Nokia Corporation is planning to set up a joint venture with HCL Infosystems to sell mobile value added services and entertainment content directly to consumers In India.

HCL Infosystems tied-up with Korean major Nautilus Hyosung to launch customized automated teller machine (ATM) solutions for India banks with a special emphasis on service-offering for rural areas. The company said that with just 38,000-plus ATMs in India serving a population of over 1.2-billion, there is going to be a huge demand for ATMs in India. The company said that initially, it will import ATMs as semi-knocked down (SKD) kits, then move to completely-knocked down (CKD) kits, and eventually as a part of indigenization start manufacturing the whole units in India. The initial assembly will be done at HCL’s plants in Pondicherry and Uttarakhand.
HCL Infosystems received an order from BSNL for a rollout of over 60,000 ERP licenses. The value of the order is Rs 2.40 billion. The contract includes configuration, business process reengineering, hardware, networking, operations & maintenance customization, training to BSNL employees and program management for seven years.
Valuations—
We expect company’s operating margins to remain under pressure, given intensely competitive nature of the industry, but healthy cash accruals and low debt repayment obligations will help the company to perform better in coming quarters. India is the third fastest growing Notebook-PC market in the ASEAN region with a CAGR of around 22 per cent. At current market price, Stock is trading at only 11.96 P/E multiple of its FY2010 estimated earnings. We recommend investors “buy”, “HCL Infosystems” for medium to long-term investment horizon.
