LIC plans to sell RCap bonds worth Rs 3,400 crore hit another roadblock.

LIC plans to sell RCap bonds worth Rs. 3,400 crore hit another roadblock.

Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) once again failed to sell secured bonds of Reliance Capital worth Rs 3,400 crore. Now, a non-governmental organization (NGO) is seeking a ban on the bidders who are part of the bankruptcy process.

New Delhi-based NGO — Infrastructure Watchdog — has suspected that the prospective bidders are ‘insiders’ as defined under SEBI rules as they were given access to privileged and confidential business information. This includes Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI), which is not available in the public domain, the NGO said in a letter sent to LIC and its advisor – IDBI Capital Markets & Securities.

The administrator had invited Expression of Interest (EoI) for RCap and its assets from the prospective bidders as a part of CIRP. Many potential bidders, who are interested in acquiring RCap, have submitted their EoIs.

Access to the sensitive information is with the additional members of the Committee of Creditors (CoC), constituted by the administrator. Some CoC members have also submitted their EoIs and are conducting due diligence. Under SEBI’s (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulation, 2015, these CoC members are also ‘insiders’.

The NGO has demanded the LIC and IDBI Capital Markets to ensure that such members are not qualified to join the bond sale process. Moreover, the NGO also want the sellers to obtain an undertaking from bidders, that they neither submitted any nor will participate in RCap’s bankruptcy process and are not members of the CoC.

On 11th July 2022, LIC stretched the deadline to submit bids for bond sales by another 11 days up to July 22. Since July 2021 LIC is trying to sell its bonds but is facing a lot of hurdles. The bonds are now trading at 70% discount. LIC has failed two times earlier. This was because the LIC and prospective buyers could not arrive at a price consensus.

Before the deadline, LIC is expecting the prospective buyers to submit their bids. The company is expecting to recover a minimum of 30% of the bond amount.

RCap is going through insolvency proceedings. The creditors of the former Anil Ambani group company is seeking Rs 23,666 crore in dues. There are only five bidders including a consortium led by Piramal Enterprises, actively pursuing the process, as against the 54 EoIs the firm had received in March.

Z47 Launches $400M Fund for India's Tech Boom

Euro to decline in parity with US Dollars.

Euro to decline in parity with US Dollars:

On Tuesday, euro reached in parity with US dollars for the first time in 20 years. The currency has been declining consistently amid fear of recession and, threats from Russia to reduce gas supply to Germany and other euro zone countries. The stress on the currency is also beyond the German gas shortage, as there are power cutbacks in France contributing to the decline. This means, there will be requirement of more euros to settle a payment in dollars. The export-oriented manufacturers, automobiles and chemicals sector are benefited the most from the currency decline. There is maximum distress in import-oriented businesses. Europeans tourist have to spend more euros for their trips to US or other nations who have pegged there currency to dollar.  

The impact of falling currency differs in various sector based on their dependence on foreign exchange rates. There will be more requirement of euros, if a business imports raw materials or other products. The goods that are imported in euro zone, only 40% are settled in euro rest is settled in dollars. For instance, oil and gas are imported and paid in dollars, but due to the Ukraine crisis, there was a surge in prices. This results in inflation and slowdown in the economy. A weakening in euro rates can have actual disruptions in costs. On the other hand, if businesses export outside the euro area, they benefit from the fall as prices become more competitive.

There is a boost in exports of European goods and services as the currency falls, making the currency more competitive. However, this won’t have much significance as inflation due to the Ukraine war will diminish all benefits. If there is no slowdown in the economy, they can repay their debt obligations faster and get rid of them. For nations who have issued dollar designated debt, this will increase the cost of debt repayment.

In order to curb inflation and declining exchange rates, ECB (European Central Bank) might raise interest rates more aggressively. If euro depreciates further, there would create difficulty in EBCs efforts to restrain inflation.

Easing of risk weights on loans given to MFIs and NBFCs

Loan growth, higher margins, and lower costs to drive bank bottom lines in Q1.

Loan growth, higher margins, and lower costs to drive bank bottom lines in Q1.

 

Indian banks are predicted to post strong core earnings growth in the June quarter. This is due to the improved margins and decline in credit costs. However, rising yields may affect the marked-to-market losses impacting the earnings. The analysts estimated that the credit growth for the banking system will increase by 12%, driven by private banks. Net interest margins may go up by 3%. This is due to better net interest income and an upward interest rate cycle. The treasury loss and lower fees may decline the other income by 27%.

 

The net profit of the overall banking is predicted to drop by 11.5% on QoQ basis. The margin outlook, guidance on deposit accretion for some banks and treasury loss have to be monitored.

 

State Bank of India (CMP Rs. 484.95) is expected to report strong PAT growth. HDFC Bank (CMP Rs. 1,391.80) may report a drop in net profit and NIM is expected to remain range-bound. Kotak Mahindra Bank (CMP Rs. 1718.95) could continue improvement in loan growth however net profit might decline on a QoQ basis. ICICI Bank (CMP Rs. 759.90) might maintain its loan growth momentum as retail continues to see traction while Axis margins are expected to improve. The banks that have a higher share of floating rate books, including mortgages, could have increased credit growth, and rising interest rates. Valuations have also been corrected. This provides a margin of safety. Additionally, asset quality is on the mend, with the risk of a fresh NPA cycle remaining low. This should lead to healthy profitability and return ratios for banks. The gross bad loans might ease up and the overall slippages, recoveries and provisions may return to normal.

According to analysts, the overall Gross non-performing assets ratio is estimated to decline by 20 basis points or by 5.2% in the June quarter. Further, there will be lower slippages reflecting a low EMI bounce rate at 22%, better recovery trends in retail and higher w-offs with banks sitting on excess provisions. Asset quality is expected to improve. As increasing interest rates and the end of the moratorium are building pressure, stress behaviour in the MSME segment needs to be monitored.

AXISCADES Wins $1.2M Aircraft Cabin Interiors Contracts
Business, Market News, Markets - July 12, 2022

Indigo to "rationalise" salaries of technicians following mass sick leave.

Indigo to “rationalise” salaries of technicians following mass sick leave.

 

On 2nd July 2022, a large number of its cabin crew members took sick leave, to participate in the competitor’s Air India recruitment drive. As a result, 55% of Indigo’s domestic flights were delayed.

Indigo has decided to “rationalise” the salaries of its aircraft technicians and remove “anomalies caused by the pandemic”

On Friday, 22 out of 25 of the airline’s aircraft maintenance technicians went on sick leave in Hyderabad and Delhi. They skipped work to protest against their salaries and low increments. Continuous salary cuts during the pandemic added fuel to the employee’s already simmering anger. In April, Indigo suspended some of its employees due to the pandemic. This led to the mass sick leave of the employees indicating a protest. The DGCA ordered Indigo to compensate passengers for delayed flights.

Indigo expects higher attrition levels among its crew, as Air India is hiring aggressively and Akasa Air and Jet Airways are starting their operations this year. This has created a lot of opportunities in the aviation industry.

Indigo had cut down the salaries of its employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. Last week, the has increased the salaries of pilots and cabin crew by 8%. On the other hand, Air India has restored the salaries of its employees by 75 %.

On Monday, an email was sent to the aircraft maintenance technicians by SC Gupta the Vice President (Engineering) of Indigo. The email sent by him was accessed by PTI. He stated that, the Covid-19 pandemic severely affected the aviation industry over the past 30 months. He also mentioned that the technician’s commitment towards the company has remained consistent through difficult times. He further said that he is apprised of the concerns about salary increase and during the last two years the company have not been able to revise the compensation. He has shared that the company will “rationalise” the salaries of its aircraft technicians. This will come into effect from August 1, 2022.

 

Currently, the share price of Interglobe Aviation Ltd is Rs. 1701.35. The price increased by 6.70 points or by 0.40%. The opening price was Rs.1696.65 and closing Rs. 1694.65. The market cap of the company is Rs. 65,545.

Adani group to enter into 5G spectrum

Adani group to enter into 5G spectrum:

 Gautam Adani, a led conglomerate to engage in a bidding clash with Reliance & Airtel for 5G spectrum. Adani Group’s entry into the 5G spectrum will result in intensified competition for revenue. Analysts believe Adani Group to engage in a battle for 5G airwaves auction. The auction will be on July 26, in both the coveted but expensive 3.3-3.67 GHz and the cheaper 26 GHz bands. Adani Group as the fourth bidder will increase sell off the spectrum. This will lead to more sales of the spectrum, which is good for the government. The price will rise 10% over the reserve price of Rs.317Cr. a unit.

Adani Group clarifies it doesn’t want to enter the consumer mobility space but would participate in the upcoming auction. Adani Group intends to provide private network solutions with enhanced security at its airports, logistics, power generation, distribution, and manufacturing units. They mentioned their plans align with their recent proposition of increasing the Adani Foundation’s investment in education, skill developments, and healthcare. Despite their current focus being on 5G private captive networks, they would target both 5G airwaves 26 GHz and C-band also called mid-band. As ecosystems are now developed around C-band and not much around 26GHz waves.

Adani telco will include services in automation of factories, remote education centers or remote working facilities, and other 5G storage solutions. Spectrum leasing means one company leasing spectrum from telecoms for a fee to corporates keen to invest in such networks. The large corporates can be setting networks on their own or in a tie-up with a technology company. Adani group will have the facility to serve enterprise offerings which include the private network as a service. The entry of Adani Group could make difficult situations for cash-strapped Vodafone Idea. This would dampen future revenue streams for the current telecom companies. Vodafone Idea may either overbid or miss out on the opportunity to participate in the auction.

The Centre plans 72Ghz worth 4.5 lakh Cr. to be valid for 20 years at the base price in various low bands (600 Mhz, 700 Mhz, 800 Mhz, 900 Mhz, 1800 Mhz, 2100 Mhz, 2300, 2500 Mhz), mid (3.3-3.67 GHz) and high (26 GHz) frequency bands. However, the government expects telecoms to use both mid and high-band spectrum to roll out 5G services.
