CMP: Rs 70.50 Target Price: Rs 90 CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets maintains an 'outperform' on Jagran Prakashan, with a 12-month price target of Rs 90. "An economic slowdown notwithstanding, improving literacy and income levels in Hindi heartland imply that drivers for Jagran's growth are still in place. With a 35% ad rate hike in 2008, Jagran continues to narrow the gap with its more expensive English rivals," the foreign brokerage said in a client note, after a Q&A reply from the management.

While management has budgeted for a minor increase in FY10 newsprint prices, it believes that prices are likely to peak in Q2FY08 and decline thereon," it added.
