Ashwini Agarwal, Founder, Demeter Advisors, says the market is kind of ignoring the elections which is always a very dangerous thing to do. You may be right that the market is kind of discounting a good outcome for the BJP and that may or may not happen. So, yes, that is an issue. But, having said that, even if there is a little bit of a shakeup, history tells us that state elections and central elections are very different things and so to extrapolate what happens at the state level as an outcome for the general elections in the middle of next year might be a mistake.” So far so good. A party which started just before Diwali, looks like it still has got some more legs left. I agree with you. The party looks likely to continue for the simple reason that market has been climbing a wall of worry and if we turn the clock back a couple of months, the worry was on the interest rate environment, on inflation and slower growth and suddenly the narrative seems to have changed that inflation is moderating, interest rates have come off in the US if 10-year government bond yields are to be observed.

Neelkanth Mishra, Chief Economist, Axis Bank, says “construction is considered the biggest employer after agriculture. So if construction activity is so strong, it is very surprising to me that for staples companies, the volume growth has been so anaemic. I can think of three or four reasons for this. All of them are contributors, it is very hard to conclude on how long they are going to last. The first is that perhaps we are looking at the wrong metrics. Because remember that in the bottom 50% of the population, which is what we are tracking through such metrics, brands are a luxury.” The outsized bet that has worked so far this year is bet on urban India, the premiumisation trend. That K-shaped recovery has played out only for the uber rich, and it has not really played out for the rural economy per se. Even right now, the trends and the data points that you are seeing do not really point to a meaningful recovery in the rural end of the economy. Is that a worrisome sign? It is indeed worrisome.

Dipan Mehta, Director, Elixir Equities, says “Ujjivan Finance is one company we are quite positive on and it would be a perfect tactical play because once the merger takes place, the cost is going down and from a valuation multiple, it is very attractive compared to other microfinance companies. There is scope for the PEs to be re-rated and in the next three-four quarters, there is no threat of NPA. We will see a nice runway for earnings growth for Ujjivan Small Finance Bank." Would you call it a tactical trade or more a high-risk, high-return idea where the shelf life could be 6 to 12 months in your portfolio? Every fund manager has different tactics. Some stocks you buy are classic compounders. Some stocks you buy because they are cheap, but there are also some tactical and special situation stocks which you are tempted to buy depending on the lay of the land and depending on the terrain and what the company has to offer. Again, disclosure, there is Ujjivan Financial Services.

Shares of state-owned green energy financier, Indian Renewable Energy Development Authority (IREDA), were locked in the upper circuit, or their daily permissible limit, on the stock-market debut Wednesday, mirroring the broader optimism that propelled the biggest benchmark index to reclaim 20,000 levels after nearly two months and underscoring undiminished investor appetite for new offerings anchored in sustainable growth. The IREDA stock, which began the trading day at a 56% premium to the issue price at ₹50 a share, ultimately ended the day locked at the upper circuit — at ₹59.99 apiece. That translates into an upside of 87.47% from the issue price. The ₹2,150-crore initial public offering (IPO) was sold to investors at a price band of ₹30-32 and had been subscribed 39 times, with the qualified institutional buyers' portion oversubscribed 104 times. The stock surge, which takes the financier's valuations past the ₹16,000-crore mark, also points to immediate limited upside, although the extent of oversubscription and broader market trends might limit downside risks.
