  "account": "Sembcorp Industries, a Singapore-listed energy company, is set to complete its planned initial public offering (IPO) of its Indian renewable energy unit, Sembcorp Green Infra (SGI). This move could potentially boost the group's value, according to analysts at CGS International (CGSI). CGSI believes that SGI's IPO could establish a market-based valuation for the subsidiary and drive a re-rating of the parent company, Sembcorp Industries. Analysts estimate SGI's valuation to be around S$5 billion to S$6.7 billion, before debt repayment, which is below the 13 times valuation of its renewable energy peers. Sembcorp's India business is currently undervalued relative to its potential, and the IPO could make the entire group more attractive to investors seeking a \"fundamental non-index pick.\" If Sembcorp is removed from the MSCI Singapore Index on Aug 31, analysts view this as a buying opportunity, with DBS maintaining a \"buy\" rating and a target price of S$7.30.",
