More upside in Tata Power: Mehraboon J Irani

Market expert Mehraboon J Irani is bullish on Tata Power. He is of the view that despite the recent ramp-up, there is potential for more upside in the stock. He believes Tata Power has surprised the most optimist of market participants.

"We need to understand and accept that maybe at least 50 percent below the current price, everybody was gung-ho on it and was saying that it is a great bet... Not many reasons were being spelled out... There are quite a few multiple levers as far as earnings are concerned," he says.

Irani feels that the likely monetisation of the renewable energy business should definitely unlock value for Tata Power and deleverage its balance sheet. "There is potential tariff negotiation going on and the merger of coastal Gujarat Power with Tata Power should help the company reduce its tax outgo," he adds.

HDFC-HDFC Bank merger has synergies, some risks from bank's perspective: Amit Gupta

Amit Gupta, VP and Fund Manager-PMS at ICICI Securities, is of the view that the proposed merger between HDFC and HDFC Bank has synergies but there are some risks from the bank's perspective.

“When HDFC will merge will HDFC Bank, in the Nifty alone, you will have a very good weight of HDFC Bank. If you look at it from a fund manager's perspective, are you going to give 10-11 percent weight to a single stock? HDFC has benefit of low cost of deposit of HDFC Bank but from HDFC Bank's perspective, its NIM was close to 4.2 percent and post-merger, it will come down to 3.8 percent. HDFC Bank's CASA is around 47 percent, which will come down to 35-36 percent," he says.
