Industry
ATM Deployment Data by the company DRHP
Approximately 110,000 new ATMs will be cumulatively added, with an additional 198,000
replacement demand; more than half of these will be deployed under the BLA model. 365,000 ATMs are likely
to be installed, driven by pent-up demand and the need to address under-penetration in the SURU regions, as well
as a shift from CAPEX to OPEX-based deals for banks (e.g. BLAs), and with additional upside expected given
the increase in interchange fees. The total ATMs (incremental requirement) is expected to increase from 43,000
in Fiscal Year 2022 to 61,000 in Fiscal Year 2027, predominantly driven by the replacement of ATMs. In order
to address this demand for new and replacement ATMs, banks are likely to prefer a BLA operational model – one
that can reduce CAPEX costs as well as ensure that the demand for the market is met. This is one of the key
drivers for the BLA market which is expected to grow from 86,000 ATMs in Fiscal Year 2021 to 180,000 ATMs
by Fiscal Year 2027.
Benefits The company that can derive from this Managed Services business Which Provides BLA Services( When banks out Source the ATM deployment via BLA model) they managed service segment will benefit out by installing and maintaining these ATM’s if they win the contracts and tech solutions segment will benefit by AI remote monitoring revenue
And cash management will benefit by ATM replenishment service.
Risk: Though the CIS has increased from 16L Crores to 31L crores over 7 years but the ATM value of transactions has been stagnant for the past 7 years i.e. monthly value of transactions has been at 2.5L to 2.75L for the past 7 years.
However the online transactions/POS has increased from 20K Crores per month in 2016 to around 60K Crores per month in 2022.
And from 2011 to 2016 Number of ATM’s in India Has increased from around 85K to 2L+ how ever from 2016 to 2022 the number of ATM’s has been the same of around 2L-2.5L, as per DRHP of the company banks will add 1L more ATM’s in coming 4-5 Years and Banks will replace around 1.8L ATM’s.
Over the last 7 years the number of ATM’S has hardly increased and now its hard to believe that 1L new ATM’s will be added over the next 4-5Years.
And one more thing is Baring Acquired CMS on 2015 a year before demonetization, rest is known to all. Baring acquired CMS for 2000cr they have made 1000 Cr via IPO OFS and the value of their current stake is around 2800cr they made around 1800cr profit over 7 years which is close to 10% CAGR.
