HDFC Life Insurance (Q2FY21) - ADD (Target Rs620, Upside 9%)

Beats estimates, upsides priced in at FY22E P/EV of 3.9x, Retain ADD

The savings business has gathered momentum in Q2 FY21 and is likely to sustain given that the propensity to save is increasing amongst customers. Protection business will continue to witness strong demand on the back of lower penetration and current environment. HDFC Life with a balanced product mix and strong distribution channel is well poised to sustain its strong growth trajectory in premiums. Profitability is also expected to improve going ahead with favorable product mix and scale benefits. While we have raised our NBP growth estimates for FY21E from 10% to 12%, we have cut our VNB margin estimates by 100bps to 26%. At FY22E P/EV of 3.9x, we find the valuations fair. Retain ADD with a target price of Rs620 (Rs625 earlier).
