For the markets as per Sharekhan, Year 2024 Looks promising, but valuation are not cheap anymore: New Year 2024 appears promising with the markets hitting a new high and economic growth is healthy especially in the context of a slowdown globally, said Sharekhan analysts. Valuations look stretched in certain pockets, they added, as reflected in the micro-cap rally and the euphoria in primary issues including the SME segment. The Nifty trades at 23.4x the trailing 12-month price-earning (PE), which is not cheap but isn’t expensive either, especially given the expected earnings growth of 12-14% CAGR over the next two years.

However they say that Investors need not worry as India’s multi-year growth story is intact!.

In the Real Estate sector, a revival in property cycle to sustain, driven by a time correction in prices, better affordability, reasonable interest rates and need to have bigger house. In the Infrastructire space, Budgetary allocation for capex has been going up substantially for last couple of years and supporting various industries. Amongst The Corporates many large corporates have set out a capacity expansion (including core sectors). Banks in better health now and capitalised to support credit growth in the economy.
