Valuation & Recommendation:

Usually, MSW projects are awarded following a competitive bidding procedure and fulfillment of the technical and financial pre-qualification requirements prescribed. The MSWM market has approximately 25 participants providing different services. Many businesses with infrastructure and environmental services are present in this sector. The award of contracts also depends on the grants and the budget given to their municipalities by the States.

Although potential growth may come from expanding into more geographies and projects in Waste To Energy, the contract wins have been unstable in the past. While current contracts with an average term of 7-10 years provide some comfort in the future revenues, given the uncertainty of contract wins in the past and increasing competitive strength, we will remain cautious.
