GST reforms: How and where to invest in the stock market? Analysts decode
The proposed rejig in goods and services tax (GST) announced by the government last week coupled with eights pay commission dole out is likely to push consumption-driven stocks such as air conditioners (ACs), select automobiles, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), retail and counters of quick service restaurants (QSRs) into higher orbit over the next few months, believe analysts. In this backdrop, they suggest investors stay with the 'consumption' theme rather than 'capex-driven' plays over the next few months. At the bourses, the consumption-driven theme has played out well thus far in fiscal 2025-26 (FY26) with the Nifty India Consumption index rising nearly 11 per cent as compared to around 5 per cent upswing in the Nifty 50 index during this period. Here's how leading brokerages have decoded the GST rejig-related developments and their investment strategy in this backdrop. Bernstein Despite good monsoons and green shoots in rural areas, a broad based consumption recovery awaits. An optimistic case of this measure results in a net annual consumption boost by $13 billion, assuming 65 per cent of incentive comes back as consumption. Equity markets will cheer this fiscal push - although a part of this flow will emerge from truncated capex. However, a recovery demand in the economy to eventually push private spending is the argument in the medium term. As for Nifty - despite near term economic weakness and tariff uncertainty we continue to expect a high single-digit return for the rest of the year. From a sector perspective we retain our consumer over Industrials focus this year. We moved to overweight on consumer staples last month, had upgraded durables earlier this year and have been selectively picking other discretionary areas for our India portfolio (select retail, QSRs). GST rate cut impact Jefferies Likely beneficiaries may include currently 28 per cent taxed goods such as two-wheelers (Bajaj, Hero, TVS, Eicher should benefit), ACs (Voltas, Blue Star, Amber Enterprises. Marginal positive for Whirlpool, Havells, Lloyd) and possibly small cars and hybrids. Cement is another large category at 28 per cent, which stands to benefit. The removal of the 12 per cent tax bracket will be positive for processed foods, footwear (less than Rs 1,000), hotels (less than Rs 7,500), garments (over Rs 1,000), and farm equipment. Relief in headline tax rates for Insurance premium is also likely. Lower tax on cement & some other construction material is positive for developer margins. The festive season shopping will start from mid-September. The implementation of GST rate changes on consumer durables needs to be timed accordingly, or there is a risk of delay. The GST rate cut will also have some dampening impact on the CPI well into the first half of FY26 and may raise hopes of further rate cuts by the RBI. Emkay Global The sector rotation theme of consumption over capex will see further traction. However, the net impact on aggregate demand will hinge on how the government offsets the resulting revenue loss. If fiscal targets are to be maintained, this gap is likely to be bridged by reducing other expenditures—whether in capex, or revenue expenditure outlays in the social sector and rural schemes—limiting the overall lift to demand. However, all else equal, such tax changes should boost consumption in FMCG, consumer durables, autos, cement, and similar sectors, with even the Insurance sector seeing a gain. Motilal Oswal Financial Services Key segments/sectors that stand to benefit include Consumer Staples (through better demand, lower raw material costs), Automobiles (four-wheelers), Cement, Hotels (sub Rs 7,500 room rate inventory), Retail (footwear), Consumer durables, Logistics, Quick Commerce. Some of the key stock beneficiaries include Hindustan Unilever, Britannia, Maruti, Ashok Leyland, Ultratech, Voltas, Amber, Delhivery, LemonTree, Swiggy, HDFC Bank, and Bajaj Finance. ICICI Securities Among stocks, select packaged foods Nestle, HUL, Tata Consumer, AWL Agri and Patanjali are likely to benefit from the rejig. GST rejig on ayurvedic products (chyawanprash, ethnic and OTC products) is likely to benefit Dabur, Emami. Dabur, Varun Beverages could gain from rejig in GST rates for fruit juices. In discretionary items, Go Fashion, Vishal Mega Mart, Page Industries are likely to gain. Blue Star, Voltas, Havells (Lloyd), Whirlpool could benefit in the white goods and durables categories. Hatsun, Dodla, Heritage in the dairy segment, and Maruti Suzuki, Hero MotoCorp and Mahindra & Mahindra are expected to be the key beneficiaries.

Ola Electric targets global market with ₹5 lakh Diamondhead EV motorcycle
Ola Electric on Friday unveiled its new electric motorcycle, Diamondhead, with an expected price of Rs 500,000, targeting a foray into the global market. The company said the motorcycle is designed for commuting, touring, and performance riding. Deliveries of these vehicles are expected to begin in the calendar year 2027. Further advancing its localisation drive, the EV major also announced the integration of an indigenously developed 4680 battery cell into two of its key models: the S1 Pro Plus electric scooter and the Roadster X Plus motorcycle. It also showcased a motor without rare earth metals at its Gigafactory. Deliveries of the updated vehicles will begin post-Navaratri. Founder and CEO Bhavish Aggarwal said the Diamondhead aims for a target price of Rs 500,000. 'Our mission is to take biking to the next level not just in India, but across the world,' he added. The addition of the indigenous battery to its portfolio follows the company's launch of its 110-acre Ola Gigafactory, which has an initial capacity of 5 gigawatt-hours (GWh). Ola also refreshed its scooter lineup, unveiling the S1 Pro Sport, which will be priced at Rs 149,999 (ex-showroom, introductory), with deliveries commencing from January 2026. 'The S1 Pro Sport delivers twice the power of others in the segment, with top speed and acceleration suited for both track and city use. It offers performance, safety features, and suspension that competitors lack, and will be priced competitively against current market options,' Aggarwal said. To improve its market share, the company will now retail the S1 Pro Plus at Rs 1,69,999, down from Rs 1,99,999, while the Roadster X Plus is priced at Rs 1,89,999, a cut from Rs 2,24,000. The launch comes at a time when Ola's competitors are rapidly expanding their electric two-wheeler portfolios. In recent months, Bajaj introduced the Chetak 3001 at Rs 99,990 to target the budget EV segment; Hero MotoCorp rolled out the Vida VX2 with flexible battery ownership options; and TVS launched the iQube ST with a bigger 5.3 kWh battery and an extended 212 km range. Ather updated its 450 series with new features like magic twist braking and plans to unveil a new EL platform with software upgrades and faster charging later this month. Meanwhile, Ultraviolette launched the Tesseract scooter, and Royal Enfield is gearing up for the launch of its first electric motorcycle. The S1 Pro Sport's electric motor produces 16 kW of peak power and 71 Nm of torque, enabling a claimed 0–40 km/h time of 2.0 seconds and a top speed of 152 km/h. According to Vahan data from January to July, Ola registered 1,33,134 units in 2025 compared to 2,70,346 units in 2024 — a decline of about 50.8 per cent. This launch comes at a time when the company has been losing market share amid multiple challenges, including thousands of consumer complaints over alleged faulty products that prompted CCPA intervention and a sizable warranty provision, as well as reported glitches in its vehicle registration process following the termination of a vendor partnership during an internal system overhaul. The company outlined plans to scale its hypercharger network to 10,000 chargers by 2026, aiming to cover major urban and intercity routes. Ola also provided an update on its battery cell manufacturing programme, which it said will enable greater localisation of components. According to Aggarwal, this initiative 'will help control costs and reduce import dependence' as electric mobility adoption increases. Ola also unveiled its new MoveOS 6 software, which will add features such as adaptive cruise control, blind spot alerts, a voice assistant, and multiple customisable modes. The company highlighted its in-house 4680 'Bharat' cells, which will power two-wheelers, three-wheelers, energy storage systems, and drones. The motorcycles and scooters will be available through Ola's existing direct-to-customer sales network, with bookings for the scooters starting immediately. Aggarwal said the company's focus is to expand both product offerings and charging infrastructure in parallel, supporting wider adoption of electric two-wheelers in India.
