Valuation and View
Bosch is in a sweet spot given its leadership position, technology focus and unique positioning in the Indian auto industry. We expect revenue and PAT to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% and 11.6% over FY15-FY18E. Further, we rate the stock as ‘BUY’ assigning a forward P/E of 36.5x (given acceleration in growth trajectory due to advanced emission norms) arriving at a target price of Rs. 22,083 which implies potential upside of ~10% for next 12 months.
