Macquarie expects Power Finance Corp PFC to book a large mark-to-market loss.

PFC has 50 billion rupees of foreign currency liabilities,out of which 86 percent is unhedged,Macquarie said in a note.

We think the hit in 2Q12 due to adverse movement in the Yen and USD compared to the Indian rupee INR could be as much as 5 billion rupees or 50 percent of estimated pre-tax-profits for the quarter,Macquarie said in a note maintaining a outperform rating with a stock target price of 190 rupees.

At 11.32 a.m shares were at 139.35 rupees,down 2.07 percent.
