PL Capital Report Highlights Inflation and Monsoon Risks to Indian Market Recovery
Indian stock markets face potential further declines due to rising inflation, higher interest rates, and a 13% monsoon deficit impacting agriculture and rural demand, according to a PL Capital report. The brokerage sees a limited chance of a sharp V-shaped recovery soon, citing persistent foreign investor selling and geopolitical uncertainties. While domestic demand remains resilient with a 7.1% growth forecast for FY27, inflation may reduce consumption post-festival season. Earnings-per-share estimates for FY27 and FY28 were slightly lowered, reflecting cautious market outlooks amid global economic pressures.
