Betting on India’s Semiconductor Theme
Semiconductors are THE hottest thing in the tech and finance world currently. We know that India wants to be the global hub of electronics manufacturing which requires a ton of investment. To ease this burden, the GOI announced a $10 billion subsidy plan to manufacture and supply Make In India chips.
There’s still a long road ahead but the good news is that we’re headed in the right direction. So what if I told you that you could profit from this mulit-year/decade opportunity by investing in the right company.
For the unaware, Rashi Peripherals is a leading pan-India distributor of IT hardware & software products. A few years back, the company forayed into embedded and semiconductor business. They even roped in Vivek Tyagi, ex-Western Digital, to lead this vertical. The company has partnered with over 25 global technology brands and recently opened their first state-of-the-art Embedded Lab in Bengaluru.
The company's ability to procure, design and test chips gives them an edge over peers in the semiconductor segment. Its huge investments in production and R&D have started to pay off with multiple orders from large automakers in India. PS - they also recently won a Rs 1,500 cr AI data center project from Yotta. The company is confident of achieving 50%+ growth in the semiconductor segment in the coming years albeit on a much smaller scale.
Besides this, the company’s traditional ICT business is also firing on all cylinders. Strong demand during the festive season + expansion into distribution for quick commerce brands have driven growth. The company’s inventory days and cash conversion cycle have also improved by 10%-15% in the first six months of FY25.
The company’s industry leadership, and strong balance sheet along with all the above factors make it a prime candidate for a re-rating, according to Monarch Capital. FYI - they have a 12-month target price of Rs 560 p/sh; +42% from current levels.
