10:30am Market Expert: Valuations for Indian market have
gotten out of hand and the next 12 months could be “very painful” for some
parts of it, believes Dimensions Consulting’s Ajay Srivastava.
Srivastava said that economy looked “fundamentally positive” in the wake of
reforms undertaken by the government, but the steps will take time to percolate
down to earnings.
“Some correction has already happened. More has to happen,” he said. “The
investor should reallocate his portfolio away from stocks that have made him
profits. Also, don’t make large commitments [to stocks].”
But still, the analyst said pockets of opportunities existed within select
stocks and sectors.
He picked out telecom stocks as one that are poised to double in the next
two-three years. “After the spectrum auction, their cost of material has become
fixed. They will have assured revenue. They can’t be many new players in the
market,” he said, adding that the shift in dynamics will cause valuations for
these stocks to go from the 2 to 4 times price-to-book they are currently at,
to 7 to 10 times.
