HSBC recommends 10 India stocks with up to 47% upside
HSBC is a big bank that studies companies and tells investors which ones it thinks will grow.
It just looked at companies in India and picked ten it believes are good buys.
These companies make jewellery, cars, hospital care, power systems and more.
HSBC thinks people in India will keep buying lots of products, which helps these businesses grow.
It also thinks the prices of these companies' shares could go higher in the future.
The best pick, Hindalco, could see its share price go up by almost half.
HSBC says many international money managers have not invested enough in India yet.
If more of them start investing, that could bring lots of new money into the country.
But share prices can also go down, so investing always has some risk.
That is why HSBC's advice is not a guarantee.
HSBC's India Equity Strategy report recommends 10 stocks across banking, autos, retail, healthcare, industrials, metals and real estate, with target prices implying upside potential of 8.5% to 46.8%.
Hindalco is HSBC's top pick with a 46.8% upside and a target price of Rs 1,430, as the brokerage named aluminium its preferred commodity.
HSBC says more than 80% of active global emerging market funds remain underweight on India, and a move to neutral positioning could bring around $25 billion of inflows.
73% of companies reporting June-quarter earnings met or exceeded expectations, while credit growth and auto demand continue to support the market.
HSBC prefers domestically focused sectors such as financials, autos, retail, hospitals and select industrials, citing resilient demand and improving earnings.
