Sandip Sabharwal, a prominent market analyst, sees significant investment opportunities in select private banks, particularly Axis Bank and ICICI Bank, which he believes are undervalued. He highlights the potential impact of the FCNR(B) deposit schemes, suggesting that an influx of approximately ₹5 lakh crore could alleviate deposit growth concerns for banks. In the IT sector, Sabharwal notes that stocks are technically oversold, with a projected upside of 12-15% despite short-term growth pressures from AI disruptions. He recommends Bharti Airtel as the sole investable telecom stock, dismissing Vodafone as structurally unfit for profitability. Sabharwal expresses particular caution regarding the Zepto IPO, which has filed for a valuation of ₹73,000 crore (around $7 billion), questioning the company's pathway to profitability and advising investors to be wary of high valuations of domestic loss-makers compared to international IPOs like SpaceX.
