GRUH Finance - mini HDFC

Hi @Rajesh1975 , I am able to understand till the Fair Value part i.e Rs 664 but not able to understand the part “Total Dividend to be received today comes Rs 59” . How to calculate the same ? Can you please help?

As per my calculation it is coming Rs 25.24 after considering Cost of capital 15% for 12 years

Another steady quarter from Gruh. PAT (YoY) grows by 20%.

If you apply the rule of 72, you should double your money in 3 1/2 years in Gruh (assuming PE remains same & they continue to grow at 20% p.a.). On top of that, you get dividends which grow each year.

I feel the growth rate will gradually pick up to above 20% as supply of affordable houses increases and PMAY awareness picks up speed. Nevertheless, even a 20% growth is great with NPA in total control.June 2018.pdf (480.6 KB)

Good results but no management commentary yet on how things on the ground are improving fro affordable homes. There have been good launched in Bangalore around this theme , not sure if this is a national trend. During one of the interviews they had mentioned FY19 is when the supply will come into the market.

Key take away from the above interview:

  1. Continue to focus on 20%+ loan book growth; confident of achieving it

  2. Last year same quarter, disbursement growth was high at 30%+ post demonetization stabilization & pre GST implementation. Thus YoY this year is low due to a higher base.

  3. Credit quality is under control

  4. Housing supply remains a challenge. Hopefully, the supply side should improve in the next few quarters and growth should pick up further

Gruh continues to be amongst my favourite4 which any stock portfolio must have to bring stability and a good nights sleep. The others being:

Page
HDFC Bank
Asian Paints

This year should provide ample entry opportunities into these and it may be a good idea to nibble into these on corrections. In my view, these are multi year hold stocks & holding them will test your patience as during your long holding period, there may be times when your other portfolio of small/mid cap stocks may be jumping up at break neck speed.

Some interesting quotes:

George Soros: "If investing is entertaining, if you’re having fun, you’re probably not making any money. Good investing is boring.

Paul Samuelson: Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas

Gruh Discounted Dividend.xlsx (11.1 KB)

In my opinion you have done some mistake while puting figures at year 1 and 2. Also I have taken into account year 0 as this was already December 17.
How you have discounted, it is not clear as it is not excel sheet. Please check attachment. You can check formula to arrive at conclusion how I discounted it.

Thanks a lot @Rajesh1975 for clearing the doubts. :slightly_smiling_face:
In which type of business we should prefer this valuation Model ? To me where we have long term growth visibility like Hdfc bank, Asian Paints etc. Please correct if I am wrong.
Why we are considering here 10-12 years of time frame not 5-6 years time frame ? Can you please guide about this valuation model bit? It will be really helpful.

Yes you are right about the selection of businesses. Profit growth certainty and longevity of profit growth is always discounted in price. These businesses are never cheap unless facing problems. These should be kept in core portfolio forever unless they lose moat. This is my philosophy.
Why 12 years not 5-6 years
Simple, No body can predict short term. Stock price is too high, If anything happens on GDP growth front in US, worldvide markets will crash. Stocks like Gruh will also come down or will remain here for next 4-5 years, no body knows. People are too bullish for great companies. So discounting 10-12 years give consolation for people who are invested. After all market is the game of probabilities. Discounting for next 12 years for a finance company may backfire heavily if it happens like East Asian crisis, who knows ? I admit that I am subjective here, I dont see much value in next 4-5 years so I discounted for next 12 years.

Motilal Oswal Real Estate arm raises Rs 575 cr for its latest fund. Majority of funds to be used to develop affordable residential real estate.

Waiting for Gruh’s growth to escalate gradually as supply of affordable housing increases…

why would motilal give biz to Gruh finance? developer funding is margin kicker for HFCs and important to grow home loan biz by tapping captive clients.

The real estate fund would provide loans to developers for their affordable housing projects. I have my doubts if Motilal Oswal can force all customers of the developer to take housing loans only from Aspire (MO’s HFC) and not from any other HFC.

Sure, even Aspire won’t take 100% of clients but I have seen SBI HFC financing upto 50% of clients in a mid size project (~400 flats). Basically, HFC biz in big towns/cities is largely a commodity biz and quick turnaround becomes an advantage which Aspire will enjoy due to better access to info.

Yes. Agree. Aspire will have some advantage on this count.

However, my broader point was that supply of affordable housing has been a problem which is slowly getting rectified (MO real estate fund raise is just a small data point in the overall improving environment).

Hopefully, disbursement growth should start improving from present levels (my interest is in Gruh).

I am however very vary of some HFCs growing their book by 40%-50% p.a. and being cheered from the sidelines by their investors. Many will stumble as Aspire has clearly shown that the lending business is not about giving out loans at a fast pace but making sure you collect your EMI’s and on time.

Many HFC’s/banks are forced to grow their asset book at a fast pace to hide their NPA’s (denominator goes up so % NPA’s appear under control).

Guys ,all of us will come to know that why gruh quote at hefty valuation in next coming days . Why Gruh is different from Indiabulls Housing and Dewan Housing? Why we cannot compare any xyz company with with this time tested gem?In bull market we always complained about the gruh’s hefty valuation . Now we will know another part of stock investment , not only making money , all of us need to learn also how to keep the gain with us…the gain which we made last 4 years…No Excel expert can do this justification with any model …

Absolutely no doubt. With the super quality and consistency shown many instuitions are waiting to add Gruh and any corrections in the market will be met with buy. It will correct for sure but not by as much and this is why it will help retain gains made.

Are we immune from… what the report is talking about NBFCs & HFCs

1 Like

While Gruh is not immune to the overall negative sentiment in the NBFC sector and therefore to its valuation, business wise, I feel it will fare much better than other HFC’s. When the dust settles (which hopefully will happen soon), strong players like Gruh (with the backing of a giant group like HDFC) may actually benefit.

As also mentioned by Ajay Piramal in one of his recent interviews, the liquidity stressed HFC’s will slow their lending activity. Also, the practice of snatching of customers of say a Gruh by aggressive HFC lenders by offering a marginal reduction in interest rate will reduce (Gruh may have done the hard work of credit assessment of the customer and the customer is soon snatched away).

As mentioned elsewhere, this period is probably to learn the lessons of investing and rejig your portfolio to high quality companies. Such a period may not last for too long and before you decide to finally buy, the valuations may have already moved up.

I continue to back my favorite4 stocks (Gruh, Page, HDFC Bank and Asian Paints). The assumption is that you are willing to hold for a 5+ year period or better still, forever.
