 "Stay defensive in Indian stocks, advises UBS")
UBS has advised investors to stay defensive in Indian stocks, and argued that the valuations for the Nifty at 12.9 times 1-year forward “are not cheap.”
After having looked at its model portfolio, the investment bank has remained “overweight” on consumers, pharmaceuticals and defensive power stocks; UBS is neutral on IT stocks and “underweight” on autos, banks, cements, materials, and oil & gas.
