Recommendation

Nuvoco Vista is the largest cement manufacturing company in East India in terms of total capacity. The company has established market-leading brands as Concreto and Duraguard. Government’s push for the “Housing for All” scheme and ‘Affordable Housing’ will be the major driver for cement demand in India. The company is utilizing 90% of its manufacturing capacity and has gained a market share of 22.3%. Nuvoco has a diversified product portfolio that includes: cement, ready-mix and modern building materials. On financials front, the company doesn’t seem lucrative. Direct revenues of the company have increased marginally by 2.89% in last two years. EBITDA margins of the company stood at 19.86% in FY21 while Shree Cement promises highest EBITDA margins at 32%. Return on Capital Employed of the company at 4.21% is very much low in comparison with its listed peers. Company has one of the highest high Debt/Equity ratio at 0.92x among the large players.
