Overview:

Mid-size Emerging Segments and Company Research (MESCOR) an independent and unbiased research compendium on mid-size emerging sectors and the first ever in-depth research reports on under-researched companies within these emerging segments.

The rapidly changing business landscape across many conventional sectors has led to significant growth/de-growth in many allied and ancillary industries. MESCOR was born out of a need for comprehensive information on these emerging but lesser researched industries and entities. CRISIL Research leverages its decades of knowledge and understanding on demand driving sectors like telecom, retail, oil & gas, power etc to come out with a comprehensive MESCOR report on emerging sectors.

Mid-Size Emerging Segments Research:

Each report provides an in-depth, unbiased and independent view on the mid-size emerging segments. It also offers a comprehensive picture of the segment in terms of the market-size, composition, growth potential and structure, its 4 years performance outlook, opportunities and risks, estimates and forecasts on various parameters. Investment & funding opportunities for the segments are also included.

Company Research:

Individual reports of relatively smaller and lesser known companies, including unlisted entities operating within these sectors is offered. Information on the business models, company structure, trends, peer comparison, revenue and margin drivers, financial performance score and details on future plans have been presented. Some of the companies covered include 'Snowman Frozen Foods Ltd', 'Dolphin Offshore Enterprises (India) Ltd', 'Kausar India Ltd', 'Acme Tele Power Ltd'.

Emerging Sectors covered under MESCOR:

Cold Chain- Buoyant growth in retailing, food service and emphasis on exports are expected to create significant business opportunities

Oilfield Equipments & Services- Increasing number of finds, coupled with higher acreage being made available for exploration under NELP rounds, is expected to drive investments in the domestic E&P segment over the medium term

Telecom Towers and Allied Services- Stupendous growth in the mobile subscriber base in India has led to the emergence of a new business opportunity - the need to build passive and active infrastructure for mobile networks

Container freight stations / Inland container depots- Rapid growth in containerisation of EXIM as well as domestic trade and the need for a one-stop-shop for handling storage, transportation, customs etc. has resulted in a growing market for CFS / ICD

Power transmission towers- Significant capacity addition in power generation and formation of national grid will increase in transmission lines, resulting in a humungous expansion of the transmission towers business.

Power transformers- Huge investments planned in generation, transmission and distribution to tide over crippling power shortage is expected to drive the demand for transformers.
