Despite over a 100% rise in property stocks this quarter, we remain
positive on the sector, with 20%+ potential upside in our top picks DLF,
Unitech and IBREL.
■ Volatility in property stocks will remain a lasting feature as NAVs are
linked to asset prices. Just as there were real reasons for the 60-70%
NAV declines in 2008, a liquidity improvement and demand revival
could cause NAVs to rise by another 30-120% over the next 12 months.
■ We calculate that average gearing in our coverage could decline from
0.7x to 0.2x, given developers’ fund-raising plans. This would have a
beneficial impact on developers’ new launches and business plans.
■ The outlook has turned positive, with increased investor demand, a
gradual revival of end-user demand and possibly wider participation
through the REITs/REMFs. Demand could pick up faster than expected
and the possibility of a property price increase cannot be ruled out,
although this is not in our estimates currently.
■ All said, substantial risks remain and valuations are no longer as
compelling. Equity issuances are only plans and a demand revival
needs wider participation from end users. Investors are better advised
to focus on secular themes that are expected to do well, such as
(1) affordable housing and city-centric residential; (2) projects in tier I/II
cities; and (3) developers that will be able to aggressively de-leverage.
■ We like DLF for the quality of its land bank and the efforts it is making
to improve its liquidity situation. We like Unitech for its thrust in
affordable housing and IBREL for the net cash on its balance sheet
after its recent QIP issuance.
