2. Expert View On ITC
According to leading brokerage Motilal Oswal in 3 weeks back report, "The Hotels business bounced back towards the end of FY22 after the third Covid wave disrupted demand in Jan'22. The company's earnings CAGR at the PBT level stood at 5% over FY17-22. We expect ITC to post a 15% earnings CAGR over FY22-24. While valuations of global Tobacco peers have been restored to their pre-pandemic levels (Jan'19), ITC still trades at a 24% discount to its Jan'19 valuation of 25.4x one-year forward EPS. We value ITC at 21x FY24E EPS, implying a 65% premium to its global peer average. We believe the premium multiples are justified, given its strong visibility over the medium term and the defensive nature of its business, especially in a volatile macro environment."
