sales at INR659b (v/s est INR633b; +9% YoY). EBITDA at INR76.2b (v/s
est INR82.9b; +12% YoY). Adj. PAT at INR18.8b (v/s est INR24.3b; -60% YoY).
JLR
realization at GBP45k (v/s est GBP44k) grew 2.8% QoQ (flat YoY) driven by
favorable Fx. EBITDA margins at 12.3% (v/s est ~15.4%) were impacted due to
MTM impact on payables (~150bp impact), lower incentives in China (~100bp
impact) and partly due to launch expenses. However, adj PAT came in at
2018E
GBP265m (v/s est ~GBP255m) boosted by higher share of Cherry JV profits

and lower depreciation and Fx gains.

Valuation & view:
While we raise our EPS for FY17 by 8%, we cut FY18 by 5%. The
stock trades at 9.2x/7.3x FY17/18E consol EPS. We expect JLR’s operating
performance to start improving from 2QFY17, driven by continued volume
momentum and gradual benefit of weaker GBP. S/A business should benefit from
CV cycle recovery and favorable product lifecycle for PV business. Maintain
Buy.
