SENSEX - The Thermometer of Indian Capital Markets

SENSEX, first compiled in 1986, was calculated on a "Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology of 30 component stocks on behalf of large, well-established and money-wise sound companies across key sectors. The base year of SENSEX was taken as 1978-1979. SENSEX today is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print as well as electronic media. It is scientifically designed and is based on internationally accepted construction and evaluation methodology. Since September 1, 2003, SENSEX is being calculated on a free-float market capitalization methodology. The "free-float market capitalization-weighted" methodology is a widely followed index assembly methodology on which greater part of global equity indices are based; all major index providers like MSCI, FTSE, STOXX, S&P and Dow Jones use the free-float methodology.The expansion of the equity market in India has been extraordinary in the present decade. Right from early 90s, the stock market witnessed heightened activity in terms of various bull and bear runs. In the late 90s, the Indian market witnessed a enormous fury in the 'TMT' sectors. More recently, real estate fixed the fancy of the investors. SENSEX has captured all these happenings in the most judicious manner. One can recognize the booms and busts of the Indian equity market through SENSEX. As the oldest index in the country, it provides the time series data over a fairly long period of time (from 1979 onwards). now, the SENSEX has become one of the most prominent brands in the country.

sensex last week and next week

The short-term tendency is down since the recent peak of 15,940. The downward setback from 15,545 last week reinforces the negative short-term view as does the 10-day ROC’s decline in to the negative zone. We maintain a neutral medium-term view with the possibility of a move between 13,000 and 16,000 for a few more weeks.

Decline below 14,244 will make the Sensex head towards the medium-term support zone between 13,000 and 13,200. Long-term investors however need not worry unless there is a weekly close below 13,000.

The week ahead promises to be uneven. The Sensex can decline to 14,741 or 14,244 in the near-term. Short-term investors can hold their long positions as long the index holds above the second support. The short-term trend will turn positive if there is a close above 15,600 in the early part of the week. Upward target would be 16,002, 16,179 and 16,421

Sun pharma got US FDA Approval

Sun Pharma ltd has announced that US FDA has granted approvals for two ANDAs, generic version of Eloxatin, oxaliplatin for injection and generic version of Imitrex, sumatriptan succinate tablets.this is really the great milsstone for sun pharma and they have achieved it.From this approval they will be able to make good results in the coming quarters. Also announced that it will share 180days exclusivity for generic version of Eloxatin. Oxaliplatin injections have annual sales of approximately $2.3 billion in the US.
Oxaliplatin is an anticancer used in the treatment of colon and rectal cancer. Patent on the Eloxatin is set to expire in 2013.
We believe the news of 180 share exclusivity on Eloxatin is a positive surprise and could lead to 3-4% upside to our Target Price. However, at Rs1,206 the stock is trading at 19.4x FY2010E and 16.3x FY2011E earnings.
We recommend a NEUTRAL on the stock as we believe the US FDA issue is unlikely to get resolved soon and will impact the company’s US business (lower sales of distributed products and further inventory write downs) and would continue to be an overhang on the stock.

• We maintain our Buy recommendation on the stock with revised price Target of Rs450.see the highlights of the quarter results of corporation bank
  
• Corporation Bank has reported a healthy set of numbers for Q1FY2010, well ahead of our estimates (both at top line and bottom line fronts), led by robust treasury gains, stable margins and healthy business growth during the quarter. The bank reported a net profit Rs261.3 cr, up by 41.8% year on year (yoy), which is well ahead of our expectations.

• The net interest income came in at Rs467.5 cr, up by 23.7% yoy and 9.2% quarter on quarter (qoq) on account of healthy 21.6% year-on-year (y-o-y) advances growth coupled with stable net interest margin at 2.26% (reported), up marginally by 7 basis points qoq.
• The non-interest income increased by staggering 128% yoy to Rs359.3 cr mainly driven by strong treasury gains during the quarter. The bank recorded treasury gains of Rs185.4 cr in the quarter, a stupendous 46 times higher than that of Rs4.5 cr in Q1FY2009. Furthermore, leveraging of strong technology platform and better pricing of banking services resulted in a robust 38.3% y-o-y growth in core fee income.
• The operating expenses grew by 19.1% yoy and 3.6% qoq to Rs255.6 cr led by 23.4% yoy and 11.6% sequential increase in staff expenses. Meanwhile the other operating expenses grew by 15.8% yoy.
• The provision expenses grew sharply by 53.7% yoy to Rs155 cr as the bank utilized high treasury gains to shore up its loan loss coverage. The non-performing asset (NPA) provisions increased sharply by 71.4% yoy to Rs60 cr during the quarter. Meanwhile the other provisions spiked up to Rs66 cr from Rs5 cr in Q1FY2009, as the bank made provisions worth Rs53 cr towards wage revision and Rs13.5 cr towards sacrifice in restructured accounts.
• The asset quality deteriorated during the quarter, as the gross non-performing assets (GNPA) increased by 6.3% yoy and 9.4% qoq to Rs611.6 cr. In tandem the GNPA in percentage terms (% GNPA) inched up to 1.29% in the quarter versus 1.14% in Q4FY2009, while the percentage of net non-performing assets (% NNPA) stood at 0.32% in the quarter under review vis-à-vis 0.29% in the previous quarter. Driven by higher loan loss provisions made during the quarter, the provision coverage ratio improved to 78.6% from 75.8% in the previous quarter.
• During the quarter, the bank restructured loans worth Rs1,362.6 cr, slightly higher compared with Rs1,280.3 cr worth pending applications for restructuring as on March 31, 2009. The total restructured assets now stand at 5.1% of the total outstanding loans, which is largely in line with the quantum of restructuring done by its peers.
• The business growth during the quarter was healthy and well ahead of the industry growth. The advances grew by 21.6% yoy to Rs47,378 cr, while the deposits grew much faster at 31.8% yoy to Rs72,127 cr. However, the current account and saving account (CASA) deposits fell sharply by 27.6% sequentially, thereby leading to an over 800 basis point sequential and 400-basis-point y-o-y contraction in the CASA ratio to 23.3%.

Corporation Bank by far has the best capital adequacy among its peers and a strong tier-I ratio leaves the bank with ample headroom to raise tier-II capital.

We have revised our earnings estimates upwards for FY2010 and FY2011 by 8.4% and 4.9% respectively to factor in robust treasury gains, strong core fee income growth and higher-than-expected business growth. At the current market price of Rs368, the stock trades at 5.2x FY2011E earnings per share (EPS), 2.5x FY2011E pre-provisioning profit (PPP) per share and 0.9x FY2011E adjusted book value (ABV) per share.
