Akshay Bhagwat, Senior Vice President — Derivatives Research, JM Financial Services, says for a positional trader, it makes good sense to take a buy position in Reliance now because the risk reward payoff is beneficial from current levels. Assuming that from highly oversold zones, Reliance again makes a comeback, the recovery can see a rally till Rs 2,900. Bhagwat recommends that if one has a buy position, keep a stop loss below 2700. As a trading bet, it is a very strong setup considering the risk reward payoff. One can consider buying Reliance for targets of around Rs 2,850, — the first target. Rs 2900 will be the second target with a strict stop loss below Rs 2,700. Bhagwat also says the Paytm stock can be a Hold or Buy. The upside can be Rs 950 to 1000 in the short to medium term scenario. What is your market prognosis right now? Have we formed a bottom and are we likely to move upwards from here on or it is still too early to call a bottom right now? Akshay Bhagwat: Markets have shown some tendency of recovery from the levels of 24,800 basis spot Nifty. The good part in today's session is that your volatility index has cooled down a bit 2.5%, so it is in the process of forming a possible bottom. It is just day one today after five days of losing around 1,400 points from the life highs and it is an attempt which the market is making on the back of the RBI event where some short positions in the derivative space are getting covered up.

«But if you look at 21, 22, 23, if you look at the returns, they really have not as a class outperformed the markets. In fact, I would suggest that they have underperformed markets meaningfully, even if the companies are giving you a return,» says Rahul Bhasin, Baring Private Equity Partners. Do you think the class of 2024 IPOs is different from the class of 2021 wherein there was the frenzy, there were the fancied names, but there was also no path to profitability? Do you think first things first, we need to make that disconnect? Rahul Bhasin: Look, I will break that up into two parts. I mean, one part is the fact that mostly IPO markets give very good returns for investors when there has been a drought of IPOs for an extended period of time and so when you are talking about 21, there probably been a lull in the IPO market for almost a decade before that and virtually IPOs had dried up and then when you start seeing IPOs, usually it is in the first year after a drought that you usually get higher quality companies.

«So, this has been a trend for the last couple of quarters and it has continued even in the second quarter. The second aspect was the PSB, the public sector banks, continuing to see a very good credit growth even in this quarter,» says Gaurav Kochar, Mirae Asset Investment Managers. Dissect for us what is it that you have made of the three things that really stand out from amidst the Q2 updates of banks so far? Gaurav Kochar: So, some of the banks have reported their pre-quarterly release for the second quarter of FY25. So, based on this the trends have been mixed. If I were to give three key takeaways from that, one would definitely be that the loan growth has been quite mixed. Banks with higher credit deposit ratio, they have seen some moderation in loan growth and they have seen some acceleration in deposit growth whereas banks that were sitting on comfortable CD ratios are seeing better credit growth than deposit growth.
