Stay put if you already have defence & railways stocks but avoid fresh investments: Dipan Mehta
Dipan Mehta, Director, Elixir Equities, says defence sector earnings have been strong, attracting investors and momentum trading, but valuations appear stretched with potential execution challenges. While railway stocks are rising in sympathy, government expenditure remains stable, and some companies have reported disappointing results. Existing investors may hold, but fresh investments in both sectors are not recommended due to valuation concerns. ADVERTISEMENT I want your view on the overall market yes, of course, but select packs in the market are once again gaining some steam like railways and defence. These are themes that had seen a runup, then cooled off for a bit and they have started spiking again today. Do you believe this is the beginning of another leg of spikes or do you believe it was just a one-off? Dipan Mehta: It is a continuation of the momentum which we have seen in these companies over the past few weeks or so. If you analyse the entire earning season, the best sector has been defence, not as much railways, but defence certainly has come out with flying colours and that is why investors are getting focused over there and a lot of momentum trading is also taking place over there and a lot of retail traders have entered these counters, I think the valuations are a bit stretched at this point of time. No doubt the sector had a great quarter this time, but there are always execution challenges and if you go back into history, there is a lot of lumpiness in their earnings which is not completely discounted in the valuation ratios. So, if you are invested in defence, I would say remain invested but from a fresh investment perspective to me, it is an avoid. Pick undervalued, high-quality stocks: Sonam Srivastava's 2025 playbook I am not sure about Railways. They are going up in sympathy with the defence hoping that government expenditure will pick up over there. We do not know that for sure because in the last three years, railway expenditure in the Budget has been pretty much stable at around Rs 2.5 lakh crore or so and over there also, despite a steep 30-50% correction in railway stocks, they are still quite expensive and some of the bigger ones like Titagarh Wagons came with a very disappointing set of numbers as well. I would avoid both sectors from a fresh investment perspective. But there is great long-term visibility and if you are an investor with a long-term view, you may remain invested. The big wave or the fad in the market right now is promoter exits and that too at steep discounts in some cases amid the rich valuations. There are many block deals on a daily basis and some even FII and DII driven. What is that smacking off and should one now warrant caution in the markets? Is it smacking of peak valuations by any chance? Dipan Mehta: We have seen this play out in the past also in the early half of 2024 right up to September 24 and we saw a correction after that. So, the minute the market starts to do well and valuations get steep, we are seeing promoter selling and we are seeing private equity selling and that all has been absorbed by retail investors either directly or through mutual funds. ADVERTISEMENT It has not reached the peaks which we saw in 2024, but certainly the trend is getting more and more accentuated. So, yes, it is a signal that markets are at the expensive zone and in my opinion, there are less uncertainties now than a few months ago with the exception of Trump and we do have a supportive Reserve Bank and a lot of favourable macro factors as well. In this earning season one thing is very clear that it has been very selective.I suspect the next few months will be very selective for the markets as well and wherever there are pockets of overvaluation, we will continue to see supply and this is going to be a very challenging time for the investors and not like what we saw last three-four years up to September '24 where entire market rallied. The entire trend is going to get very narrow and it is going to be a bit difficult to charter for the novice investors. ADVERTISEMENT (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel)

As birthrates fall, Turkey's government steps in
Alarmed by the fact that Turkish women are having fewer children, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has moved to tackle falling birthrates "a threat greater than war" through policies designed to bring on the babies. After declaring 2025 Turkey's "Year of the Family", Erdogan last month announced 2026 would mark the start of the "Decade of the Family". But his pleas for women to have at least three children and offers of financial incentives for newlyweds may not be enough as Turkey grapples with a deepening economic crisis. Official figures show Turkey's birthrate has fallen from 2.38 children per woman in 2001 to 1.48 in 2025 lower than in France, Britain or the United States in what Erdogan, a 71-year-old pious Muslim and father-of-four, has denounced as "a disaster". During his 22 years in office first as premier, then president fertility rates have dropped sharply in this country of 85 million people. Erdogan has blamed both women and LGBTQ "perverts". "Women and LGBTQ individuals are considered the only culprits for the declining population growth rate, with no acknowledgement of political mistakes," said retired academic and feminist activist Berrin Sonmez. "People might be hesitant to have children in this chaotic and uncertain environment. Additionally, child support is almost non-existent and education has become the most expensive sector," she said. High inflation has raged in Turkey for the past four years, forcing education costs up by more than 70 percent over the past year, official data shows. In the first quarter, unemployment stood at 8.2 percent, or 15 percent among 15- to 24-year-olds. Researchers with the DISK union say the real rate is 28.5 percent, and 37.5 percent among young people. But the government seems bent on fixing other issues, such as Turkey's record number of elective Caesarean births which stands at 61 percent, rising to 78 percent in some private hospitals. In April, Turkey banned C-section births at private healthcare facilities "without a medical justification". The procedure generally limits the number of pregnancies to two, or a maximum of three. Medical professionals say the high number of C-sections is linked to the rampant privatisation of the healthcare system since the late 1990s. C-sections are more time-efficient for medical staff 30 minutes, versus 12 hours for a traditional delivery and lower the risk of legal action over complications, said Hakan Coker, an Istanbul-based gynaecologist. "Ultimately, C-sections are perceived as a guarantee of safety" for doctors and women alike, he said. Dr Harika Bodur, an obstetrician at a major Istanbul hospital, said some women ask for a C-section "at the first appointment for fear of pain". "If you refuse, they'll go elsewhere," she said. The fear is rooted in a lack of education and discomfort with sexuality, she said. The health ministry says it is now "aiming for a target rate of 20 percent by encouraging normal childbirth through education of future parents". But the word "normal" has raised hackles notably last month when a football team carried a huge banner promoting vaginal births onto the pitch before a top-flight clash, which read: "Natural birth is normal." "If I don't want to, I won't have any children at all, it's my right," said 23-year-old chemistry student Secil Murtazaoglu. "Access to abortion is already difficult. Now they want to limit C-sections. It's all about the oppression of women," she said. In 2012, the Turkish president described abortion as "murder", but stopped short of banning it. Feminist activist Sonmez said women were subjected to huge pressures, both within their families and within society, when the much more pressing issue was the need to tackle gender violence. "We must start by combating violence against women: such policies have been eradicated and protections seriously undermined," she said. ach/rba/fo/hmw/jhb

Make in India, circularity, and fitness fads – Decathlon wants a chunk of India's sports retail pie
French sporting goods retailer Decathlon foresees 80% of their sales in India coming via Make in India products in the next five years, up from the current 60%. This syncs up with the sports retailer's investment of 100 million euros in India last year as part of a strategic plan to boost local manufacturing and solidify their presence in the country. 'Such sales are just not restricted to textile items. For instance, in the case of bicycles that we sell here, 98% is made in India. 10 years before, this was a mere 2%. So, it has come a long way. Make in India is a big advantage in terms of hedging the risk amid the geopolitical scenario, import restrictions and many other uncertainties that may come up. At the same time, it also hedges risk linked to currency fluctuations. So, we believe that India production as well as manufacturing is a strength for the business model of Decathlon India,' Sankar Chatterjee , CEO, Decathlon India told ET Digital in an interaction. A global multi-specialist sports brand offering over 60 sports under one roof, Decathlon is a manufacturer of sporting goods. With 1,750 stores worldwide and 133 stores in India, it is now looking to further its sustainability operations in the India market. The brand announced the launch of its circular business model in the country on Wednesday, anchored around three core offerings – repair services available in over 95 stores, second life resale of refurbished products in more than 90 stores and buyback of used equipment in over 50 stores, which will be slowly scaled across the country and will later be made available online. Decathlon anticipates diverting over 3,00,000 sports products from landfills by 2027 through these efforts, creating a reduction in environmental impact. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Pelajari Undo Sankar Chatterjee, CEO, Decathlon India highlights that India comes among the top 10 sports markets in the world. As part of the launch, it unveiled its sustainability campaign, Second Life Bazaar , scheduled to begin on World Environment Day from June 5th to 15th, across 68 stores nationwide. The Bazaar is designed to encourage sustainable consumption by empowering customers with hands-on DIY maintenance workshops and practical ways to prolong the lifespan of their sports gear. Annie George , Leader Sustainable Development, Decathlon India, states that the focus is on creating real and scalable solutions as India moves towards a circular economy. 'Such solutions can range from designing for durability to enabling easy repairs and buybacks. It's not just about reducing environmental impact–it's about reshaping how people access sport in a more responsible way,' she says. Live Events The circular turnover for the brand is expected to scale to Rs 100 cr by 2027 versus Rs 35 cr in the current year. The India launch is a key part of Decathlon's global decarbonisation strategy, which includes achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and a 42% reduction in absolute CO2 emissions by 2030. This is being driven by a focused approach to eliminating single-use plastic, designing long-lasting, repairable products, scaling second-life solutions, and reducing site emissions. George highlights that the biggest contribution that comes into their footprint is the products. 'Manufacturing, transporting, using the products – that is where the entire emissions stem from. When one moves towards a circular way of doing business, instead of manufacturing a new product, it is reused and it can be used multiple times. In the future, there can be other ways of increasing the life of the product through repair. Right now, our focus is decarbonising the circular business and then eventually we will move into regenerative business,' she says. Decathlon first rolled out its circular business model nearly five years ago across markets such as France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, the UK and Poland, where it has seen strong consumer uptake and operational maturity in repair and DIY spares and accessories. With the India rollout, Decathlon looks to strengthen its position in low-impact, circular sports retail which blends in sustainability as part of its operations. Delving into the future plans for the sports brand in the country, Chatterjee states that they are also investing on the value chain in terms of logistics' automation to create 'very fast' deliveries. 'We are today working with ecommerce; we are also working to make our own DTC channel for faster delivery possibilities with the investment of last mile and fulfilment strategy,' he states. Bullish about the future of the sports market in India in the times ahead, the Decathlon India CEO highlights that India comes among the top 10 sports markets in the world. As per a joint report by Deloitte and Google last year, India's sports market is projected to grow to $130 billion by 2030 from a market size of $52 billion now, accelerating at a CAGR of 14%. 'The young generation is now spending more time on leading an active lifestyle and playing more sports. Besides, interest in different kinds of sporting activities is coming up and not just in cricket. An example of that is the Indian Super League on football, which was not present some years back. There is a lot of investment in sports like Kabbadi and Table Tennis as well. These are all part of competitive sports. But even in leisure sports, spending time on activities like fitness or technical sports is happening in a big way. So the market is continuously evolving and we are a part of that change,' he says.
