4. Industry Info. and Analyst Views
The valuations look reasonable at this stage. Out of 80 auto ancillary stocks, the price-to-earnings, or
PE, ratios of 63 are lower than the figure of 21.36 for the industry as a whole.
The PE ratio shows the price paid for a stock relative to earnings per share. It is used to value
companies.
Experts are bullish on this sector for 2014-15. "The outlook is bright. An uptick in the domestic auto
industry, besides a pick-up in replacement demand, will give a fillip to the auto ancillary industry," says
Silky Jain, research analyst, Nirmal Bang Securities.
Prayesh Jain, vice president research, India Infoline, echoes Silky Jain. "The trend is expected to get
stronger over the next one year as political stability emerges and global markets continue to recover
from the financial crisis. Domestic revenues, too, will pick up from the second half of 2014-15.“
FACTORS TO WATCH
"Factors to be considered while investing in auto ancillary companies are which segment they service
and its growth prospects. A diversified customer base and wide geographical presence are preferable
too. One must also look at the management's record and the company's valuation," says Jain of India
Infoline.
Yaresh Kothari, analyst, automobile, Angel Broking, says, "The economic cycle is an important factor.
One should invest at the start of an upswing in the economy and prefer companies that have a
technological edge, good brands with pricing power, strong relationships with original equipment
manufacturers and a diversified business model.“
