Buy Oriental Bank, target of Rs 224: Karvy

Karvy Stock Broking has maintained its buy rating on Oriental Bank of Commerce (OBC) with a target of Rs 224 in its October 27, 2008 research report. "In 2QFY09, Oriental Bank of Commerce reported NII growth of 31% (Y/Y) to Rs 5.2 billion compared to our estimates of Rs 4.2 billion; much higher than our estimates mainly due higher yield on advances and contained cost of deposits. We estimate that in FY2008-10, the bank's total business and bottomline would grow at 21% and 4.1 % CAGR respectively."

"We believe that the bank would report RoAA of 0.75-0.8% and RoAE of 13.2% in FY2009-10. Due to improvement in NII and fee income we increase our earning estimates for FY2009 and FY10 by 47% and 10% respectively and increase our target price by 24% to Rs 224. We reaffirm our BUY rating with a target price of Rs 224 at 0.86x adjusted book value FY2010," says Karvy Stock Broking's research report.
