Sidhartha Bhushan Khurana, MD, STUDDS Accessories Ltd. Exclusive on Helmets Outlook in India

Outlook

The number of two wheelers in India has been on rise but so has been the number of road accidents.

The government has mandated the use of helmets for two-wheeler riders.

 

Investment Rationale:

Two-wheeler helmet market growth is directly linked to bike sales. There is also a very large replacement market as the consumer changes helmet after 3 to 5 years.  

There is a shift in customers preference from local unbranded helmet manufacturers to organised branded players due to high quality and durability and advanced safety features.  Government has taken key initiatives for Helmet industry of India including mandatory use of Helmets. In India, increasing number of two-wheeler accidents have compelled the government to make use of helmets compulsory by both rider and pillion. Also mandatory approvals  are required to make helmets safer for the riders and reduce the number of road fatalities, the government has planned to make it compulsory to have BIS certification. Currently, 50% of helmets used by riders are without ISI marks.

In addition, with implementation of Goods and Service Tax (GST) and increasing safety benchmarks set for helmets, the company will further strengthen its market share and address the demand opportunity.

Studds Accessories manufactures industrial helmets and now has plans to expand into the new market of bicycle helmets.  These products would be destined for domestic and global market. Bicycle helmets have a larger market share in advanced Economies and the company expects a bigger export market.

Studds Accessories aims to double its manufacturing capacity to 13.5 million helmets and motorcycle accessories (12 million motorcycle helmets & accessories and 1.5 million bicycle helmets) in the coming years.

Moreover, the company is targeting increase in sales of luxury or premium two-wheeler vehicles where margins are higher. The company’s topline and bottomline growth has been consistent over the past three years. Currently, there is no helmet manufacturer which is listed on the stock exchanges. Therefore,  Studds Accessories is likely to command premium valuations whenever it gets listed.
