However, PAT was above est. at INR6.7b led by deferred tax credit (effective tax negative) of INR1.8b and higher-than-expected forex gain of INR3.8b (est. INR2.2b; +109% QoQ, +58% YoY). 2QFY16 revenue stood at INR22.4b (inline; -44% YoY, -15% QoQ). Impact of lower than expected Rajasthan production (2% lower) and net realization (discount to Brent at 14.3% vs est of 11%) was neutralized by lower profit petroleum. Rajasthan 2QFY16 production averaged 168kbpd (-2% QoQ): Rajasthan production declined to average 168kbpd (-6% YoY, -1% QoQ), led by natural decline in core fields. The management maintained its flat production guidance for FY16; it had earlier indicated that the growth is contingent on oil price increase. Rajasthan realization at USD43.3/bbl implies 14.3% discount to Brent (v/s 9.9% in 1QFY16). The management expects production contribution from Mangala IOR/EOR from 4QFY16. Focusing on cost savings: Crude price fall has led to capital cost reduction by ~15% and increased operational efficiency, reduction of opex/boe to USD5.5/boe from USD 5.8/boe in FY15. Valuation and view DCF value of Cairn is INR192/sh (WACC: 12%; including cash per share of INR116/sh) at long-term Brent of USD65/bbl. However, the value of Cairn on the proposed merger with Vedanta at swap ratio of 1:1 (plus one INR10 RPS— redeemable preference share) works out to INR100. Cairn’s stock price performance has diverged from the proposed swap ratio (adjusted for RPS) Since the beginning of July, which implies an expectation of more favorable swap ratio for Cairn shareholders due to lower risk profile of balance sheet (high cash balance). Cairn is trading at a premium of INR50-70/sh rather than a premium of INR10/sh as per the proposed merger. Our target price implies an upside of 25%, but there remains a downside risk as current commodity prices are ~20% lower than our long term crude price assumptions. The stock trades at 13.4x FY17E EPS of INR11.5. Neutral. Investors are advised to refer through disclosures made at the end of the Research Report.

Rajasthan discount to Brent at ~14.3% The discount to Brent was highest ever and management indicated that it was

led by oversupply of heavy crudes. Lower cracks for bottom of barrel products led to higher demand of light crudes.

Rajasthan realization stood at ~USD43.3/bbl (-53% YoY, -22% QoQ), implying discount to Brent at ~14.3% (v/s 9.9% in 1QFY16).

Cairn continues to guide Rajasthan realization discount to Brent between 8-13%.

Other income stood at INR1.2b (v/s INR3.5b 2QFY15 and INR3.8b in 1QFY16) impacted by mark to market loss of USD20m on bonds and lower interest recognition led by timing difference.

Foreign exchange gain stood at INR3.8b (v/s gain of INR1.8b in 1QFY16 and gain of INR2.4b in 2QFY15).

Valuation and view Cairn India production growth potential and reserve upgrades is contingent on

the higher oil price from current levels (~USD50.5/bbl). We await clarity on any change in the reserve number.

Operational updates to watch out are (1) Rajasthan production trend, (2) Updates on reserves and (3) Update on other exploration blocks and (4) clarity on Rajasthan PSC extension.

DCF value of Cairn is INR192/sh (WACC: 12%; including cash per share of INR116/sh) at long-term Brent of USD65/bbl. However, the value of Cairn on the proposed merger with Vedanta at swap ratio of 1:1 (plus one INR10 RPS— redeemable preference share) works out to INR100.

Cairn’s stock price performance has diverged from the proposed swap ratio (adjusted for RPS) Since the beginning of July, which implies an expectation of more favorable swap ratio for Cairn shareholders due to lower risk profile of balance sheet (high cash balance). Cairn is trading at a premium of INR50-70/sh rather than a premium of INR10/sh as per the proposed merger.

Our target price implies an upside of 25%, but there remains a downside risk as current commodity prices are ~20% lower than our long term crude price assumptions.

The stock trades at 13.4x FY17E EPS of INR11.5. Neutral.
