India, EU likely to sign trade agreement next week
India and the European Union are all set to sign a bilateral trade and investment promotion agreement to liberalise trade in goods, services and investment far quicker than expected. The high-level trade group constituted to look into the possibility of such an agreement has given its green signal. The time period for completion of the negotiations and implementation of the agreement will be two years, a timeframe much shorter than any other trade pact that India has entered into so far. The seriousness with which both the EU and India are treating the proposed agreement spells a bonanza for the Indian service industry, which is expected to be a major beneficiary of the agreement.

IT stocks cheerful on Q2 no expectations
Expectations that the second quarter results of the Indian IT services sector would be healthy and that top-tier Indian software companies would continue to report strong volume growth, have been driving interest in software company stocks on the bourses. The BSE-IT Index outperformed other indices on Thursday, with huge buying seen in Moser-Baer, Infosys, Wipro, Satyam, Patni Computer, MphasiS BFL and TCS. The first quarter this fiscal was an exceptional one, aided by good volume growth as well as a weaker rupee. They expect volume growth to be the major driver of the topline growth in Q2 FY 07, as the impact of the rupee this time around may not be as significant as it was in the first quarter.

ABC Bearings-Smooth Tapered Bearings
ABC Bearings-Smooth Rolling
BSE 505665, CMP Rs 165
Shares o/s: 11.5 mn
EPS FY06: Rs 13.6
EPS FY07 e: Rs 18
PE on FY06 : 12.5
PE on FY07 e earnings: 9
ABC bearing's 1QFY07 net sales grew by 31% YoY to Rs 56 crore. Ramp up in sales was mainly due to strong growth in all the serviced segments viz cars (including a resurgence in supplies for the Toyota models like Innova), commercial vehicles and the tractors segment. Higher volume growth also became possible as additional capacities created in Q4 FY06 at Bharuch began to contribute to the top and bottomline.
During the first quarter of FY07 ABC has grown to become the Number 1 in India for Automotive Tapered Roller Bearings.
With capacity expansions in place, ABC is likely to consolidate its position by showing much higher growth than the industry growth in the current financial.
ABC continues to focus on achieving the growth in profitability through continuous cost reduction measures, Kaizen, OEE improvement and optimum utilisation of resources.
While ABC continues to remain strong in the OE business, the after market segment has shown substantial growth as a result of increased dealer network and improved services.
The proof lies in the numbers
Q1 Revenues were placed at Rs 56 crore (Rs 42 crore), with after tax profits at Rs 5.3 crore (Rs 3.5 crore). Q1 EPS rose to Rs 4.7 (Rs 3). These numbers compare favourably with FY 06 Revenues of Rs 176 crore (Rs 149 crore), PAT of Rs 15.7 crore (Rs 11.5 crore) and EPS of Rs 13.6 (Rs 9.98).
Outlook and valuations
The outlook for the auto ancillary sector remains buoyant. ABC Bearings with its strong technical collaboration with NSK Japan is well positioned to leverage global opportunities and improve its competitiveness in the domestic automobile market.
With robust performance from the company and better outlook going forward Revenues are expected to cross the Rs 210 crore mark in FY07, with after tax profits closer to the Rs 21 crore mark.
At the current market price of Rs170, the stock trades at 12.5x and 9.0x earnings FY06A and FY07E respectively.
The stock could attain a price target of Rs 225 in a year.
Power of Compounding
If you invest Rs. 1 lakh on Oct-2006 and assume that you are getting 20% gain each time for 6 transaction in a year (Ofcourse it is difficult but possible on good market sentiments and selection of good stocks / sectors ).
Continue to re-invest the capital + profit and do this for 5 years till Oct-2011.
At the end of 5 years you will be having a whopping 2,37,37,631.
