India’s manufacturing push

As the Indian government’s manufacturing push theme plays out, a key beneficiary could be Amber Enterprises, the research firm says. Core competency in ACs and diversification into components, with support from the PLI scheme, can yield over 36% earnings CAGR over FY24-30, it adds.

PSBs & reforms

A reform in state-owned enterprises has aided growth in State Bank of India stocks. Its loan growth is strong and return on assets is improving. “Improving investor perception can drive some rerating,” says Jefferies.
