Easy Trip Planners has built a strong customer connection by providing them with the option of no-convenience fee, while avoiding any hidden cost in the final price along with differentiated customer approach. This is well reflected in its growing customer base (28% CAGR over FY18-20), repeat transaction rate of 86% and increase in mobile traffic from 65% in FY18 to 81% in FY20. Thus its overall market share among OTAs have improved from 3.1% in FY18 to 4.6% in FY20. Given the rising internet penetration, growing share of low cost airlines and convenience of online booking, India’s OTA industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3-4% by FY23 which offers further room for Easy Trip Planners to gain market share.
Easy Trip Planners plans to sustain high growth in air travel by further boosting its international air travel. It also intends to expand its Hotel and Holiday Packages segment which enjoys better margins vis-a-vis air ticketing segment. It recently incorporated subsidiaries in U.K., U.A.E. and Singapore to garner higher share from international travel. The revenue contribution from this segment has increased to 5.4% in FY20 from 2.7% in FY19 and is expected to rise further.
Motilal Oswal like Easy Trip Planners given its lean business model, differentiated offering and strong customer connect. However the travel industry which was significantly impacted due to Covid-19, is likely to take much longer time to revive; though recovery is visible and vaccination drive would further propel it. The issue is valued at 49.9x FY21E P/E on an annualized basis. Being the first in the segment to get listed in India, Easy Trip Planners could generate high investor interest. Thus Motilal Oswal recommends Subscribe to the IPO.
