Stock call: Buy Larsen & Toubro Infotech with target price of Rs 1,905
Posted on 15th March 2019 |
.jpg) |
We had downgraded L&T Infotech (LTI) post Q3FY19 results (Limited catalysts for re-rating) given client-specific issues, peak margins and near full valuation. Stock is since down ~9%, which appropriately captures our concerns. NIFTY IT index is up 4% in comparison. We also see it less likely for any stake acquisition in Mindtree, if at all, to happen from LTI’s balance sheet. As a result, we upgrade the stock to ‘Buy’, with a revised target price of rS 1,905 based on 18x FY21E EPS. |
