FPIs: These FPI favourites still have room to offer upside of over 20%

Valuations of Indian equities have been at elevated levels but that hasn’t stopped global funds from accumulating stocks here in recent months.

Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) have consistently increased their stakes in about 40 companies such as ITC, Raymond and Karnataka Bank among others in the past six quarters, according to data compiled by ET.

They have also been buying stocks like CMS Info Systems, City Union Bank, HAL, AU Small Finance, and Chennai Petroleum. Most of the stocks in which FPIs have increased their stakes have rallied in the past year.

As per analyst consensus estimates compiled by Bloomberg, there might still be room for upside in some of these stocks. FPIs’ favorites stocks, like CMS Info Systems, City Union Bank, Raymond, Spandana Sphoorty, Aptus Value Housing, are expected to give returns of over 20% in a year, according to Bloomberg consensus estimates.
