FII Includes depository receipts The company has postponed the announcement of the much-anticipated

the current situation normalizes, including taking a call on the IEX stake sale.
Commercial operations at the Odisha grinding unit, Murli Industries, and the
Bihar grinding unit is guided would commence in 2QFY22, 2HFY22, and FY23,
respectively.
The company repaid gross debt of INR8.5b/INR22.2b in 4QFY21/FY21. Net
debt now stands at only INR1b, implying net debt/EBITDA of 0.04x.
Expect 16% volume CAGR over FY21–23E; reiterate Buy
With ~35% capacity growth over FY20–22E, DBL is well-placed to gain
market share. We estimate a strong 16% CAGR in volumes over FY21–23E.
As DBL becomes a net-cash company (including the value of its 20% stake in
IEX), growth plans and the capital allocation policy hold the key.
Valuations are attractive at 7.7x FY23E EV/EBITDA and EV/capacity of
USD91/t. Reiterate Buy, with TP of INR1,905/sh (at 10x FY23E EV/EBITDA).

INR4.50b. The balance of INR2.8b would be spent over the next 12–15 months.
For the ongoing East expansion, INR22.5b has been spent out of the budgeted
capex of INR32.0b. The balance capex of INR9.5b would largely be put toward
the Bihar grinding unit and be evenly spent over FY22 and FY23.

grinding unit are guided to commence in 2QFY22/2HFY22/FY23.

would be commissioned by Mar’22.
Deleveraging continues
The company repaid gross debt of INR8.5b/INR22.2b in 4QFY21/FY21 out of

last quarter. Net debt/EBITDA stands at 0.04x.

4QFY20/FY20. Volumes grew 7% YoY in FY21 (9% YoY including volumes sold in
the trial runs at new plants) despite the pandemic.
Slag prices surged in 4QFY21, while the consumption rate for petcoke was at
USD87/t (v/s USD83/t in 3QFY21 and USD66/t in 4QFY20).

15% of the fuel mix in FY22. Coal accounted for 40% of the fuel mix in FY21.

Other highlights
In 4QFY21, South witnessed stable pricing, while East saw strong recovery from
lows of 3QFY21. In the near term, supplies are expected to be impacted due to
logistic issues, which would support prices.
With the commencement of the commercial production of Line II (2.25mt) at
Bengal Cement Works, the installed grinding capacity has increased to 30.75mt.
As per an interim Supreme Court order, securities worth INR3.4b (MTM value
INR3.9b) have been credited back to DBL. Of this, the company has already sold
units worth INR2.8b, and the balance INR1.1b is shown under cash and cash
equivalents.
DBL has initiated the process of merging subsidiaries Kalyanpur Cements and
Murli Industries with itself. Calcom, however, would continue to operate as a
subsidiary.
The effective tax rate was 35% for FY21 and is expected to be 30% in FY22. The
cash tax rate, however, should be much lower at <10%.
