Market strategist Vipul Bhowar of Waterfield Advisors expects strong double-digit returns for Indian equities by next Diwali (Samvat 2082), underpinned by an earnings revival and grounded valuations. He is especially bullish on sectors such as metals, quick-service restaurants (QSR) and building materials, citing consolidation over the past year that has laid the groundwork for the next growth leg.
