Takeaway

Earnings growth will moderate from 25% to 12-15%; focus on category leaders who can reinvest cash flows for above-GDP growth.

Summary

  • Interview with Ratish B Varier (19+ years fund manager experience) on adapting investing style for current sideways/volatile markets vs the easy 2019-2024 bull period
  • Explains 2019-24 returns: 25% earnings CAGR in smallcap/midcap, 14-15% largecap, driven by operating leverage and deleveraged corporate balance sheets
  • Warns the 20-25% earnings growth is over: India corporate balance sheets are fully deleveraged so no further interest cost benefit; nominal GDP/revenue growth will converge to 12-15%
  • Says valuations are still pricing in fancy earnings expectations, leading to sentiment correction over next 12-36 months
  • Advice: invest in category leaders who can reinvest accumulated cash flows in supply chain/forward sales to keep growing above nominal GDP
