Key Points

And that is an area where one will have to be a little bit watchful about because for some reason, if the market trips at this point of time, there is a possibility of a downside, offering opportunity to enter into some of the real estate counters..

Deven Choksey: Well, if you look at the macro space, you would find that 60% of the total savings and investment as a percentage of GDP, goes towards buying real estate and gold and balance 40% goes into the financial assets..

Interesting pattern to study because every time this company takes money from investors and puts money into the capital expansion, after four years the project gets completed and thereafter the reward time starts for this company..

But till the time capex gets over, I guess the company is underperforming as far as the stock price is concerned and that is the time when investors normally end up accumulating this stock to get this kind of return..

Deven Choksey: I am not having a complete coverage on this company, but at the macro picture level, we look at this particular business very carefully and as you rightly said at the end, I think the US retailers have started once again with more confidence in 2024 likely to be, that is where probably you are going to see higher demand for Indian textiles and Indian textile products...
