But if a company or sector is not linked to those tailwinds and is still trading at higher PE in this high interest rate environment, then a fair amount of caution will come in.” Interest rates are largely a function of how markets are valued and these have gone up quite significantly.

But broadly the question is whether with the global interest rates going up and Indian stock market trading above 10 years of the average valuation, we should reset the valuation benchmark in the light of higher global interest rates?
