Manishi Raychaudhuri believes Nifty 50 may pause before scaling new highs due to elevated valuations and muted earnings estimates.
He notes that India's long-term outlook remains strong, but significant outperformance in the near term is unlikely compared to broader Asian markets.
Raychaudhuri sees promise in three key sectors: defence, green energy, and contract development and manufacturing, which are poised to benefit from global supply chain diversification.
He mentions that flows into emerging markets are strengthening, supported by incremental progress on global trade fronts and the RBI's tilt towards rate cuts for domestic growth.
