The recent spike in COVID-19 cases in India weighs heavily on the Aviation sector,
with flyers confidence tanking, leading to further delays in the recovery of
demand. Daily passenger demand dropped by ~13% to ~246,600 passengers in the
last week of Mar’21 (v/s the last week of Feb’21 – when the peak was recorded),
resulting in no MoM improvement in traffic (still down ~37% to pre-COVID levels).
In Apr’21, demand further fell by ~5% from the last week’s average of Mar’21 to
~233,000 passengers per day.
As per our airfare tracker, yields in Mar’21 increased by 2-5% MoM, but down 13-
14% QoQ in 4QFY21. This is despite the upward revisions in the floor of airfare
bands in Feb’21 by 10% and again in Mar’21 by 5%.
The aforementioned two anomalies are in line with our Jan’21 report (Deep-dive
analysis – airfares and passenger demand)
and could be answered with rapid
vaccination in the country, reviving confidence and thus demand. A spike in crude
oil prices during 4QFY21 has further added to the negative sentiment.
Currently, around one-third of total states in India have imposed further
lockdowns/restrictions
but operations in the sector have not been curbed. We
keep our assumptions unchanged for now, with estimates of traffic recovering to
pre-COVID levels by end of 3QFY22E. We reiterate our neutral stance on INDIGO –
with the possibility of further delays in the recovery to pre-COVID levels.

Yields to improve as more regional airports are connected
As per the recently concluded winter CY20-21 schedule (exhibit 6),
North
and East India is leading the recovery (back to 58-62% of pre-COVID levels),
while West and South lag behind (47-52% of pre-COVID levels). The share
of metro-to-metro routes has fallen to 20% (from 23% last year),
while the
share of connectivity to non-metro routes has increased (exhibit 5).
As highlighted in Exhibit 3-4, the percentage mix of flights and passengers
has moved away from dominant Western and Southern region to the North
and Eastern region of India.
Share of aircraft movement in the Western and
Southern region decreased to ~53% in FY21 v/s ~57% in FY20, while
passenger share fell to ~50% from ~56% respectively.

Airfares in India peaked at the end of Oct’20 (up ~50% v/s Jan’20), led by
imposition of airfare bands by MoCA as airline operations restarted after the
lifting of COVID-related lockdown norms. Since then, fares have failed to
sustain (as soon as passenger demand touched ~50% YoY in Nov’20).
That
said, airlines have formulated a plan to cope with falling yields and have
expanded their connectivity to Tier II, III and RCS routes in last 3 months.
INDIGO to start 22 new flights (Feb) 14 new flights under RCS (Mar)
SJET to launch 21 new routes (Jan) 24 new domestic routes (Feb)
In Jan’21, INDIGO had announced to set up seven new regional bases (at
Leh, Darbhanga, Kurnool, Agra, Bareily, Durgapur, and Rajkot).
These new
flights would aid better yields for the airline as it further diversifies the route
mix away from metro-to-metro routes (where the fares have already
peaked). Factoring in the aforementioned, our INDIGO model builds in yields
of INR3.9 for FY22-23E (at ~5% premium to FY16-20 average).

For the summer schedule of CY21, the ministry has connected four new regional
airports (Bareily, Bilaspur, Kurnool and Rupasai). In the last week, it inaugurated
22 new routes under the RCS.
That said, only ~40% of the total RCS routes
awarded (in the last four years) has commenced operations, providing a huge
opportunity for the airlines.

Vaccines to boost travelers’ confidence around the globe
Governments around the globe are pacing their vaccination drive to revive the
economy from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite various debates
around the efficacy of the vaccines, it has helped curb a patient’s admission to
the hospital and prevented death. The resultant increase in confidence is likely
to boost the economy, with the opening up of institutions, and travel demand.
To put this into perspective, around three months after the start of vaccinations
in the US (~32% of the US population has received at least one vaccine dose):
demand for domestic travel improved to 66% of pre-COVID levels (from 39% in
Jan’21). Demand for international travel is gradually improving (at 32% of pre-
COVID levels v/s 16% in Jan’21).
For now, tickets are mostly being sold to
leisure destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Recovery of international traffic is still contingent on the situation in other
countries.
For India (refer Exhibit 9), only 16% of international inbound and
outbound passengers are from the US and Europe, while the majority are from
developing nations, where achieving 70% vaccination may take some more
time than developed nations, further delaying demand recovery in India
(refer
exhibit 15 – for estimated shortage in global production of vaccines for CY21).
The US recently allowed those who are fully vaccinated to travel freely
without tests and quarantine into the country.
It is looking to vaccinate ~70%
of its population as early as May-Jun’21. The same for Europe stands at Jul-
Aug’21. Even in India, ~5% of the population has been vaccinated, although the
high population may be a huge constraint in reaching the target.

Maintain neutral stance on INDIGO
We believe (in line with the opinion of various industry experts/airlines) the
permanent enforcement of fare bands could be a huge dampener for the
Aviation industry. India has a huge order book of over 500 planes coming in over
the next 3-4 years. With domestic air travel demand being extremely elastic to
rail journeys, Airlines will have to compete on fares to fill their seats.
Crude oil prices have seen a sharp increase to ~USD65/bbl. However, we don’t
expect prices to sustain above USD60/bbl as: a) production cuts from OPEC+
normalizes further (from ~8mnbopd currently), and b) oil production from US
increases (which is still down 1.8mnbopd YoY in Jan’21).
For every USD5/bbl
change in crude oil prices, INDIGO’s EPS changes by ~20%.
INDIGO’s plan to replace older CEO aircraft with NEO aircraft by Dec’22 would
result in fuel savings of ~15% and margin expansion. It has already replaced 12
CEO aircrafts and added 26 NEO aircrafts in 9MFY21, reducing the mix of CEO
aircrafts in its total fleet to ~39% v/s ~47% at the end of FY20.
Market share for INDIGO has declined to ~54% in Feb’21 from 60% in Jun-
Aug’20 (owing to slow start of operations by other players). We forecast its
market share to normalize at pre-COVID levels of 49-50% going forward as SJET
boosts operations (recently,
SJET signed a deal for SLB of 50 new aircrafts),
likely
privatization of Air India, and resumption in Jet airways’ operations.
INDIGO’s cash burn reduced to INR150m in 3QFY21 with improvement in
operational parameters (from ~INR300m in 1QFY21 amid the closure of airline
operations).
At the end of the quarter, INDIGO had total cash of INR183.7b (free
cash of INR74.5b; restricted cash of INR109.2b). We value INDIGO at 16x FY23
EPS of INR95 to arrive at a target price of INR1,530. Maintain Neutral.
