India's defence sector will present an "ordering opportunity" worth $138 billion between 2023-24 (FY24) and FY32, said Nomura in a recent report.
The research and broking house has initiated coverage on two defence players Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) and Bharat Electronics (BEL) with a 'buy' rating. It sees an upside potential of 28 per cent and 32 per cent, respectively, for the two stocks from current levels. The sector is witnessing significant growth driven by increasing defence budgets, modernisation, and the government's Make in India initiative for indigenous manufacturing.
"India's strategic location in the geopolitically significant South Asian region makes defence a priority area for national security as it continues to strengthen its defence capabilities to address regional security challenges. Our bottom-up analysis presents an ordering opportunity worth $138 billion over FY24-32F (forecast) for defence manufacturing and production," wrote Nomura's Umesh Raut and Tanay Rasal in the report.
BEL, and Bharat Dynamics are some other defence-related stocks that have gained up to 50 per cent in CY24, according to ACE Equity data. In comparison, the S&P BSE Sensex has moved up 1.7 per cent.
