real Estate Star (CREST) rating is a first-of-its kind service for retail investors in real estate sector. It provides a city specific all round assessment of real estate projects, and helps buyers benchmark and identify quality project within a city. The product has received an encouraging response from all stake holders- developers, buyers, investors and bankers. CRISIL has already evaluated 29 projects across 10 cities.

Strengths:

� Over 5500 bank loan ratings (BLR) outstanding, the largest number of BLR in India; 2434 new ratings assigned during the year. The company has crossed milestone of 17,500 small and medium enterprises (SME) ratings; 7800 new SME ratings assigned in 2010.

� During the year, CRISIL launched CRISIL Real Estate Star (CREST) Rating, a first-of-its-kind service for retail investors in the real estate sector. The company has also expanded operations at Global Analytical Centre (GAC) to support Standard & Poor’s (S&P). It expanded geographic presence with sales office in Sydney and research centre in China.

� CRISIL has been Ranked # 1 firm in the world in financial services research, risk management and actuarial services, corporate finance support and financial services analytics by the Black Book of Outsourcing – a Data monitor company.

� Assisted the Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India (GoI), in a unique and innovative public-private-partnership project to provide urban services in rural areas (PURA); the pilot project promises to be the first of many such endeavors. Helped the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy, GoI, design the framework for exchange of renewable energy purchase obligations, and a platform for trading in renewable energy certificates.

� Received a renewed mandate from the World Bank to conduct training program in enhancing the regulatory reform capabilities of member regulators of the East Asia Pacific Infrastructure regulators forum (EAPIRF).

� CRISIL has won key accounts in the public and private banking sector – portfolio of customers now includes 9 of India’s top 10 banks. Entered the global arena, winning two prestigious mandates including a reputed multilateral development institution in South East Asia. Developed a loan origination system to enable automation of a bank’s credit appraisal process as an important module in its internal rating platform.

Risk & Concerns:

� Slowdown and fears of recession:

If the economic crisis deepens further in future, the credit rating demand would be affected. Most of the revenue is generated from outsourcing of research services to foreign clients and corporations. The current scenario of high interest rates resulting in liquidity constraints in the market could impact the top line due to lower fresh debt issuances by the Corporates and institutions as CRISIL’S rating business is dependent on credit demand.

� Growing Competition from other players:

CRISIL currently has the highest market share of 51%. However, growing competition from players such as ICRA, CARE, Fitch Ratings and Brickwork has seen erosion in the market share. In the case of BLR (Bank Loan Rating), CRISIL’S market share has dipped to 50% in 2010 from 55% in 2009.This can affect its future growth rate. Competition will continue to increase; in fact just last month, a 6th new rating agency received the license for ratings.

Maximus Securities Research

Company’s Future Outlook:

The Company has a downside risk with respect to the slowing down of our economy. However this may get offset by the low value 20,000 odd SME’s accounts it expects to be added in Q3 of CY11.

The company stock is trading currently near its 52 week high, in spite of the fact that most other stocks are trading at a huge discount of their inherent strength of the fundamentals of the company.

Currently trading at 29xCY10 earning, the stock is not exactly cheap, but it commands a higher PE because of its robust financial numbers that show immunity to current economic downturn.
