00:00Hello and welcome. We are all anxiously waiting for the upcoming budget on July 23rd. And
00:09today we have here with us Kunal V. Prar, VP of Technical Research Choice Rookie. Hello
00:15Kunal.
00:16Hi Shruti.
00:17Kunal, my first question to you is, what is your overall expectations for the budget 2024?
00:25Exactly, the expectation from the budget is very high from the market and from the layman.
00:33But if you talk about particularly the specific expectation that the various sectors have
00:38been high expectation from the government, like salaried taxpayers are looking forward
00:43to significant income tax relief, so that you know, they will have some disposable income,
00:49more disposable income on their hand. If you talk about other potential changes, then you
00:53know, other sectors like defense sectors, infrastructure sectors, they're all expecting
01:01a good expectation from the budget. Corporate, they anticipate measure to enhance the ease
01:06of doing business and streamline regulations. Not only this, if you talk about manufacturing
01:12and service sectors, then they are expecting some reduction in compliance burden and simplified
01:18text structure and all. And further expectation is there from the budget. Now, they're expecting
01:23from the startups and SMEs, seek reduction in the compliance burden and more straightforward
01:29regulatory environment to foster innovation and growth. And yes, particularly if you talk
01:34about renewable energy sector that advocate for a reduction in the 12% GHG on renewable
01:39energy, we must to make compound more affordable and boost the industries. So these are the
01:44expectations that, you know, market and a few sectors are expecting from the budgets.
01:50Right. So if I had to ask you that, you know, what are your top picks before the budget,
01:57what would they be? Right now, I'm not suggesting any top picks, okay, because budget is there on
02:03this 23rd July to three days or three days to go. But if I talk about particularly on sector wise,
02:11then a few sectors are likely to be the biggest beneficiary of budget 2024,
02:18include infrastructure, defence and renewable energies. These sectors are expected to see
02:24significant positive movement. And in terms of specific stocks, I anticipate a good upside
02:29for infrastructure sectors and infra, L&T, HCC and NBCC are there. If we talk about defence,
02:37then BEL, Pulse Defence and HALs are there. And if you talk about renewable energy, then I think
02:43Adani Green would become, would be a beneficiary. So these are the stocks, you know, positioned
02:48well to benefit from the anticipated budget measures. Okay, okay. And see, the market is
02:56obviously, you know, after June 4th, it regained and you know, several times now, Nifty and Sensex
03:04has hit, they have hit all-time highs. So what is your prediction, your expectations for the
03:10second half of 2024 for Sensex and Nifty? Well, if you talk about the second half, then no doubt,
03:20Nifty has made its all-time high, Bank Nifty, Sensex all has made their all-time high.
03:24Now, if you talk about particularly on budgets reaction, particularly on market,
03:29if the budget meets investors' expectation, we could see a significant rally in the indices,
03:37Nifty potentially reaching to 25,000 and beyond. However, rather than speculating on specific
03:43level, it's more going to focus on cherry picking, particularly in terms of quality stocks. Okay,
03:49so no matter wherever Nifty will go after budget, now more focus would be on cherry picking,
03:55particularly on quality stocks, because that part only will give a good return in
04:01upcoming trading session. So this approach will better position us for long-term gains.
04:07Right, right. And one last question, Kunal, any measures that you expect from
04:14our Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, for the stock market or mutual funds?
04:21Well, two to three measures are there, which investors and mutual fund traders are expecting.
04:29Rising tax exemption bracket for LTC from 1 lakh to 3 lakhs would benefit investors. If this is
04:36not feasible, maintaining the current tax regime would help sustain market stability. Additionally,
04:42easing tax on mutual fund scheme, particularly debt mutual fund could significantly boost
04:47investors' confidence. So these are the changes or these are the implementations that, you know,
04:51investor and mutual fund investors are looking forward. Really, of course, of course. So,
04:56you know, populist or not, you know, stock market is very, very closely, it is going to watch the
05:04upcoming budget very, very closely. All investors and traders are very anxious and, you know,
05:10we are expecting a populist budget too. Thank you, Kunal, for joining us on the show today.
05:18That was Kunal Prar, VP of Technical Research, Choice Broking. Thank you, Kunal.
