Ceinsys Tech Ltd (CEINSYS) – DCF Valuation (as of 12 March 2026)Using the two-stage Discounted Cash Flow (FCFF) model, I have calculated the intrinsic fair value based on the latest consolidated financials from Screener.in, company earnings releases, and the Q3 FY26 earnings call transcript (order book ₹999 Cr as of Dec 2025, management hint of FY26 revenue ~₹700 Cr+).Key Inputs (Latest Available):
- TTM Revenue: ₹632 Cr | FY25: ₹418 Cr
- 9M FY26 Revenue: ₹490 Cr | PAT: ₹96 Cr
- Order book: ₹999 Cr (strong 1.5x+ TTM sales visibility)
- EBITDA margin (recent): 21–23.5%
- Net debt: ~₹30 Cr (conservative; borrowings ₹75 Cr minus estimated cash)
- Shares outstanding: 17.85 million (1.785 Cr shares from ₹18 Cr equity capital at ₹10 face value)
- Beta: ~0.57 (low volatility)
My Base-Case Assumptions (Balanced & Realistic):
- FY26E Revenue: ₹680 Cr (9M run-rate + Q4 momentum)
- 5-year explicit growth (FY27–FY31): 35% → 30% → 25% → 20% → 15% (tapered; supported by order book, geospatial infra boom at 20%+ national CAGR, and execution track record)
- EBITDA margin: 22% (FY26–28) → 23–23.5% (improving scale & mix)
- Depreciation: 2% of revenue
- Capex: 3.5% of revenue (low; management confirmed no major tech capex planned beyond opex for AI/ML)
- Δ Working Capital: 12% of incremental revenue (conservative allowance for 221 debtor days; assumes gradual normalisation)
- Tax rate: 25%
- WACC: 10.8% (Rf 6.8% + beta 0.57 × 7% ERP; debt weight negligible)
- Terminal growth: 4% (long-term India GDP/infra sustainable rate)
- Explicit period: FY26–FY30; Terminal Value at end-FY30 using perpetuity formula on FY31 FCFF
Projected Financials & FCFF (₹ Cr):
- Terminal Value (end-FY30): ₹4,112 Cr
- Enterprise Value: ₹2,962 Cr
- Equity Value: ₹2,932 Cr (after net debt)
- Fair Value per Share: ₹1,643
Upside from Current Price (₹1,000–1,037 range): 58–64% (base case).Sensitivity Analysis (Fair Value per Share):
- Conservative (WACC 11.5%, growth -5% pts, ΔWC 15%, EBITDA 21%): ₹1,250–1,320
- Base (as above): ₹1,643
- Optimistic (WACC 10.0%, growth +5% pts, ΔWC 8%, EBITDA 24%): ₹1,950–2,100
- Alternative (Exit multiple 22x FY30 EBITDA instead of perpetuity): ~₹1,780–1,850 (aligns with some analyst models)
Comparison with Other Methods (for cross-check):
- Current TTM P/E: 15.4x → Forward FY27E P/E ~10–11x (very attractive vs. IT/geospatial peers 20–25x)
- Historical median intrinsic models: ~₹1,246
- Overall DCF range: ₹1,300–1,850 (central tendency ~₹1,550–1,650)
Why the Model is Robust:
- Order book provides high visibility for first 2–3 years.
- Margin expansion already visible (OPM 23% in Q3 FY26).
- Low capex intensity (services + software resale model).
- Low debt and improving ROCE (26.6%) support clean FCFF ramp-up.
- Sector tailwinds (Smart Cities, LiDAR mandates, Gati Shakti) justify 25%+ near-term growth before tapering.
