Insurers in India grappled with multiple issues while reviewing motor accident claims and among them stood out damage to cars by stray dogs, falling coconuts and even elephants, TOI reported. According to Go Digit’s year-end roundup, these unique claims showcase the diverse and unexpected challenges faced by vehicle owners in India. Even though they form a comparatively smaller portion of mainstream claims, insurers noted claims arising from collisions with fixed objects or parked vehicles, as well as damages caused by falling branches. Data shows that the most prevalent type of accident claim results from rear-end collisions with another vehicle, closely followed by frontal collisions and hit-and-run cases. Among the peculiar incidents, claims involving animals stand out.

Anand Tandon, Independent Market Analyst, says “Even if you had assumed that before this fall there was only a 10% upside, now there is a 15% to 17% upside. So, there is no particular reason that one should not be looking to buy in now, especially if you have a bullish view. Of course, if you are sceptical about the market, that is a different point of view altogether, but I would still think that a bank like HDFC Bank should be part of your core portfolio and there is not much that you can do other than to trade off at the margin. What to do with HDFC Bank now with the weakness that the stock is seeing? Anand Tandon: We are looking at an issue where the deposit growth is slower than what the market was anticipating and more importantly, it means that the credit growth, which is actually doing quite well, has to be slowed down a bit. But on the other hand, the extra capital that they have had to keep is now peaked out and therefore they will start to come down. The fall that they had already predicted, which had been forecast by the management that the ROE will have to fall by at least 50 basis points, has already started to play out. So, while it may take a little while longer for it to go back to a sensible growth number, I would still argue that you will get a reasonable double-digit growth from HDFC Bank going forward and this kind of fall, we keep hearing there is a lot of money on the sideline.

“70-75% of the portfolio in our view should be in largecaps. Remaining should be largely in small caps and only very high conviction should be held in mid-caps,” says Varun Saboo, Head — Equities, Anand Rathi Shares and Stock Brokers.

But, the voice is getting louder both domestic and global that these valuations are unsustainable. What is your take? Varun Saboo: We are definitely in one of the strongest runs, something which hardly anyone would have envisaged. However, in terms of valuations, there are a lot of midcaps that are trading rich and leave little room for upsides.
