  • Smallcase Managers Bullish on Nifty 50 Hitting 30,000 by FY27-End
    May 23, 2026, 2:08 AM EDT. Despite a 9% decline this year, Smallcase managers project the Nifty 50 index to reach 28,000-30,000 by FY27-end, signaling a 15-25% upside. They expect the rally to be driven by earnings growth, not valuation gains, focusing on sustainable profitability, execution, and balance sheet strength. EPS estimates for Nifty and Sensex range between ₹1,280-₹1,320, with valuations at 22x-24x earnings. Key sectors driving growth include Banking, Capital Goods, Telecom, and domestic manufacturing. Defensive sectors like Pharma and FMCG may offer portfolio stability, while IT Services could recover gradually. Implementation of free trade agreements with the EU, US, and UK is expected to enhance export competitiveness and profitability.
