Rationale for a ‘Buy' on Techno Electric:

ICICI Direct maintains BUY on the scrip of Techno Electric on healthy cashflow with cash and equivalents of Rs.8 billion, and benign valuation. "Despite challenges, the company is confident of maintaining margins at 15%. Given healthy growth outlook
and cashflow, we maintain BUY with revised SoTP-based target price of Rs332. We believe the foray into data centre business will be positive in the long run as it gives an avenue to utilise the wind power efficiently and provides the company a foothold in a promising growth segment. Using the SoTP methodology, we value the standalone EPC business at Rs211 (20x FY23E earnings), discounted cashflow from wind
assets at Rs.44, transmission assets at Rs.10 per share and cash and equivalents at Rs. 66 per share", says the brokerage.
