Subject: Don't chase defence stocks on sentiment; focus on fundamentals and export potential: Ashish Gupta
"There are the few companies that will probably benefit from higher defence spending in India and globally and there we see larger upside, but I would not kind of say that it is a broad rush approach that you should take towards the sector," says Ashish Gupta, CIO, Axis Mutual Fund.


But we do note that defence as a theme you have been liking for quite some time now. But given the tensions that we are hearing and we are covering as well, do you believe it is once again time to look out for some of these defence counters? What is the current view looking like?
Ashish Gupta: So, as we spoke about earlier, one should not really trade based on sentiment. Yes, definitely many of these companies, their outlook is good, their order books are ful ..

So, I do not think people should react to this news and look at this sector. We saw similar reaction happened when many European countries started talking about increasing their defence spending and defence stocks globally including India rerated, but the fact is that very few defence companies in India either export to Europe or even have excess capacity to be able to export. So, one has to be careful in terms of distinguishing the sentiment versus the facts.

There are the few companies that will probably benefit from higher defence spending in India and globally and there we see larger upside, but I would not kind of say that it is a broad rush approach that you should take towards the sector.
