CapitaLand India Trust: Data Centre Expansion in Focus

CapitaLand India Trust (SGX:CY6U) moved into the spotlight after CapitaLand Investment Limited unveiled CapitaLand Data Centre Chennai 01 in Tamil Nadu, reinforcing a long-term push into Indian data centres.

The project is jointly held by CapitaLand India Trust and CapitaLand India Data Centre Fund, with a planned investment of about INR 19,400 million and 53 MW of gross power capacity on completion.

For investors watching CapitaLand India Trust, the data centre push comes at a time of weak recent performance. The share price is at SGD0.87 after a 30-day share price return of -5.95% and a year-to-date decline of 29.27%, although the 3-year total shareholder return of 8.85% remains positive.

CapitaLand India Trust now trades well below both analyst targets and estimated fair value, after a sharp slide this year. Is this a discount on misunderstood data centre plans, or a warning that the market has it right?

Price-to-Earnings of 4.6x for CapitaLand India Trust: Is it justified?

CapitaLand India Trust trades on a P/E of 4.6x, and that low earnings multiple sits alongside a share price of SGD0.87 that has fallen sharply this year compared to both the SG market and the SG real estate sector over the past 12 months.

The P/E ratio compares what you pay per unit of current earnings. For a real estate trust that targets income distributions from Indian business parks, industrial assets and data centres, this metric gives you a quick sense of how much of those earnings are being capitalised into the unit price.

CY6U is described as trading at good value compared to peers and industry, with its 4.6x P/E set against an SG real estate industry average of 12.4x and a peer average of 21x. That is a steep discount. The estimated fair P/E of 10.9x also sits far above the current ratio.
