positives

1. Indian government is investing heavily on infrastructure and which will be a huge boost the logistics division.

2. ECULine acquisition, though has been not performing up to the mark so far due to global recession, is expected to perform as expected.

3. Belief of global players like Blackstone group in the company.

4. Inorganic growth to improve the top-line of the company in the long run.

5. Dividend paying company

6. Low debt firm and high promoter holding.

concerns

1. Income tax liability of Rs.650mn and AllCargo Global has appealed against IT department.

2. Scouting for acquisition – NVOCC in china. Could prove to be a dampener in the short term

3. Global recessionary signals have still not died down completely and could impact the global business model of AllCargo.

valuations

AllCargoGlobal is trading close its 52 week low. Its trading at 13.9x PE CY10E. With a very low debt, high promoter holding and an acquisition that has started paying dividends, AllCargoGlobal is positioned to go higher in a big way. I believe it is ready to go to the next level of flexing its arms in the all the segments its involved in. I believe it can trade at a conservative PE of 16x with all the new revenues ready to flow in. I recommend a BUY on this scrip with a target of Rs.184 in another 6-12 months.
