We estimate an FY22E adj. RoE is at 9.8%, and value GICRE at 0.7x FY22E ABV less 10% discount for an additional 10.8% stake to be sold by GoI. GIC Reinsurance: GICRE is Indias largest reinsurer but continues to make significant underwriting losses (1QFY21 COR: 112.9%). A calibrated approach to underwriting is expected to change this over FY21-23E. While we are not entirely convinced about the pathway to underwriting profitability, inexpensive valuations FY22E P/ABV of 0.5xresult in our BUY recommendation with a 9.8% lower target price of Rs 165.

GICRE is India's largest reinsurer but continues to make high underwriting losses (FY20 COR: 113.8%). A calibrated approach to underwriting is expected to change this over FY21-23E. While we are not fully convinced about the pathway to underwriting profitability, inexpensive valuations- FY22E P/ABV of 0.6x result in our BUY recommendation with a TP of Rs 185. We estimate an FY22E adj. RoE at 7.4%, and value GICRE at 0.7x FY22E ABV less 10% discount. We continue to rate GICRE a BUY with a TP of Rs 185 (Mar-22E P/ABV of 0.6x). Higher losses in agriculture and aviation led to increased 4QFY20 claims ratio of 89.1%, +1,917/-1,788bps YoY/QoQ. This resulted in underwriting losses of Rs 7.2bn. Investment income was hit by higher provisions of Rs 3.8bn bringing yield down to 7.7%. 4QFY20 APAT was Rs 12.2bn (+37.5% YoY). NEP: Led by healthy growth in property/health i.e., 71.7/17.5% YoY, 4QFY20 NEP grew 43.6% YoY to Rs 76.6bn. For FY20 the company delivered an NEP of Rs 443.5bn (+16.0% YoY).

We rate GICRE a BUY with a TP of Rs 270. We recently met with the management of GICRE and are hopeful that the steps taken- increase in insurance rates for property, and expected lower crop insurance in FY21E, will reduce combined ratios.

Target: 264 | Upside : 116.2%
HDFC Securities
GICRE is India's largest reinsurer but continues to make high underwriting losses (9M COR: 116%). While price hikes in property will improve underwriting profits, high proportion of crop business will add to volatility. We estimate an FY22E adj. RoE at 9.9%, and thus value GICRE at 0.9x Dec-21E ABV less 5% discount. We rate GICRE a NEUTRAL with a TP of Rs 264. Higher losses in agriculture and property led to increased claims ratio i.e. 107.0%, +2,379/-274bps YoY/QoQ; this resulted in highest (since listing) underwriting losses of Rs 27.4bn. 3QFY20 reported loss was at Rs 10.4bn!

Target: 250 | Target met
HDFC Securities
GICRE is India's largest reinsurer but continues to make high underwriting losses mainly in its foreign operations (1H:125%). We thus remain concerned of company's plans to increase foreign business. We estimate an FY22E adj. RoE of just 10.0%, and with stable growth we can at best assign a valuation of just 0.8x Sep-21E ABV. Given recent run up in price, we downgrade the stock to NEUTRAL with an unchanged TP of Rs 250 (0.8x Sep-21E ABV). GICREs 2QFY20 saw a NEP increase 7.5% YoY to Rs 118.6bn; COR (calc.) declined 208bps YoY to 125.1%. High COR in foreign operations is a concern, as GICRE failed yet again to meet its guidance of lower COR.
