Buy NALCO stock for a target price of Rs 107: Motilal Oswal

The brokerage expect the tight demand-supply scenario, to lead to aluminium prices remaining at elevated levels over the coming months.

"The management has announced a 1mtpa alumina refinery expansion at a capital expenditure of Rs 64 billion, and expects to complete the project in FY23. Given its slow execution, we expect commissioning by FY24E. We value the stock on a SoTP basis at 5 times FY23E EV/EBITDA and at 0.75 times book value for growth CWIP to arrive at our target price of Rs 107. At the current market price, it provides an attractive dividend yield of 5%. We maintain our Buy rating," the brokerage has said.

Shares of NALCO last closed at Rs 82.20 on the National Stock Exchange.

Whirlpool of India: Buy with a price target of Rs 2,650

"Whirlpool of India's revenue growth doesn't suggest any market share loss, providing us confidence in the strong White Goods franchise. On a relative basis, demand for Washing Machines and Refrigerators can potentially surprise over the next six months v/s a seasonal category like ACs, provided consumer demand holds good as the economy opens up. We cut our FY22E/23E EPS by 10% each to factor in higher than expected input cost pressures.

Our target price stands at Rs 2,650/share (earlier: Rs 2,900 per share) as we roll forward our valuation to Sep'23E EPS, but cut our target P/E to 50 times from 55 times earlier. We maintain our Buy rating," the brokerage has said in its report.
