A personal observation about CLSA’s re rating calls. In past CLSA had said Tata power will go through a poor re rating cycle and that the stock will fall from then CMP of 250-280 Rs band to 180 Rs. I hold a good position in tata power and i didnt sell. Every sign about company was positive and management’s commentary was very promising. I hold on and even added on dips. The stock eventually moved up and today stands beyond 400 Rs.

Since then, i made a mental note. Look at CLSA calls but dont trust them!

Though i am positive about Prestige and I am invested. Here are other broker and fund houses calls that i have collated:

  • Axis Securities. Buy. TP 2195 Rs.

  • Geojit FS. Accumulate. TP 1822 Rs.

  • Yes Securities. Buy. TP 3021 Rs. {60%+ upside}

Rating calls have no accountability. It’s best to look at who the individual analyst is and how their thesis and the price has fared, if there is a correlation.

Most analysts have to follow multiple sectors and jave a target set of reports right after a quarter or earnings call. It’s done like a factory. A lot of them are kids (2-5 years of work experience), you can check profiles on LinkedIn.

Find a good analyst and follow them. Best is find someone in your circle who works in the industry, they can explain how things work and you’ll get an insiders view also.

The best way to analysis is just get through last Investor Presentation , couple of concalls and last 6 month management interview (Mr.Irfan Razak & teams) you will easily understand the sector and Prestige estate future prospect, Real estate cycle in midway it will easily last another couple of year say 3-4 year , just compare the presales date and future launches ,existing land bank etc. Do your own analysis before investing.
