Growth to remain strong, but valuation leaves little upside
INFOE reported an in-line operating performance in 2QFY22, with
standalone revenue growth of 37% YoY (estimate of +35%), the EBITDA
margin at 30.2% (estimate of 30.1%), and APAT growth of 98% YoY (estimate
of 101% YoY). 2Q billings stood at INR4.02b, +67% YoY and +28% QoQ.
Billing growth was led by Recruitment Solutions (73.9%), 99acres (45.9%),
and Shiksha (74.7%).
The Naukri business is expected to grow exceptionally well on account of
robust hiring demand across the board, driven by both IT and Non-IT. The
Real Estate market is seeing decade-high demand momentum, and the
revenue growth rate is expected to be strong.
The 2Q EBITDA margin fell 100bps QoQ to 30.2%. Margins have expanded
for the Recruitment business, led by operating leverage from strong growth.
However, margin tailwinds were offset by higher advertisement and
promotional expenses in 99acres.
If the buoyancy in the job market continues, there is further scope for
margin expansion in Recruitment. Within Real Estate, the demand rebound
has been strong, and the management would continue to invest in
marketing to establish leadership within the space.
With continuous pressure on tech salaries and growth improving in 99acres,
we expect the operating spend to increase going forward. However, we see
this as being more than compensated by strong revenue growth. We expect
standalone revenues / PAT to post a 31%/47% CAGR over FY21–23, driven
by strong acceleration in the Naukri business.
We continue to see a good long-term growth opportunity at INFOE’s
operating entities, with margin improvement, as scale benefits come over
the next few years. However, we believe the valuation continues to fairly
price in the growth outlook.
We value its operating entities using the DCF valuation, with WACC of 11%
and a terminal growth rate of 6%. Our SoTP-based valuation indicates Target
Price of INR6,150 per share. Maintain
Neutral.

The EBITDA margin was stable at 30.2% (-100bps QoQ), in line with our estimate
of 30.1%.
The margin was impacted by higher advertisement and promotional expenses
(320bp QoQ impact on margin), offset by better operating leverage.
Adj PAT was INR1.02b (v/s est. of 1.03b), +98% YoY and flat QoQ, driven by
strong YoY growth in EBITDA.
Reported PAT came in at INR83.56b. RPAT was aided by 1) gains on the Zomato
stake sale (INR3.6b) and 2) the fair valuation of the Zomato Investment
(INR89.4b) – partially offset by higher tax expense and provisions on start-up
investment.
Highlights from management commentary
Recruitment:
It saw a sharp growth rebound, which was also seen in a 60% YoY
increase in the Jobspeak index. Naukri’s India Enterprise/ Corporate business is
up 60% v/s pre-COVID levels and 82% YoY.
If the strength in the market continues, Info Edge may see margins expand from
current levels. However, if the market stabilizes, margins will likely stabilize or
inch down. The company does not target margins.
Real Estate:
The industry is seeing strong revival, visible in the growth in the
loan books of banks. Low prices and higher personal incomes are driving strong
demand, which is at decade highs. Renewal rates have bounced back to pre-
COVID levels.
The company expects the growth momentum to continue, driven by the
Residential Homes segment. While the market would grow at a high rate, the
competitive intensity is also high. The management would continue to invest in
marketing expenses within 99acres to establish its leadership.
The Talent market is hot, and if it continues to be strong, the company may have
a structurally higher wage bill.
The management stated that if Zomato had been a private company, Info Edge
would have advised it to focus on the core business rather than adjacent
verticals. However, this would have been at Zomato’s discretion.
Valuation and view
FY22 should see a strong rebound in revenue growth after 14% decline in FY21.
Billing is also expected to see a sharp pickup, which should help provide
operating leverage support to margins. With the expectation of additional jobs
coming in (on pent-up demand) and a rebound in real estate demand, we expect
a 31% revenue CAGR over FY21–23E.
With the management investing prudently, some of INFOE’s current
investments should be scaled up over the medium-to-long term, further
contributing to the group’s valuation.
We have individually valued INFOE’s group entities using the DCF-based
valuation (WACC: 11%; terminal growth rate: 6%). Our SoTP-based Target Price
stands at INR6,150/share.

Daily listings on platforms in up 29% QoQ.
Renewal rates have bounced back to pre-covid levels.
Few customers are focusing on upgrades and high value services which are
offered on 99 Acres platform.
The company expects the growth momentum to continue, driven by the

Methodology description
We have taken an assumption of 18% revenue
CAGR and 20% EBIT CAGR for FY21-34. Our
WACC and Terminal growth estimates stands
at 11% and 6% respectively.
We forecast 8% CAGR in total absorption for
the next 15 years, coupled with 4% CAGR in
weighted average price, which gives 12%
CAGR for the sector. Based on assumptions of
long term average of 7% market share of
99acres in real estate marketing expenditure,
we estimate 19% CAGR in revenue for FY20-
34. Our WACC and Terminal growth estimates
stands at 11% and 6% respectively.
Factoring in current market valuation

Valuation and view
Direct, high-quality play on exploding e-commerce opportunity
India’s e-commerce industry is expected to grow to USD100b by CY25 from the
current size of USD30b. As per Google, the Classifieds segment is expected to
grow at 18% CAGR, with Jobs, Real Estate, and Matrimony constituting two-
thirds of the market.
As GDP growth revives in India, it would directly benefit INFOE’s Recruitment
segment, which has had a 7–8pp historical multiplier effect for every 1pp uptick
in GDP growth. Naukri.com’s traffic share is almost 70%.
Reducing industry burn vindicates prudent investment strategy
The scenario in venture capital funding appears to have changed over the last
few months, with companies making a pivot toward monetization and
profitability. This would imply that the worst in terms of month-on-month burn
is behind.
16 November 2021
5
 Motilal Oswal Financial Services
Info Edge
This plays into INFOE’s strategy of staying put to protect its market leadership in
multiple franchises such as Zomato. It could now look forward to deriving the
financial rewards from its investments sooner rather than later.
Revival in GDP growth to help its flagship Recruitment segment
Naukri.com should directly and disproportionately benefit from the uptick in
GDP growth. This should be compounded by a pickup in demand for IT
resources. A V-shaped recovery in billings is likely on the assumption that GDP
would revive back in FY22 (given that hiring persists in the IT sector).
Disciplined management action drives confidence
Backing strong teams:
Despite acquiring significant stake in investee companies,
the approach has been to back its teams and get involved as and when its
guidance is sought.
Prioritizing:
INFOE has been quick to write-off its investments where either
scale visibility has dwindled and/or the company’s focus has changed (INR2.2b
to date).
Valuation and view
FY22 should see a strong rebound in revenue growth after 14% decline in FY21.
Billing is also expected to see a sharp pickup, which should help provide
operating leverage support to margins. With the expectation of additional jobs
coming in (on pent-up demand) and a rebound in real estate demand, we expect
a 31% revenue CAGR over FY21-23E.
With the management investing prudently, some of INFOE's current
investments should be scaled up over the medium-to-long term, further
contributing to the group's valuation.
We have individually valued INFOE's group entities using the DCF-based
valuation (WACC: 11%; terminal growth rate: 6%). Our SoTP-based Target Price
stands at INR6,150/share.
