Performance in Q1FY17 fares largely well!


For Q1FY17, overall volumes for the auto sector grew 9.8% YoY; with 2W, CV & PV registering growth of 11%, 12% & 7.6% YoY, respectively.
Overall revenue & PAT of I-direct auto universe [ex-Tata Motors (TML) &
Balkrishna Industries (BIL), which are yet to publish results] grew 9.8%
YoY & 17.3% YoY, respectively. The impact of a reversal in input prices (as
anticipated) impacted operating margins (down ~24bps YoY) but higher
other income supported profitability. Our OEM universe (ex-TML) reported
revenue & PAT growth of 10.7% YoY (volume driven) & 18.9% YoY,
respectively, while the ancillary universe (ex-BIL) reported revenue & PAT
growth of 8.2% YoY & 13.3% YoY, respectively.

Industry growth = Launches + good sentiment + Pay Commission + GST

The overall auto industry reported strong volumes for July 2016, up 8.9%
YoY largely driven by improved rural sentiments. For July 2016, volume
for the 2-W space witnessed strong growth of 9.2% YoY, largely driven by
scooter volumes (up 15.2% YoY). The top two players HMCL & HMSI
posted healthy volume growth of 9.1% & 16.5% YoY, respectively, driving
overall 2-W growth. Passenger vehicle (PV) volumes grew 13.9% YoY,
driven by UV volumes, up 47.5% YoY. For MSIL, market leader in the PV
space, volumes came in strong at 12.7% YoY. High base & lower fleet
activity during monsoons resulted in marginal growth of 2.1% YoY for CV.
The M&HCV segment volumes witnessed a decline (4.6% YoY) for July
2016, after growing continually over the past two years YoY. The 3-W
segment continued to face headwinds in the export market, resulting in
overall volumes declining 8.9% YoY in July 2016. On the back of good
monsoons, domestic tractor volumes grew 8% YoY for July 2016. We
believe the overall auto sector will remain in a sweet spot, as multiple
factors viz. normal monsoons in 2016, the governments focus on vehicle
scrappage policy, implementation of Seventh Pay Commission and GST
will spur automotive demand over the next two years.

With expectations of an improvement in demand sentiments, we expect


the overall industry to grow 7-9% YoY in FY17E. We believe the PV space
will grow 8-10% YoY. Despite slower volume growth during April-July
2016, we expect M&HCV volumes to pick up (expect ~15% YoY growth
for FY17E) while LCV will continue with its recovery. The 2-W segment is
likely to grow 7-9% YoY, mainly led by growth in the scooter segment.
Tractor industry volumes are expected to grow ~15% in FY17E, assuming
good monsoons and a gradual recovery due to a low base. On a longer
term basis, we remain positive on the growth prospects of the industry
with a rise in incomes augmenting auto penetration levels in the country
coupled with lower interest rate. We believe the auto industry will witness
a demand recovery mainly on the back of new launches and refreshes
across segments. The sector is expected to see the positive impact of the
Pay Commission that will incrementally boost PV volumes by ~16% in the
next two years. We further believe the sector will also be a key beneficiary
of implementation of Goods & Service Tax (GST), going forward.
For July 2016, the BSE Auto Index was up 8.3% outperforming the
benchmark index which was up 4.9%. Among our I-direct auto coverage,
we remain bullish on frontline OEM stocks like Eicher Motors, Tata Motors
and M&M. However, with the favourable impact of operating leverage due
to increased demand, the earnings growth trajectory for ancillary stocks is
likely to remain on the uptrend.

Two wheeler & tractor do well; weaker exports impacts three wheeler
For July 2016, 2-W volumes registered strong growth of 9.2% YoY
primarily supported by good monsoons in 2016. In terms of category wise
growth, the scooter segment continued to outpace motorcycle growth, up
15.2% YoY to 528,372 units. Major players in the scooter space (viz. HMSI
& HMCL) posted good growth of 20.4% YoY & 37.9% YoY, respectively,
for July 2016. Overall motorcycle volumes grew 5.4% YoY after volumes
of market leader HMCL grew 5.5% YoY to 456,987 units. The moped
segment (driven by TVS Motors) reported strong growth of 26.1% YoY to
76,947 units.
The 3-W volumes declined 8.9% YoY to 76,012 units, as domestic growth
of 2.1% YoY to 46,098 units was offset by volume de-growth of 21.9%YoY
to 29,914 units. The 3-W export market continues to remain challenging
for players.
Tractor industry domestic volumes grew 8.3% in July 2016, on the back of
good monsoons and a gradual recovery in tractor demand.

Hero MotoCorps volumes grew 9.1% YoY at 532,113 units. Good


monsoon driven rural sentiments will drive HMCL volumes; as
~50% of HMCL volume is rural centric in nature

The motorcycle segment grew 5.5% YoY to 4.6 lakh units. HMCLs
scooter volume was up 37.9% YoY to 75,126 units mainly due to
the new Duet, which clocked volumes of 24,521 units. Volumes of
Maestro grew 24.2% YoY to 34,027 units but the same was partly
offset by a decline in volumes of Pleasure (down 38.8% YoY to
16,578 units)

Export volumes declined 48.6% YoY to 11,554 units, largely due to


a decline in exports of Pleasure (from 9,346 units to 840 units). The
management continues to focus on exports market. It is likely to
expand its global footprint by entering ~50 markets with the target
sales of 12 million units (~10% of total volume) by FY20E

Bajaj Auto (BAAUTO)

Bajaj Autos (BAL) 2-W volumes grew 1.1% YoY, as growth of


21.3% YoY in domestic volumes was largely offset by 19.9% YoY
de-growth in export. BAL has seen a gradual improvement in
motorcycle market share up from 16.5% in March 2015 to 18.8%
in June 2016. Volumes of Platina were up 45.9% YoY to 40,233
units. The newly launched Avenger & V 15 boosted its volumes,
which were at 24,156 units & 22,846 units, respectively

Its 3-W volumes declined 7.3% YoY, after growth of 8.4% YoY in
domestic volumes was offset by de-growth of 20.5% YoY in
export volumes. The management expects export volumes to
recover in H2FY17 thereby driving its overall volumes

The management is planning to launch Pulsar 400 (in the sport


segment in Q2FY17,) another model from V-platform and a new
model in the entry segment in Q3FY17, which will drive its
volumes. The company is already growing at double digit growth
and expects strong growth in H2FY17

driven by volumes of Apache up 43.4% YoY to 37,197 units. Also,
volumes of Victor GLX at 12,992 units supplemented growth.
However, the same was partly offset by volumes of Star City &
Phoenix, down 21.9% YoY & 84.2% YoY, respectively. Scooter
segment volume surprisingly declined 2.3% YoY to 68,033 units,
as growth of Jupiter & Wego up 6.3% YoY & 2.3% YoY,

Honda Motorcycles & Scooters India (HMSI)


HMSI: Motorcycles & scooter sales volumes

For July 2016, HMSI reported healthy volumes growth of 16.5%


YoY to 453,844 units. This was mainly led by strong growth in the
scooter segment up 15.2% YoY to 309,170 units further expanding
its overall 2-W domestic market share by 144 bps YoY to 27.7%

Domestic motorcycle volumes declined 0.8% YoY. This was after


volumes of Livo (up 217.9% YoY) at 21,318 units & new CB Hornet
160R at 2660 units were offset by a decline in volumes of CB Shine
down 10.7% YoY. Domestic scooter volume grew 15.2% YoY, led
by 13.5% YoY & 41.9% YoY growth in Activa & Dio, respectively,
but partially offset by decline in volume of Aviator, down 16.3%
YoY. Its newly launched NAVI clocked volumes of 11,644 units

Export volumes grew 33.3% YoY to 24,333 units, primarily led by


growth in the scooter segment. With HMSIs focus more on
domestic markets, the export segment remains a small part of the
companys volume pie contributing 5.4% of total volumes

M&Ms overall automotive volumes were up 13.9% YoY to 39,458


units. Its core UV segment (including exports) grew 20.9% YoY
supported by its new launches (TUV300 & KUV100) but the same
was below industry UV volumes up 47.5% YoY

The newly launched TUV3OO & KUV1OO clocked volumes of


2,199 units and 3,382 units, respectively. However, the same was
offset by decline in volumes of its legacy models like Bolero &
XUV5OO. New launches and facelifts continue to hold the key for
M&M in the extremely competitive space

M&Ms tractor volumes grew 13.5% YoY to 17,553 units, mainly


on account of the low base & good monsoon. Domestic tractor
volumes were up 15.3% YoY to 16,452 units while export volumes
declined 7.2% YoY to 1,101 units. In FY16, tractor industry volume
de-grew 10.5% YoY. However, a low base & good monsoon has
revived tractor industry volumes (up 13.5% YoY on YTDFY17)
