Buy GVK Power, target of Rs 23.9: IIFL

IIFL has recommended a buy rating on GVK Power & Infrastructure with target price of Rs 23.9 in its March 2, 2009 research report.
"The government has approved levy of a development fee (ADF) at Mumbai airport on an ad-hoc basis for a period of 48 months. The ADF considerably eases the fund crunch faced by the Mumbai airport and obviates the need for JV partners of Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL) to bring in additional equity. This is a major relief. Continuity of the ADF is contingent on review of land deals after six months. The levy adds Rs 3 per share to GVK’s SoTP as the government order has allowed real estate monetisation till Rs 10 billion before the levy is reviewed. Our assumptions of real estate monetisation in the initial phase are lower than the ceiling. Adjusting for a Re 1 per share potential hit due to VRS liability, we reckon there is an upside of 10% to GVK’s SOTP, Buy, target of Rs 23.9," says IIFL's research report.
