Urbanisation is a story that plays out over decades. What is so special about urbanisation in India that we should take a one year or a two-year view on it and play it in the equity markets?

and that is actually quite an implication on the demand on infrastructure, real
estate and different kind of services.
Which sectors in India will you be
the most bullish on at this point in time?

low credit to the GDP and also mortgage loan to GDP ratio and there is an
undersupply of the diversified financial services in that sector and so we
believe there is a huge growth in this sector. Secondly, the infrastructure and
the capital goods sector because we see projects accelerating and also because
of the reform of the government, we are expecting the corporate capital

prospect for that sector. Read More
