NDTV Profit’s special research section collates quality and in-depth equity and economy research reports from across India’s top brokerages, asset managers and research agencies. These reports offer NDTV Profit’s subscribers an opportunity to expand their understanding of companies, sectors and the economy.

Anand Rathi Report

Most FMCG companies and those that operate in consumer discretionaries are up at least 10% post-elections, due to their defensive nature and optimism about better prospects.

A host of tailwinds—monsoon-led rural revival, post-election focus on social welfare and crude price-led margin buoyancy—augur well for the sector.

For the companies we cover, we estimate an average 13% earnings CAGR over FY24-26, assisted by gross-margin gains and recovering demand.

We cover four of the ten companies we hosted/interacted: Godrej Consumer, United Spirits, Radico Khaitan and Zydus Wellness.

We have Buy recommendations on Godrej Consumer and Zydus Wellness and Hold recommendations on United Spirits and Radico Khaitan.
