Capital Goods Stocks Outlook for the week – 21 to 25.03.2016
Seen in range; L&T shares may gain

Stocks of capital goods companies are seen trading in a range with a slight positive bias, as a short
week ahead may keep action in the stock markets under check.

L&T has remained out of limelight, owing to its relative underperformance vis-a-vis the benchmarks
over the last seven months. However, recent developments on the price front suggest a turnaround in
structure and provide a good risk-reward set-up for positional traders to ride the next up-move.
On Tuesday, Crompton Greaves demerged the consumer electrical division and the stocks now reflect only the power business of the company, which has resulted in a sharp drop in the share price.

Stocks of cooling products providers such as Blue Star and Voltas are also likely to rise in the short-tomedium term. With improving market share of (Blue Star) in northern region and an improved
product mix, the management sees 25% growth in room AC sales in value terms in FY17E (20% in
FY16) after a meeting with the Blue Star management.
