Schaeffler India completed its merger with INA and Luk in Oct-2018. We believe that Schaeffer’s growth profile will continue to remain strong from structural and cyclical uptick in both its end user segments of automotive and industrial components. Also, we believe the merger will improve growth of the combined entity with higher exposure to fast‐growing auto industry, focus on new product development, cost synergies, localization benefits and higher Capex resulting in higher capacities to support the growth.At this juncture we are of the opinion that Gross margins in the merged entity will show some improvement QoQ as the management has indicated of price hikes to take on the raw material inflation. This along with a favourable sales mix, operating leverage and cost rationalisation should bode well for operating margins.Given the strong management pedigree, industry opportunity and benefits from merger we continue to have a favorable medium to long term view on the stock.
