3. Valuation

According to HDFC Securities, "DMART's unit economics remains sub-optimal vis-à-vis the prepandemic days (partly attributable to the step-up in store additions/size). While we factor in recovery over FY22-24, this assumption stands at risk, given the heightened competitive intensity from deep-pocketed retailers. Hence, we maintain SELL on DMART, with a DCF-based TP of INR 3,000/sh, implying 34x FY24 EV/EBITDA for the standalone business + 4x FY24 sales for DMART Ready."
