2. BSE:
For the BSE scrip, HDFC Securities has maintained its previous 'Buy' rating but raised target price from Rs. 1075 to Rs. 1385. This is against the last traded price of Rs. 1198.7, meaning a decent return of 15.54 percent.
The brokerage house has continued with its 'Buy' call on BSE owing to better than expected EBITDA. Further its market share in the cash segment has come in at 7.2 percent while it is working on to rebuild the derivatives volume, whose current market share is placed at only approximately 6.5%.
"Revenue growth will be led by continued growth in transaction volume, StAR MF and stable listing revenue. INX, which is growing strongly, can be a revenue driver if BSE starts charging (expected in FY23E). We increase the EPS estimate by +10.2/9.6% for FY22/23E, based on volume uptick and better margin. We assign an SoTP-based target price of INR 1,385, by assigning 20x (earlier 15x) to core June-23E PAT (Rs. 546/share), Rs. 466/share for the CDSL stake, and adding net cash of Rs. 372/share", added the brokerage.
