Executive Summary
The Project titled Equity Research on IT companies involves the study of IT industry of India using the fundamental analysis and to study the stocks of two major IT companies i.e Tata Consultancy Services Ltd & Infosys Technology Ltd. In the initial part of the study we discuss the current scenario of IT industry with regard to various parameters like the sources of revenues, the macro economic factors affecting the business of IT industry, the required man power, etc. Also we try to study the future outlook of the industry with regard to its growth rate and global economic factors affecting that may affect the industry. In the second part we study the company profiles of Infosys and TCS. Here we take into consideration every aspect of company i.e the journey of the company right from its inception, its business model, the products and services offered by them, their achievements, and milestones. We also try the financial data like their EPS, Revenues, Market capitalization, etc. of both the companies. Also the ratio analysis of both the companies has been done in order to get the idea of the actual financial position of these companies. In the comparative analysis we try to compare the stocks of both the market companies with respect to BSE sensex. Through these comparison we can analyze how the stock prices of both the companies have performed from last five years i.e from 2007-2011. In the last part we try evaluate estimated intrinsic value of both the companies using the Earning Multiplier Approach of valuation of stocks. Based on these intrinsic values the suggestions and conclusions for the investment in these stocks has been made.
IT-hardware &IT-ES domains are excluded from the ambit of this research
The fundamental analysis is based on the secondary data collected only during period of 20072011
Industry Analysis
OVERVIEW OF STOCK MARKET
Right from the beginning the stock broking industry has undergone a drastic change. Gone are the days when the individuals were acting as a stock broker & just were serving a limited region. The industry structure has changed so much as the corporate giants entered in the stock broking industry.
Broking Insights The Indian broking industry is one of the oldest trading industries that have been around even before the establishment of the BSE in 1875. Despite passing through a number of changes in the post liberalizations period, the industry has found its way towards sustainable growth. With the purpose of gaining a deeper understanding about the role of the Indian stock broking industry in the countrys economy, here are some of the Industry insights gleaned from analysis of data received through primary research.
In tune with the global stock markets that began to recover from the second half of 2003; Indian stock markets too witnessed rapid growth. Indias two leading indices, the most popular BSE Sensex, and the one most used by the markets the National Stock Exchanges S&P CNX Nifty rose to record levels. Both primary and secondary market activity experienced sharp surge. Much progress was made in further strengthening and streamlining risk management, market regulation and supervision. A few aspects of the major developments in the Indias stock markets are described below. Indian securities market is fairly large as compared to several other emerging markets. There are 22 stock exchanges in the country, though the entire liquidity is shared between the countries two national level exchanges namely, the National Stock Exchange of India and the Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd. The regional stock exchanges are in pursuit of business models that make them viable and vibrant. Meanwhile, these exchanges have become members of the national level exchanges through formation of subsidiaries whose business is showing continuous growth and progress.
The number of brokers in various stock exchanges rose from 6,711 in 1994-95 to 9772 in FY10. The number of brokers in all the exchanges together peaked to 10,213 in the year FY01 but gradually declined thereafter when the regional stock exchanges began to lose business in the light of wide ranging market structure reforms introduced since then. In FY01, when the markets were in upswing, several regional stock exchanges were generating business owing to the availability of deferral products, such Badla and different settlement calendars prevailing at that time in these exchanges. For instance in FY01, the Delhi Stock Exchange registered cash market turnover of Rs 838.71 Bn; Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange, Rs 247.47 Bn, Ludhiana Stock Exchange Rs 97.32 Bn, Pune Stock Exchange Rs 61.71 Bn as against Rs 13,395.11 Bn of the turnover at the National Stock Exchange and Rs 10,000.32 Bn turnover at the Bombay Stock Exchange. With the abolition of the deferral products and introduction of uniform T+2 settlement cycle, the liquidity in these exchanges flowed to the national level system consisting of NSE and BSE.

IT Industry Analysis
The Indian information technology (IT) industry has played a key role in putting India on the global map, the IT industry has grown fast over the last 15 years. India is a preferred destination for companies looking to offshore their IT and back-office functions. It also retains its low-cost advantage and is a financially attractive location when viewed in combination with the business environment it offers and the availability of skilled people. The Indian IT industry has witnessed a strong recovery over last few quarters after facing a bleak outlook following the onset of global economic slowdown in the last quarter of 2008. The industry faced a difficult year but started moving towards recovery by second half of the last fiscal and operating atmosphere for the industry has continuously improved since then. The recovery which started with pent up demand and cost cutting initiatives by large MNCs is now progressing as major companies across the world start hiking IT budgets gradually. The performance of industry leaders has been particularly on the upside of estimates and while recovery is slower in the mid-cap space, here too things are better on a year-on-year basis.No twithstanding the fact that IT majors have historically generated better part of their revenue from exports, the industry is set to renew its focus on opportunities at home. Indias domestic market has become a force to reckon with and the existing IT infrastructure is evolving in terms of both technology and penetration. In fact, in the developed economies, the government is a major buyer of IT. Even in emerging nations, governments are becoming major client for IT companies. China has for long had a software industry larger than India despite the fact that it compares nowhere with Indias IT exports. This is because its IT industry is powered mainly by domestic demand that is far larger than that of India. From a long term point or view, the Indian IT industry is slowly decreasing its dependence on the US economy. While it is looking at other opportunities in Europe and Japan, the next big driver for the industry in the long run will come from the domestic demand. Indian economy is close to reaching the threshold level where demand for the IT services takes-off in a big way and over the next few years the inflexion point will be reached which provides strong growth visibility in the longer run.
World-wide spending on technology and related products and services is estimated to have crossed US$ 1.6 trillion in 2010, a growth of 4.0% over 2009, with growth driven by emerging verticals and
21
emerging geographies in addition to USA. Global IT services spend increased from US$ 566 billion in 2009 to US$ 574 billion in 2010. The geographic revenues break-up for IT services was as follows: - Americas share 43.0% in 2010 (42.8% in 2009) - Europe Middle-East and Africa revenues 39.7% in 2010 (40.2% in 2009) - Asia-Pacific revenues 17.3% in 2010 (17.0% in 2009)
Global Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) services spend has increased from US$ 152 billion in 2009 to US$ 158 billion in 2010. The geographic revenues break-up for BPO spend was as follows: - Americas share at 55.3% in 2010 (55.8% in 2009) - Europe Middle-East and Africa revenues 25.9% in 2010 (26.0% in 2009) - Asia-Pacific revenues 18.8% in 2010 (18.2% in 2009)
Trends in global sourcing remained positive and showed a growth rate of 10.4% in 2010 over 2009 and the global sourcing market size was in the range of US$ 102 to 106 billion in 2010. IT sourcing grew at 10.3% to a market size of US$ 62 to 64 billion and BPO sourcing grew at 10.6% to a market size of US$ 40 to 42 billion. There is enough potential for growth. Estimate of the addressable global sourcing market is in the range of US$ 500 billion (US$ 280 billion for IT services and US$ 220 billion for BPO services). (Source: NASSCOM Strategic Review 2008 - 2011) One of the major beneficiary countries of the global sourcing trend continues to be India whose expertise and capability in the area of Information Technology (IT) and Information Technology Enabled Services (ITES) has made it a leading destination for global corporations looking for technology partners.
Growth forecasts for IT Services Industry IT services spend is expected to increase from US$ 566 billion in 2009 to US$ 684 billion by 2014 at a CAGR2 of 3.9%. US$ 225 billion in 2009 to US$ 239 billion in 2014 at a CAGR of 1.1%. US$ 31.1 billion in 2009 to US$ 42.8 billion in 2014 at a CAGR of 6.6%. BPO spend is expected to increase from US$ 152.1 billion in 2009 to US$ 201.5 billion in 2014 at a CAGR of 5.8%.
22
IT spend forecasts by global technology analyst firms like Gartner, Forrester, IDC and others indicate a growing market for IT and ITES for industry verticals, service offerings and geographies of interest to the Company and excellent prospects for growth in the future

INFOSYS TECHNOLOGIES
COMPANY PROFILE Introduction Infosys Technologies was set up in 1981 by seven people with $250. Today it is one of India's largest IT companies with 130,820 employees covering 88 nationalities. Headquartered in state of the art facilities in Bangalore, it has offices in 32 countries and development centres in India, China, Australia, the UK, Canada and Japan. Recent times have been characterized by remarkable growth: a frequently quoted statistic, well worth mentioning, is that it took 23 years for Infosys to reach its first $1bn in revenues and only 23 months to hit $2bn. It expects sales of more than $4billion in 2011. Infosys was the first company to successfully provide computing services from India to clients around the world, often at much lower cost. As the pioneer in IT outsourcing, it has paved the way for what has now become a $41bn industry. Today, the company handles a wide range of IT contracts for many of Europe and Americas leading corporations from software development to system maintenance for multiple clients. It also provides back office support to many more, extending from order processing and customer support call centres through to high-end actuarial analysis for the insurance industry
Infosys employs an ever-expanding army of low-cost but highly educated Indian engineers and attracts the best of the best by offering relatively high salaries and significant perks. It is creative in the way it sources talent, drawing on the top graduates from smaller colleges. Many employees have less than 3 years experience which, given their ability and intellectual rigour, allows the company to provide its clients with a very cost-effective, yet efficient service Some have argued that Infosys should focus on greater intellectual property creation and move beyond a conventional service model where payment is largely made for time and material inputs. They see an opportunity to move to payment for outputs, the basis of gains that their IT services can deliver. Perhaps they will: it is noticeable that Infosyss Software Engineering and Technology Labs which spearhead the companys commitment to innovation and Intellectual Property development, generated over 80
24
invention disclosures and filed over 20 patents in 2007. More significantly in terms of its value chain, Infosys is moving into higher value-adding services such as establishing an R&D partnership to jointly create next-generation solutions for the power sector with ALSTOM, a global leader in power generation and rail transport infrastructure. Its canny ability to see change and adapt to it means that Infosys is keeping ahead of the game. As it has quickly migrated from support service to value-creating software development and outsourced R&D, it has consistently been able to compete with the likes of Accenture and IBM and pre-empt new developments. For example, it has opened offices in China and Mexico to counter the wage inflation and skills shortage it is facing in India and is mitigating the possible threat of competition from other developing countries. It is also now considering acquisition and, as several other Indian firms in recent years have done, there have been rumOurs that it will acquire a large European firm to further underpin its future global growth ambitions.

VALUATION
The Earning Multiplier Approach
In the Earning Multiplier the Goal is to find out the value anchor which is nothing but the intrinsic value of the share in appropriate terms. Step 1 We need to find the estimated figures for the next year. This can be done by calculating the CAGR of all the required parameters. Once the CAGR is calculated then this represents an appropriate growth figure which can give us the projected figures. Going in the normal flow the PAT can be calculated. Once the PAT is figured out we can subtract preference dividend from it and divide it by the number of outstanding shares to calculate the estimated EPS. Step 2 We need to calculate the P/E ratio for the estimated year. As a result we use the formula of Dividend payout ratio divided by the difference of required return on equity and the Expected growth rate in dividend. Price earning ratio = (Dividend payout ratio) (Required return on equity Expected growth rate in dividend) d. The Dividend Payout Ratio can be calculated by dividing the dividend / share by the earning /share. e. Required return on equity = Risk Free Return + ( Beta of equity x Expected Market Risk Premium) f. Expected Growth Rate in dividend= Retention Ratio x Return on equity g. Step 3 We have both the Projected EPS and the Appropriate P/E. Multiplying them will give us the Value Anchor which is the intrinsic value of the share.

The Market return has been calculated by taking into consideration the average return of all the listed stocks on sensex and turns out be around 18.45%. The Value Anchor turns out be around 1239.73 compared with the market price as of today 1182.5 as a result we can conclude that this share is highly undervalued. I recommend a strong buy call since its value anchor is higher than the current market price & hence investor can expect returns on the investment. All the above figures have been reconfirmed with other professional research report and are more or less the same. Hence we conclude that all these figures are true to the date.

The Value Anchor of Infosys turns out be around 2116.59 but the market price as of today is around 3236.75 as a result we can conclude that this share is highly overvalued. Its nothing but the demand and the market forces that have taken the share to so much heights. I recommend a strong sell call since its value is highly hyped and the stock price can a take a beating anytime in the near future. . All the above figures have been reconfirmed with other professional research report and are more or less the same. Hence we conclude that these figures are true to the date.

Conclusion
Infosys and TCS are the blue chips companies of Indian IT industry. They are having the most market capitalization in BSE INFOTECH Index. The intrinsic value of Infosys is lower than its current market price. Hence we can conclude that it is overvalued and hence would recommend to sell the Infosys stocks in the long run. While on the other hand the intrinsic value of TCS is higher than its current market price(CMR). But the the difference between the intrinsic value and the CMR of TCS is very less i.e around 50. Hence we would recommend the investors, in the short to buy the stocks of TCS but in the long run not to purchase the stocks of TCS.
