According to the brokerage, Fluoropolymers business is likely to undergo a major shake-up from rising regulatory concerns due to use of PFAS class products. This could potentially lead to a huge opportunity for Gujarat Fluorochemicals (GFL) and address one of the key concerns on the company about durability of growth in fluoropolymers business. It will also help GFL move up in fluoropolymers value chain which will likely aid realisation / cushion any price decline. GFL has three key ingredients to win TFE-based fluoropolymers business - 1) leading position in non-fluorinated aid for manufacturing fluoropolymers; 2) enough capacity to fill gap vacated by key global peers, and accommodate volume for growing demand from semicon and green hydrogen; and 3) access to market as it has a strong foothold in Europe/US. "We see an upside risk to our estimates for GFL; however, for now, we maintain our estimates, and target price at Rs4,270 (30x FY24E EPS). Reiterate BUY," the brokerage has said.
