J.P. Morgan Projects Small and Mid-Cap Firms to Lead Q2 Earnings Growth in India
J.P. Morgan's report forecasts that domestic small- and mid-cap companies in India will surpass large-cap firms in earnings growth during the September quarter, driven by capital expenditure, modern manufacturing, and AI-led data center investments. While Nifty 50 companies are expected to see 17% year-on-year earnings growth, overall profitability may be affected by rising input costs. Growth is anticipated in sectors like materials, logistics, hospitals, retail, and financials, though performance will vary, with some sectors facing margin pressures.
