Edelweiss Securities Limited
J Kumar Infraprojects (JKIL) is an emerging infrastructure player,
primarily involved in the urban infrastructure segment in the capacity of
an EPC contractor. We estimate the company to post 25% earnings CAGR
over FY12-15 riding robust order book (book-to-bill at 4.8x at Q3FY13
end), low leverage (D/E at 0.4x) and geographical & segmental
diversification. We value the contracting business at one year forward
P/E of 6.5x, arriving at a target price of INR310 (implying 41% upside
from CMP). We initiate coverage with ‘BUY’.
Robust revenue, diversification to catapult into big league
JKIL, primarily present in the transportation (roads, metro, bridges and flyovers) space,
has embarked on a high growth trajectory, posting a revenue and PAT CAGR of 53%
each over FY07-12. The company boasted of an INR47bn order book at Q3FY13 end
(including INR8bn L1 orders). Robust revenue visibility and diversification into new
segments and geographies will be the springboard of stable growth in the future.
Focus on profitable growth with healthy return ratios
The company’s operating margins, leverage and working capital are amongst the best
in the industry, so are its return ratios (RoE upwards of 16%). The reason behind the
company’s high margins is its strategy of not sub-contracting work to smaller
contractors. Management has stressed that operating margin will not be sacrificed at
the altar of revenue growth. Also, JKIL is steering clear of BOT projects as it aims to
keep its balance sheet light. Ergo, its RoE is expected to inch closer to 20% in future.
Outlook and valuations: Attractive; initiate with ‘BUY’
Robust order book and resilient execution will propel JKIL’s earnings CAGR to 25% over
FY12-15E. We arrive at a target price of INR310/share, assigning a 6.5x P/E to FY15E
earnings. We believe, scaling up of operations will equip JKIL with a better risk-reward
profile going ahead. We initiate coverage with ‘BUY’ recommendation.

Investment Rationale
Strong growth prospects backed by robust execution skills
JKIL is an emerging player in the infrastructure space. The company primarily works as an
EPC contractor in the urban infrastructure segment and is present in the transportation
(roads, metro, bridges and flyovers), buildings, irrigation and piling segments.
The company’s promoters have been in the contracting business since 1980 (starting as
maintenance contractor of PWD buildings). JKIL was originally incorporated as J. Kumar &
Company (India) in December 1999. It started its operations in 2004 subsequent to the
transfer of the Class 1A registration of J. Kumar & Company to JKIL.
JKIL has been mostly active in infrastructure projects in the Mumbai, Pune, Aurangabad and
Vidharbha regions of Maharashtra, besides undertaking piling contracts for projects across
India. Over the past couple of years, the company has won projects in other regions like
Delhi, Gujarat, Rajasthan as well. It enjoys various accreditations such as the QA certification
of ISO 9001:2000 certification for quality management system.
JKIL has been on a high growth trajectory, posting revenue and PAT CAGR of 53% from FY07-
12. Strong revenue visibility as well as diversification into new segments and geographies
will provide stable growth going ahead.
Rapid order book growth improves revenue visibility
With a modest beginning in FY05, JKIL has scaled up substantially over the years. Its order
book has ballooned from INR30.0mn at FY05 end to INR47bn (including INR8bn L1 orders) at
Q3FY13 end. The 4.8x order book/revenue ratio at Q3FY13 end provides strong revenue
visibility over the medium term.

Transportation engineering projects contribute the lion’s share of the current order book;
irrigation and civil construction projects contribute majority of the balance.

Corresponding to the order book, transportation engineering projects also contribute bulk
to the revenue. Though share of piling in the order book is minuscule, its contribution to
revenue is higher on account of piling projects being of smaller duration.
JVs to augment pre-qualification as well as execution capabilities
The company has partnered with reputed companies like China Railway No.3 Engineering
Group (CRTG) and Nagarjuna Construction (NCC) for JVs. This strategy is likely to enhance its
pre-qualification capabilities and enable it to execute bigger and more complex projects in
the future.

Focus on profitable growth with healthy return ratios
JKIL’s debt/equity at 0.4x at Q2FY13 end is amongst the lowest in the construction industry;
same is the case with its return ratio—RoE of ~17% in FY12 is amongst the best among
contracting peers. This is a result of the following factors:
• Management has maintained that revenue growth will not be at the expense of
operating margin. The company does not sub-contract work on its projects to smaller
contractors, so as to save on margin. Thus, JKIL has been able to maintain high margin
even when order book growth has been sluggish.
Table 2: JKIL’s operating margins are higher than its peers
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
• JKIL has steered clear of BOT projects; this arises from the management’s desire to
keep its balance sheet light. Also, the company believes that intense competition along
with back-ended nature of returns for BOT projects negate the advantage of revenue
visibility that BOT projects bring in.

• JKIL has efficiently managed its working capital cycle, which at 115 days (ex-cash) at
FY12 end was amongst the better ones in the industry. The company is confident of
maintaining its working capital cycle at similar level.
Table 4: JKIL’s working capital cycle is better than its peers
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
Table 5: JKIL boasts of best-in-class RoEs
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
As a result of these factors, the company has managed to maintain its return ratios at a
healthy level in spite of being in growth stage. Going ahead, it expects PAT growth to
outstrip revenue growth and RoEs to inch closer to 20%.
Derisking business model to ensure sustainable growth
In the initial growth years, the company focused on the urban infrastructure segment;
majority of the company’s orders came from the state of Maharashtra, specifically the
Mumbai Metropolitan and Pune regions. Maharashtra State Road Development Corp.
(MSRDC), Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), Municipal
Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) etc., used to provide the lion’s share of projects in
order book.
With growth in operations, JKIL has taken steps to ensure that the business model gets
diversified to de-risk future growth. This led to the company spreading its wings in other
regions like Rajasthan, Gujarat, Delhi etc. As a result, now nearly 50% of its order book is
from outside Maharashtra.

Chart 5: Geographical diversification of order book
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
Similarly, going beyond its traditional strength in the roads and bridges segment, the
company ventured into other verticals like piling, buildings, marine transportation and
irrigation. It has recently entered the promising metro rail segment by winning ~INR14bn
worth orders from Delhi Metro for design and construction of tunnels. Also, it has tried to
broad base its client base by winning orders from the private sector as well to counter any
slowdown in spending from the government.
Chart 6: Share of government projects in order book has dipped
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
Again, to benefit from economies of scale, JKIL has tried to graduate to bigger order sizes. It
won an INR6bn order from Essel Group for widening the Sion-Panvel highway. Similarly, it
won an INR5.2bn order for construction of a building from Uttar Pradesh Rajkiya Nirman
Nigam. It is also L1 in a marine transportation project awarded by MSRDC.
We believe management’s efforts to enter new segments, geographies and to take on more
challenging jobs will minimise concentration risk and support a secular earnings trajectory.

Strong equipment bank aids timely execution
JKIL owns a large fleet of sophisticated equipment required for project execution. These
include excavators and loaders, hydraulic piling rigs, rollers, transit mixers, excavators,
concrete batching plants etc. This has enabled the company complete projects on time
without resorting to leasing of equipments, and thus save on lease rentals. JKIL believes that
in the long term, leased equipments are cost ineffective, and therefore, ownership and use
of modern construction equipment results in cost savings.
The company also has its own RMC units in Delhi, Pune, Alwar, Mumbai, among others;
majority of the output is used for captive consumption, and the surplus, if any, is sold in the
open market.

Valuation
Order book, execution to propel earnings
JKIL’s earnings have followed the high growth trajectory of its revenue. Its net profit posted
a CAGR of 53% between FY07 and FY12. We expect the company’s revenue growth to pick
up from FY14E following the strong order inflows in FY13. As a result of the increasing base,
we expect the company’s earnings to post 25% CAGR over FY12-15E backed by strong order
book and robust execution strength. We believe JKIL will be able to manage its working
capital cycle efficiently, keeping debt levels in check. As a result, its RoEs are likely to inch
closer to the 20% mark in future.
Re-rating will follow profitable execution
With JKIL on a fast track to growth, the company’s operations are likely to expand
significantly going ahead. We believe the company will be able to perform strongly on the
execution front in the future while continuing to operate at high profitability. The associated
risk with a relatively small scale of operations in the contracting business should also
minimise with the company’s operations expanding, enabling JKIL to achieve a better risk-
reward profile going ahead.
We have valued JKIL at INR310/share, assigning a 6.5x P/E to FY15E earnings. We initiate
coverage on the stock with a ‘BUY’ recommendation.

Key Risks
Segment concentration risk
Majority of JKIL’s orders are from the transportation segment. This exposes it to
concentration risk arising from exposure to a particular segment.
Execution risk
While JKIL has done well over the past couple of years, it has yet to demonstrate its
execution capabilities in new segments and geographies that the company is entering. Also,
the average size of projects is increasing and they also involve higher level of complexity
than what the company has encountered so far. Completion of such projects within the
stipulated time and cost will be paramount to maintain profitability.
Profitability risks
Historically, JKIL’s operating profitability has been higher than its peers. This can be
explained partly by the geographical and segmental concentration of the order book, which
leads to better control over costs. With the expansion in size of operations, particularly to
new geographies and segments, JKIL may face challenges in maintaining similar levels of
profitability.
Also, with increasing size of projects, JKIL will face competition from bigger, more
experienced and established players. Such heightened competition can lead to margin
dilution.

Financial Outlook
Order inflows to remain strong; revenue to grow steadily
Backed by the government’s thrust on improving infrastructure, we expect the buoyancy on
the order intake front to continue for JKIL going forward. With the realty segment too
showing signs of revival, orders from the building construction segment too are likely to pick
up.
We expect JKIL’s revenue to post 24% CAGR between FY12 and FY15E. Even though the
company has displayed impressive execution capability till date, it will have to contend with
the higher base effect going ahead.
Chart 7: Robust order intake to drive revenue growth
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
Operating profitability to remain stable
With the expansion in business operations, we expect JKIL to benefit from operating de-
leverage. We believe this will compensate for the necessary expenditures on meeting the
capex and working capital demands of the rapidly growing business. As a result, we believe
JKIL’s EBITDA and PAT margins are likely to be stable going forward.

Debt to remain in control despite rising growth needs
JKIL’s debt-equity stood at 0.4x at end Q2FY13. We expect it to remain within control over
the next couple of years. In spite of the rapidly growing size of operations, the company has
kept a tight leash on debt. This is a result of its higher margins as well as efficient working
capital management.
Chart 10: Net worth and D/E ratio - Steady leverage levels
Source: Company, Edelweiss research
We believe, while JKIL will have to increasingly spend more on meeting growth
requirements of its business, it should be able to keep its leverage levels in check.
Superior return ratios due to high profitability and efficient operations
Despite being in the growth stage, the company has managed to post excellent return ratios
in its short history. RoE of ~17% and RoCE of ~23% in FY12 are the best amongst its
contracting peers. The primary reason for the excellent return ratios is the higher
profitability as well as efficient working capital cycle management.

churns. This will help the company improve its return ratios.

Funding requirements in tune with increase in size of operations
Since the company is in growth phase, its fund requirements are majorly from the capex
side as well as to meet the increased working capital requirements. Over the years, JKIL has
made judicious use of debt as well as equity to meet its funding requirements. We believe
going ahead, its internal accruals will be sufficient to meet majority of the funding
requirements. Any shortfall will be met by further debt infusion in the company.

Urban infrastructure metrics in India
India, like most other developing countries, is witnessing a wave of urbanisation. The
percentage of population living in cities rose by 3.35% between 2001 and 2011; this rate of
growth was just 2.1% in 1991-2001, suggesting an increase in the rate of migration to urban
areas.
As per Census 2011, ~31% of India’s population, translating to 377mn, lives in urban areas.
It is projected that with the increase in the rate of urbanisation, ~600mn Indians will reside
in urban areas by 2031. This will be a sharp increase of 200mn in just 20 years and is likely to
add to the already existing pressure on urban infrastructure systems like transport, water
supply, sewerage and drainage, solid waste management etc.
On most parameters of urban development, India lags other developing countries. Only 27%
of urban transport in India is accounted for by public transport. Worse, the share of the
public transport fleet is on a declining trend; it dropped from 11% in 1951 to a meager 1.1%
in 2001. In 2009, only 20 out of 85 Indian cities with a population of 0.5 mn had bus services.
Government estimates suggest that individual water connections are available with 70.6%
of urban population in India (91% in China, 86% in South Africa and 80% in Brazil). The
duration of water supply in Indian cities is also less at 1-6 hours, compared with round the
clock supply in Brazil and China and 22 hours in Vietnam.
Also, 70% of water leakages occur from consumer connections and due to malfunctioning of
water meters. Non-revenue water (NRW) accounts for 50% of water production compared
with 5% in Singapore.
When it comes to sanitation, even a partial sewerage network is absent in close to 5,000
cities and towns in India. As per Census 2011, 37% of urban households are connected with
open drainage while 18% have no connection at all. As per a 2009 report of the Central
Pollution Control Board (CPCB), only ~20% of the sewage generated was treated before
disposal in Class I cities and Class II towns (as per 2001 census).
This rapid shift to cities is creating a large slum population in all major cities in India. The
Technical Group on the estimation of housing shortage projected a shortage of 18.8mn
dwelling units in urban areas in 2012. The projected slum population in India was ~95mn in
2012. Against this, the number of dwelling units sanctioned under JNNURM form 2005-12
was a paltry 1.6mn.
The above parameters paint a scary picture of the urban infrastructure in India. It clearly
suggests that investments in the urban infrastructure sector are woefully inadequate to
meet these requirements.

Eleventh Plan targets and achievement for urban infrastructure
It was estimated that ~INR1,300bn was required for implementation of the Eleventh plan
targets for urban water supply, sewerage and sanitation, drainage and solid waste
management.
Table 1: Estimated fund requirement for urban infrastructure over 2007-12
Source: Govt documents, Edelweiss research
Also, the Working group Report on Urban Transport for Eleventh Five Year Plan had
estimated that INR1,325bn was required for improving the urban transport system.
In order to meet these targets, the Government of India took various steps. The flagship
programme for this is the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). It
covers 63 cities with population above 1mn as per 2001 census, including 35 metro cities,
state capitals and culturally important towns.
The programme, which ran from 2005-12 had a budget of INR1,200bn. The Central
government had committed INR500bn as additional Central Assistance (ACA) under
JNNURM for its two sub-missions and two omnibus schemes. Recent reports suggest that
~INR800bn has been spent on JNNURM since 2005. The eventual central allocation reached
INR660bn by March 2012 leading to overall committed investment of INR1,237bn under the
scheme.
The government is also planning to launch second version of JNNURM i.e., JNNURM 2 with a
size of INR2,200bn to be spent over the next five years.
Notwithstanding the government’s efforts, the investment in this sector is falling short of
requirements. For e.g., the Eleventh Plan had anticipated an investment of INR1,437bn over
2007-12 in the water supply and sanitation segment. Against this, the actual investment is
likely to be just two-thirds of this. Keeping in mind this shortfall, the government has set an
aggressive target for the Twelfth Five Year Plan with INR2,435bn projected to be spent on
this area.

The way ahead
The Ministry of Urban Development had set up a High Powered Expert Committee (HPEC)
under the chairpersonship of Dr. Isher Judge Ahluwalia. The committee has suggested that
~INR40,000bn as capital expenditure and another INR20,000bn for operation &
maintenance (O&M) expenditure (as per 2009-10 prices) are estimated to be required for
urban infrastructure over the next 20 years.
Of this, INR17,300bn will be required for urban roads, INR8,000bn for sectors delivering
urban services such as water supply, sewerage, solid waste management and storm water
drains and INR4,000bn for renewal and redevelopment including slums.
The committee had also recommended that the scale of JNNURM should be expanded from
the current 0.1% of GDP to 0.25% of GDP every year.

For the Twelfth Plan period, the working group constituted by the Planning Commission on
financing urbanisation has worked INR2,884bn as the requirement of investment for the
urban transport sectors.
