BNP Paribas: Sensex to rise over 9% to 50,500 by 2021-end

BNP Paribas: Sensex to rise over 9% to 50,500 by 2021-end

Despite questions over an apparent disconnect between the markets and the real economy, French brokerage BNP Paribas on Tuesday said it is “overweight” on Indian securities and sees the 30-share BSE benchmark Sensex rising by over 9 per cent to 50,500 points by 2021-end. The big are getting bigger in India, and the same helps the equities market, the brokerage said, flagging sagging urban incomes, persistently high inflation and “questionable quality” of bank balance sheets as concerning factors for the country. After a 30 per cent fall in the early days of the pandemic, the Indian markets have seen a strong rebound and risen over 70 per cent since April this year.

While critics attribute the rally to a global liquidity glut, investors say they are taking a longer term bet on the economy’s prospects. There are also some who are concerned about the excessive concentration in a few stocks. “In terms of stock selection, India continues to benefit from two phenomena – the big getting bigger (and those ‘big’ stocks largely constitute the investable market) and availability of quality stocks in relative abundance compared with its Asian peers,” analysts at the brokerage said. It further said economic recovery in India seems well entrenched and some high frequency indicators like auto sales, steel and cement consumption are at or higher than pre-COVID levels. In some pockets of discretionary consumption, like passenger vehicles, feedback from manufacturers indicates not just inventory restocking but also a genuine uptick in demand, it added. Recent policy initiatives like changes in agriculture marketing laws and labour laws among others are aimed at boosting agricultural incomes and incentivising labour-intensive and export-focused investments, and their impact will be felt over the longer term.
