<strong>Institutional</strong> <strong>Equities</strong><br />

Focus on reduction of debt, working capital<br />

During FY08-11, there has been a significant jump in working capital requirement to 0.5x FY11sales and the<br />

working capital days increased to 300 days in 1QFY12. The debt-equity ratio increased from1.7x in FY10 to<br />

2.2x in FY11 due to investment in BOT portfolio, real estate, acquisition of KSAG overseas and is expected to<br />

further increase to 2.9x in FY13. Hence, the company has set up a strategic team to recover claims<br />

outstanding with various government agencies, which is around Rs10bn, and thereby reduce the leverage.<br />

The management expects to recover Rs4bn in FY12, which we have not factored in our model.<br />
