Nov 5 2025


HMFS Research


  • Following a sharp correction in the previous session, the KSE-100 Index extended its decline as persistent profit-taking and escalating geopolitical tensions continued to weigh on investor sentiment. The benchmark index plunged by 2,000 points intraday as investors remained cautious. Sustained selling pressure kept market momentum subdued, particularly across cyclical sectors, as participants awaited clarity on both geopolitical and macroeconomic fronts. The KSE-100 Index ultimately closed at 159,578, down by 1,704 points from the previous session’s close.
  • Trading activity remained moderate, mirroring the restrained tone of the previous day, with 333mn shares traded on the KSE-100 Index and 859mn shares exchanged in the broader market. Looking ahead, market direction is expected to remain sensitive to developments along the borders and evolving geopolitical narratives. However, optimism persists over Pakistan’s “Blue Economy” initiative, which continues to attract long-term investor interest with its projected USD 100bn potential by 2047. While intermittent bouts of profit-taking are likely to continue as part of normal market cycles, investors are advised to adopt a cautious approach, focusing on fundamentally robust stocks capable of withstanding short-term volatility.

Pakistan Automobiles: INDU to keep the throne in the auto arena – By AKD Research

Nov 4 2025


AKD Securities


  • INDU’s continues to benefit from strong volumetric growth, diversified product portfolio, extensive dealership network, higher localization, strong brand equity, high presence in rural areas, and superior cash-conversion cycle. Moreover, higher localization would shield against currency devaluation and provide edge over new entrants. We reiterate our ‘Buy’ stance on INDU, with Jun’26 target price of PkR3,681/sh with forward dividend yield of 9.3%, led by sustained earnings, higher-than-anticipated volumetric and margins.
  • Accelerating beyond industry growth: We anticipate sustained volumetric growth primarily supported by i) rising income of farmers (with 50% of sales coming from rural areas), ii) strong brand equity, iii) the company’s extensive dealership network, being the largest in the country with 57 3S dealerships, and iv) strong parent book to be leveraged in case of absence of customer advances. Underpinned by the company’s recent performance, where INDU recorded a 61%YoY rise in volumes during FY25, significantly outperforming the industry’s 43%YoY growth in Passenger cars and LCVs, even amid the entry of multiple new competitors into the market. Against this backdrop, we project volumes to grow at an annual rate of 14% through FY28, reaching 49k units. Subsequently, we expect the company’s revenue to grow at a CAGR of 15.3%, up to FY28. Where, we forecast overall market to expand to 222k units by FY28, driven by i) moderation in prices, ii) increasing model availability, iii) improving per capita income, and iv) lowest per-capita vehicle penetration in the region.
