Target Price: Rs 391
During September quarter, Union Bank of India posted strong growth in net interest income of 78 per cent y-o-y while operating profit (excluding treasury gains) grew by 59 per cent y-o-y. Loan loss provisioning dampened the net profit declining 40 per cent y-o-y as the bank provided for one off slippages of Rs 419 crore on account of agri loan relief waiver scheme and Rs 300 crore on account of three accounts that turned non performing assets. The management has revised its deposit growth guidance by 200bps down to 20 per cent and RoAA to 1.17 per cent from 1.25 per cent earlier. However, it is confident of achieving 25 per cent credit growth in this financial year. The management is targeting 3.1 per cent NIM for 2010-11, a 39 bps y-o-y margin improvement during 2010-11. Analysts expect a better December quarter for the bank primarily on the back of strong volume growth, healthy fee income growth and lower loan loss provisioning which will boost its profitability.

Praj Industries
Reco Price: Rs 87,
Target Price: Rs 116
Praj Industries has entered into a strategic partnership with the US-based Qteros for accelerated development and commercialisation of process development package (PDP) for cellulose-based ethanol. The CBP platform based on the Q Microbe delivers an ethanol production process that is efficient, flexible and scalable . By choosing this technology partner, Praj has taken another step towards commercial exploitation of its work done so far on second-generation biofuels. However, there will not be immediate gains from this strategic tie-up and the company may have to face significant headwinds before the tie-up bears fruit. The stock is a buy as revival in demand from US and South East Asia, better demand in India and non-ethanol initiatives like waste water treatment and customised engineering will keep the company on a high growth path over the next 3-5 years. Maintain buy.
