Motilal Olswal's research on IndusInd bank

The IIB has been able to show results through its consistent efforts to strengthen its liability franchise. Management has increased their focus on securing Retail deposits after witnessing a dramatic drop in deposits since Mar'20. In Sep'21, the same has increased by 59% YoY while the mix according to LCR disclosures rose 980bp to 41%. Due to the challenging business environment and low demand, loan growth has been slow over the last few quarters. The Corporate book saw a decrease over FY21. The bank reports a healthy recovery with a QoQ increase of 5% over 2QFY22. A positive outlook on demand and a better CV cycle would help to maintain the momentum. Over FY21-24E, we expect 17% loan CAGR. Overall, the risks to asset quality are increasing. Provisioning will continue as IIB would provide MFI/restructuring, and is looking for contingency to its IDEA exposure. We expect credit cost to decrease gradually to 1.8% in FY24E, and GNPA/NNPA levels to decline to 1.8%/0.5% in FY24E.

Outlook

The IIB stock has experienced a healthy (24%) return in the last two months due to abating concerns about asset quality and improving demand/business outlook. In the short term, asset quality pressure will likely remain. Comfort comes from a healthy PCR of 72% and a provision buffer of 1.4% on loans. In FY24E, we expect a RoA/RoE ratio of 2.0%/16.7%. Our Buy rating is maintained with an INR1,400/share TP (1.9x 1HFY24E BV).
