Elara Capital has set an ambitious target for the Nifty, projecting a rise to 30,000 levels by March 2027, representing a 17% upside from the current closing level of 25,666 as of Wednesday. According to the brokerage, a likely earnings rebound will fuel this surge. Elara’s investment strategy is focused on specific sectors showing potential for growth, including consumption, premiumization themes, and select financial and oil stocks. The brokerage is particularly bullish on NBFCs, private banks, and oil marketing companies, driven by favorable conditions like soft crude oil prices and expanding refining margins.
