Market Outlook

Mahesh Nandurkar of CLSA told CNBC-TV18 that earnings growth for CLSA's coverage in Q4FY19 was 36 percent YoY as the low base of losses in the financial sector kicked in.

He said earnings missed estimates for half the stocks and also resulted in FY20 earnings downgrades for a similar number.

"Select banks, IT, cement companies, capital goods/power and property had a positive tone to results. Sectors on the weaker side include autos, staples, and pharma," he added.
