The banking industry is rerated by Morgan Stanley, and some stocks might rise by 41%.
The bank stock rise doesn’t seem to be coming to an end anytime soon. That much can be deduced, at least, from the way analysts are upgrading some bank stocks, increasing their price targets and profit projections.
The second leg of the rerating cycle has now begun, according to Morgan Stanley, after it rerated the entire banking industry. Indian banks look to be in a transitional phase between the two legs of the bank stock rerating cycle, the brokerage company noted in a report dated September 6.
The stock prices have already reflected the effects of the first leg. The Nifty Bank index, a gauge of the banking industry, has increased by over 11% so far this year, outpacing the 1.56 percent increase in the much larger Nifty.

As the company claims to have manufactured gas turbines for INS Vikrant, Hindustan Aeronautics achieves a 52-week high.
On September 7, shares of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) increased by more than 2% after the firm disclosed that it has built and tested the gas turbines utilised in the recently commissioned aircraft carrier IAC-1 Vikrant.
IAC-1 Vikrant, which was just commissioned as INS Vikrant by the Prime Minister in Kochi, is India’s first aircraft carrier that was developed and built entirely domestically. HAL is happy to be affiliated with it. Four General Electric LM2500 gas turbines from HAL are used to power IAC.
The company claims that these gas turbines were put together and tested at Bangalore’s special HAL facility. HAL completed crucial tasks to get the IAC ready for basin experiments. In the absence of foreign OEM officials, HAL’s crew actively participated in the integration of the power plant to the IAC and remained aboard the IAC for all sea trials, significantly advancing the Make-in-India philosophy.
Analysts advise investors to wake up and leave despite DreamFolks Services’ dreamy launch.
Airport lounge service firm DreamFolks Services experienced a perfect IPO, with shares trading at a premium of 56% over expectations. However, some feel that it is now appropriate to book profits.
Due to DreamFolk’s market share of roughly 95% and its dominant position in the industry, the initial public offering (IPO) had attracted a lot of attention.
The company is currently trading at 150.46x FY22 price to earnings (PE), which according to Amarjeet Maurya, associate vice president of mid caps at Angel One, gives limited potential for growth. Investors who purchased shares, he continued, should book profits right now. It appears that some investors have begun to record profits. The stock is currently trading roughly 5% below the listing price while still holding onto the majority of its gains.
