Power Finance Corp. Q3 Review: Motilal Oswal Reiterates 'Buy' On The Stock, Lowers Target Price — Here's Why

NDTV Profit’s special research section collates quality and in-depth equity and economy research reports from across India’s top brokerages, asset managers and research agencies. These reports offer NDTV Profit’s subscribers an opportunity to expand their understanding of companies, sectors and the economy.

Motilal Oswal Report

Power Finance Corporation Ltd. (standalone) trades at 0.8x FY27E P/BV and four times FY27 P/E, and we believe that the risk-reward is attractive considering decent visibility on loan growth, earnings growth, stressed asset resolutions, and healthy return ratios.

We reiterate our Buy rating with an SoTP (Sep’26E)-based target price of Rs 475 (based on 1x target multiple for the PFC standalone business and Rs 184/ share for PFC’s stake in REC after a hold-co discount of 20%).

Key risks:

1. rise in exposure to private infrastructure projects as these loans fall outside PFC’s core expertise of lending to power projects;

2. increase in exposure to power projects without power purchase agreements,

3. compression in spreads and margins due to aggressive competitive landscape, and

4. a slowdown in the offtake of renewable energy projects, driven by weak power demand.
