Markets @ record highs; top ten stocks which can give up to 34% return in 1 year
August, 22nd 2014

The Indian markets have been on a roll of late, hitting fresh record highs consistently, supported by strong global liquidity and easing of geo-political concerns.

The 50-share Nifty index managed to hit a fresh record high of 7929.05 on 22 August 2014, while the Sensex recorded its fresh lifetime high of 26,508.27 on 19 August 2014.

Most analysts do not see many triggers which can lead to a big fall in the markets, but given the fact that we are trading at the higher end of the range or near-key resistance levels, some bit of consolidation or correction cannot be ruled out.

However, the broader trend remains to be on the upside. Given the momentum that we have seen in the Indian markets, analysts see the Nifty touching 8000-8200 levels by December-end.

And for the Sensex, the rally may extend to 27000-28000 in the same period, but beyond that the market would require additional triggers to move forward.

"I would assume the market will still be range-bound for the time being, given the fact that valuations are at the upper end of the historical trading band," said Sanjeev Prasad, Senior Executive Director & Co-Head, Kotak Institutional Equities.

"If you look at BSE 30 index on a 12-month forward basis, it is already at about 15.5 times, not very different from what you see historically. Band is more like 12.5 to 16-16.5 times. So we are pretty much at the upper end of the trading band," he added.

Prasad is of the view that the scope for re-rating is looking a little big difficult given the fact that most of the stocks have gone up pretty significantly without any meaningful change in the fundamentals as yet or without any meaningful upgrades to earnings so far.

However, analysts are of the view that the party on Dalal Street is likely to carry for some more time aided by strong global liquidity and reform push by the newly-elected Modi government.

On Thursday, Deutsche Bank in its latest report reiterated its positive view on the Indian markets and is confident that the government will move towards big bang reforms progressively.

The global investment bank sees the Sensex touching 28000 by December 2014 end, which translates into an upside of 6.2 per cent from Wednesday's closing value of 26360.11.

HDFC Bank: Target price Rs 925 (Prabhudas Lilladher)

Though profit growth levels have moderated, RORWAs have inched to an all-time high of over 2.6 per cent on improved operating leverage. With intended capital raise, balance sheet will strengthen and improve RoAs further as revenue momentum will start picking up and opex costs increase will be gradual.

SBI's asset quality has improved on some ARC sales and better recoveries, though slippages are still high but overall stress seems to be diminishing bringing stability to asset quality.

Opex efficiencies are now kicking in on measures of correction in overheads and also is best placed on pension and wage provisions which will keep Opex growth lowest among peers.
