电信资费上调迫在眉睫:惠誉评级的Nitin Soni说

“Bharti处于非常有利的地位,可以从Vodafone-Idea手中接管部分市场份额,这也反映了强大的增长潜力,以及推广集团对该业务投入更多股权的信心。”

电信资费上调迫在眉睫:惠誉评级的Nitin Soni说

许多战略投资者对在中国投资持谨慎态度。在亚洲,印度是一个已经合并成两个大玩家的市场。他说,由于创业公司分享和技术快速采用的生态系统不断发展,战略投资者在印度投资是有意义的Nitin索尼,企业事务高级总监,惠誉国际评级(Fitch Ratings)


每个人都在想为什么会这样Bharti Airtel要进行如此大规模的融资吗?
我们将Bharti评级为BBB -,展望为负面,这确实反映了对印度主权的负面展望。我们相信28亿美元的配股发行将有助于去杠杆化资产负债表,并为公司的资本支出融资做好准备。最有可能的是,他们将把这笔钱用于5G频谱拍卖,拍卖可能会在未来12到18个月内进行。总的来说,Bharti在从vodafone idea手中接管部分市场份额方面处于非常有利的地位,这也反映了强大的增长潜力和推广集团对业务投入更多股权的信心。

面包和黄油业务发生了什么,因为大约三四个月前,Bharti是第一个垮台并选择性提高关税的公司。我们可以看到Bharti继续上升,而不是现任者迄今为止所做的。
是的,我们认为关税上调迫在眉睫。由于新冠肺炎疫情,以及Vodafone-Idea的疲软,关税上调被推迟。但我们现在认为,Vodafone-Idea将不得不提高关税,以在这个竞争激烈的市场中生存。Bharti将认为这是一个受欢迎的举动,我们将不得不等待,看看Jio是否也会跟进。显然,与其他地区市场相比,印度的关税相当低。每个用户每月150卢比,在我们看来,支付能力对客户来说不是主要问题。在接下来的6到12个月里,很容易就能涨到170-180卢比左右。

有未经证实的报道称,谷歌可能会对Bharti进行大量投资。你对这一举动有什么看法,因为我们在Jio的案例中有先例。当Facebook投资Jio时,许多其他公司也想从Jio中分一杯羹。如果谷歌的消息成真,这可能是巴蒂的重估时刻吗?乐动扑克
我们不能对任何猜测发表评论,但我想说的是,一些战略投资者肯定会将印度电信视为一个技术采用迅速上升的市场,而且由于新冠肺炎期间,这一市场已经加速。许多战略投资者对在中国投资持谨慎态度。在亚洲,印度是一个已经合并成两个大玩家的市场。由于创业公司分享的生态系统不断发展,技术的快速采用,战略投资者在印度投资是有意义的。但对于谁将投资Bharti的猜测,我们无法置评。

A lot of strategic investors are wary of investing in China. Within Asia, India is one of those markets which has consolidated into two large players and plus two. As a result of the evolving ecosystem of startup share and rapid technology adoption, it makes sense for strategic investors to invest in India, says Nitin Soni<\/a><\/strong>, Senior Director, Corporates, Fitch Ratings<\/a><\/strong>.<\/em>

The question on everyone\u2019s mind is why is
Bharti Airtel<\/a> going for such a sizable fund raise?
<\/strong>We rate Bharti BBB minus with a negative outlook and that really reflects the negative outlook on the India sovereign. The rights issue of $2.8 billion we believe will help deleverage the balance sheet and also prepare the company for capex funding. Most likely, they will use this money for the 5G spectrum auctions which will likely happen in the next 12 to 18 months. Overall, Bharti is in a very good position to take over some of the market share from Vodafone-Idea and it also reflects a strong growth potential and confidence of the promoter group to put in additional equity in the business.

What happens to the bread and butter business because about three to four months back, Bharti was the first one to bite the dust and take selective tariff hikes. We could see Bharti continuing to move upwards as opposed to what the incumbents have done so far.
<\/strong>Yes we believe that tariff hikes are imminent. There have been delays in tariff hikes because of the Covid period and also because of the weakness at Vodafone-Idea. But we now believe that Vodafone-Idea will have to hike tariffs to survive in this competitive market. Bharti will see that as a welcome move and we will have to wait and see whether Jio also follows through. Clearly tariffs are quite low in India compared to the other regional markets.. They are Rs 150 per month per user and affordability in our view is not a major issue for the customers. It can easily go to around Rs 170-180 in the next 6 to 12 months.
