Bajaj Auto (BJAUT)'s 3QFY22 beat was driven by lower RM cost pressures and favorable Fx. While exports remained robust and domestic 3W continued to recover, domestic 2Ws are yet to see recovery. In EVs, BJAUT is focusing on aggressively rolling out Chetak after ironing out supply chain issues. The e-3W launch is planned for FY23E. While we maintain our EPS estimates, we cut our P/E multiple to 16x (v/s 18x earlier) to account for hyper-competition in e-2Ws and the EV threat to...

We maintain our BUY rating on the stock with a revised TP of Rs 4,250/share (Rs 4,500 earlier) (which includes Rs 320/share for the company's stake in PMAG) as we value the stock at 17x its FY24E EPS.

Bajaj Auto's 3QFY22 performance came in-line with our estimates, with realization growing 12% YoY on the back of price hikes and higher exports (56% of the total volumes vs 53/54% YoY/QoQ). We remain positive on Bajaj's growth story as (1) exports are expected to drive the show in near-term, with management targeting 2.5mn units in FY22 vs a peak of 2.1mn in FY20 (2)...

Bajaj Auto (BJAUT) Q2FY22 PAT was above our estimates on account of higher than expected EBITDA margins and higher average per unit realizations. We expect domestic 2W market to remain soft in Q3FY22 and likely to post recovery during Q4FY22 while export market continues to show improvement for BJAUT. The Company is anticipated to face margin pressure during Q3FY22, due to high raw material prices. To factor in weakness in domestic 2W market and raw material cost inflation, we revise our Sales and PAT estimates by -1.9%/-12% and -1.2%/-11.2% for FY22E and FY23E respectively. The Company is expected to report EPS of Rs201 and Rs224 for FY23 and FY24...

We upgrade BJAUT to ACCUMULATE' at a revised TP of Rs 4,223 (earlier Rs 3,923) and slightly tweak our estimates to roll over to Sep-23. The company's 2QFY22 revenue came ahead of expectation driven by growth in realization...
