Kamlesh Rao, CEO of Kotak Securities believes the government will work
towards reducing the fiscal deficit, which is a key factor for any government.
"With the need to increase consumption demand, there will be a relook
at the personal and corporate taxation rates. A focus on kicking the capex
cycle which is the big stimulus required for sustained economic growth.
Inverted tax laws will hopefully find correction to realize the “Make in India”
plan of the government," he says.

markets are going to remain volatile on the back of internal or external news
flow but in the next 12 to 18 months of time we are expecting steady and
positive indications. Down side is limited to 8000 as per Nifty and 27000
as per Sensex. On the higher side, we are expecting 25 percent to 30
percent returns in next 12 to 18 months of time," Rao adds.
