Analyst Recommendations

The Hyundai Motor India IPO is a landmark event for the Indian auto industry, being the first automaker’s IPO in over two decades, following Maruti Suzuki’s listing in 2003. Most brokerages have recommended a ‘buy,’ reflecting optimism around this offering.

Hyundai Motor India IPO recommendations from various brokerages.

Giving a ‘Buy’ recommendation, Bajaj Broking in its IPO note said, “For the last three fiscals, the company has reported an average EPS (earning per share) of Rs 62.56, and an average RoNW (return on net worth) of 39.11 per cent. The issue is priced at a P/BV (price-to-book value) of 13.11 based on its NAV (net asset value) of Rs 149.52 as of June 30, 2024, as well as post-IPO equity capital since this is a secondary issue.”

Another brokerage Master Capital Services in its IPO note said, “Hyundai’s IPO offers potential value growth by expanding investment prospects in the underdeveloped Indian auto market.”

Another brokerage LKP Securities also recommended a ‘subscribe for long term’.

However, since the PV industry is slightly in a slow lane currently, this may augur well for the company, as HMI is expanding its capacity by 30 per cent in the next 2 to 3 years. With new model launches (4 in mid-term, including the new Creta EV), HMI should give a strong fight to its rivals. At the upper end of the price band, on FY 24 earnings, the stock should trade at 26x times which is a fair value as compared to its closest peer Maruti Suzuki (29x FY 24 earnings).

“Therefore, on all favourable parameters, we assign a SUBSCRIBE rating on the stock. We recommend investing in this stock over the long term for higher returns,” LKP said.
