Which sectors will need a relook in terms of earnings projection now? Gautam Duggad explains
Gautam Duggad, Head Of Research, Director - Institutional Equities at Motilal Oswal Financial Services, says stock markets are reacting maturely to tariff impacts, with major sectors like financials and IT remaining relatively stable. Earnings growth is expected to be driven by domestic economic factors and a shift towards consumption-focused policies. While large sectors face limited growth, smaller sectors such as EMS and cement are projected to lead earnings, with pharma and consumer durables also contributing. ADVERTISEMENT Forget the overall exports and the impact of tariffs should they come in at 25% on various sectors. The oil risk where things settle down with Russia seems to be a bit of a niggling worry because it is going to have a bearing on marketing margins, etc, for us. Gautam Duggad: Absolutely, that is one of the most important commodities for us and it has a bearing on multiple macro parameters, current account deficit, inflation, and obviously consequently the interest rates in the economy. We will have to keep a close eye on where the crude oil settles. But in the last 10 years, barring that one- or two-month period when crude oil spiked up to $130-140 during the Russia-Ukraine crisis in early 2022, most of the last 10 years we have seen oil behaving in a tight range. That has helped us at the margin in so far as macro parameters are concerned. So yes, we will have to keep an eye on it, but there's very little we can predict and do about it till the time things settle down. Help us understand which sectors will now need a relook in terms of the earnings projection because for now, the chemicals and textiles are taking a bit of a hit on the stock prices as well. What is your analysis? Gautam Duggad: So, sectors which add very little to the overall earnings pool are getting hit. The three or four big sectors which contribute almost 65% to 70% of the earnings pool – financials, IT, consumption, auto, and to an extent utilities are not that directly impacted by this tariff related madness. Which is why we are seeing a very mature and a calibrated reaction by stock markets. Our earnings will be a function of two or three important things like how the domestic economy behaves as the after effects of rate cuts and income tax cuts along with improved liquidity and good monsoon take shape; whether we see a pickup in high frequency indicators in early September, October and whether consumption revives because after a long time government has changed its stance and started focusing away from capex towards consumption? Consumption has almost been dead so far as low ticket items are concerned. In fact, in our model portfolio, we have made consumer staple zero for the first time in the last 10 years. Our entire weight in consumption is allocated towards consumer discretionary. Third, particularly this quarter and this year too (FY26), smaller sectors are driving the 10% growth that we are talking about. For example, in this quarter, we are expecting private banks to report an earnings decline, PSU banks to post flat numbers and it obviously has done 5-6% growth which was expected. Consumer has shown zero growth, auto a slight bit of a decline because of a decline in some of the heavy OEMs like Tata Motors, Hyundai and Maruti. So, whatever 10-11% growth that we are pencilling in for this quarter as well as the full year is being led by EMS, and cement. Cement will have a rocking quarter as well as a year after a long time, but it is well expected. Then, pharma is going to post double digit earnings and a little bit of consumer durables and some other smaller sectors. All the big sectors' performance is going to be very limited both for this quarter as well as for the full year because the big tailwind in the asset quality that we have enjoyed in the financials between FY18 to FY25 when the backing BFSI profit pool in our coverage universe went from Rs 50,000 crore to almost Rs 5 lakh crore in seven years, seems to be settling at 10-12% growth which is broadly converging with your underlying credit growth in the economy and consumption. ADVERTISEMENT Till the time it picks up, we will have this very peculiar problem with the three big sectors – banks, consumption and also largecap IT. These three sectors put together account for 55-60% of the profit pool and they are not growing beyond 7-8%. Till the time one of these sector's earnings picks up, the index earnings are going to be maybe high-single digit or low-double digit. The real alpha therefore will accrue from stock picking and within the sector also, the dispersion of earnings growth is very high. For example, if you were positive on consumption for the last four years and had allocated in HUL and ITC, you made no money. Similarly, in IT, if you were positive and allocated towards largecap IT, you massively underperformed. This may sound like a pure bottom-up stock pickers market and therefore while your sector call can be right, unless the stock call is right, you'll end up underperforming even there.

Laxmi India Finance IPO subscribed 1.05x on final day so far; should you apply? Check GMP, review, and more
The Rs 254.26 crore initial public offering (IPO) of Laxmi India Finance fully subscribed on the final day of the subscription period, registering an overall subscription rate of 1.05 times. This strong response was largely driven by significant interest from retail investors. The IPO shares are trading at a grey market premium of Rs 4, implying a listing price of around Rs 162, about 2.5% above the IPO's upper price band of Rs 158. ADVERTISEMENT By 11:10 AM on the final day of the IPO subscription, the overall subscription rate had increased to 1.05 times, indicating that the issue was fully subscribed with some additional demand. Among the different investor categories, retail investors showed the greatest interest, oversubscribing their portion by 1.15 times, meaning they applied for 15% more shares than allotted to them. On the other hand, non-institutional investors (NII) were less enthusiastic, with only 78% of their allocated shares being subscribed, reflecting lower demand in this segment. Similarly, qualified institutional buyers (QIBs), who are typically large investors such as mutual funds and insurance companies, subscribed to just 45% of their allotted shares, showing relatively weak participation from institutional investors in this IPO. As of July 31, the grey market premium (GMP) for Laxmi India Finance's IPO was Rs 4, which means the shares are trading at a slight premium of about 2.5% above the IPO's upper price band of Rs 158. The GMP indicates that investors in the unofficial grey market expect the shares to list at around Rs 162 on the stock exchange. In other words, the implied listing price based on grey market activity is Rs 162, slightly higher than the IPO price. The IPO, which opened for subscription on July 29 and closes on July 31, is a book-built issue with a price band of Rs 150–158 per share. It comprises a fresh issue of 1.04 crore equity shares worth Rs 165.17 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of 56.38 lakh shares worth Rs 89.09 crore by existing shareholders. The company intends to utilise the net proceeds from the fresh issue to strengthen its capital base and support future lending operations. ADVERTISEMENT Shares are proposed to be listed on both the BSE and NSE, with a tentative listing date of August investors can bid for a minimum lot size of 94 shares, amounting to Rs 14,852 at the upper end of the price band. ADVERTISEMENT Laxmi India Finance has built a strong footprint in rural and semi-urban lending. As of March 2025, the company reported assets under management (AUM) of Rs 1,277 crore, with MSME loans accounting for 76.34% of the portfolio. The loan book spans Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, supported by a branch network of 158 offices and over 35,500 active borrowers, many of them first-time credit company's revenue surged 42% year-on-year to Rs 248 crore in FY25, while profit after tax climbed 60% to Rs 36 crore. Backed by high-yield lending products and a focus on underserved markets, Laxmi India Finance positions itself as a scalable play on India's growing formal credit ecosystem. ADVERTISEMENT Bajaj Broking recommends subscribing to the IPO from a long-term investment perspective. 'Laxmi India Finance Limited (LIFL) focuses on catering to the financial needs of underserved customers, particularly in the MSME segment. Over the past three fiscal years, the company has shown steady growth in both total income and net profit, reporting Rs 130.67 crore / Rs 15.97 crore in FY23, Rs 175.02 crore / Rs 22.47 crore in FY24, and Rs 248.04 crore / Rs 36.01 crore in FY25,' the brokerage company's average earnings per share (EPS) over the last three years stood at Rs 7.26, with an average return on net worth (RoNW) of 14.01%.
