LIC Housing Finance | 2QFY2017 Result Update
Outlook and valuation
While the core retail portfolio continues to be sluggish growing by less than 10%,
other segments like LAP & Developers loans have been driving the growth.
However, there is visible sign of pick up in the growth in some pockets for the core
retail loans. We expect the company to post a loan book CAGR of 19% over FY16-
18E, translating into an earning CAGR of 18.0% over the same period. The stock
currently trades at 2.2x its FY2018E ABV. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock
with a revised target price of `630.
