Risk factors
Inability to effectively manage growing DP network: If CDSL is unable to
identify or appoint DPs or the existing DPs do not expand their offerings or
reach, the distribution capabilities is affected. Also if the terms offered to
potential DPs by the competitor are more favorable, they may terminate the
services with CDSL.
Shift in consumer preferences away from investing and trading in securities to
other products and services: If a significant portion of existing service offerings
becomes outdated or loses market favour and inability to offer new services or
failure to increase the demand by investors, CDSL’s business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected.
Interruptions or malfunctions in the operation of IT systems: If the primary
vendor is unable to or declines to provide continuous support, CDSL will incur
disruptions and substantial costs in transiting to new service provider and will
affect the business. Also interruptions in IT systems and inability to make
alternative arrangements in a timely manner could cause losses due to
temporary loss of connectivity with DPs.
Valuation
At upper band of Rs149 CDSL will trade at 18x based on post‐issue EPS of Rs8.3
which we believe is fairly priced. We recommend investors to subscribe to the issue
with a long term investment objective.
