Price Performance Summary Investment Thesis and Valuation

Investment Thesis

NMDC is India’s largest iron ore producer and has benefited

from stable international iron ore prices, translating into price

hikes even as volume growth was muted in FY25. NMDC’s

capacity enhancement plans and healthy balance sheet (net cash)

are also positives. However, NMDC’s iron ore prices should see

downward pressure, as we expect global iron ore prices to

remain weak into FY28-29. NMDC has also seen relatively

softer production trends while India’s iron ore imports are rising.

Capex is set to increase sharply in FY27-28, which could lower

YTD 1m 3m 12m net cash levels. While India’s domestic iron ore demand should

Abs 11.0% 4.6% 18.4% 31.2% remain strong in tandem with rising steel consumption, the risk/

Rel 21.6% 7.4% 24.1% 36.8%

reward looks unfavorable to us. We rate the stock UW.
