Jefferies Identifies Top Indian Power, Defence, and NBFC Stocks with Growth Potential
Jefferies highlights investment opportunities in India's power, defence, and non-banking financial sectors, citing strong capital expenditure visibility. It rates companies like Siemens Energy, Hitachi Energy, BEL, HAL, Bajaj Finance, and others as 'Buy' with upside potential ranging from 18% to 34%. Conversely, BHEL receives an 'Underperform' rating despite increased orders due to concerns over order flow consistency. The brokerage notes robust earnings, healthy loan growth, and rising indigenisation supporting sector outlooks, while also acknowledging risks such as pricing competition in cables and rural demand uncertainties.
