ITC, Swiggy, Eternal, HUL, Dabur, Marico shares: BNP Paribas sees up to 47% upside; target prices
ITC is in focus.
· Business Today Mkts
Among FMCG names, BNP Paribas sees the highest upsides in ITC Ltd, Dabur India Ltd, Britannia Industries Ltd and Hindustan Unilever Ltd.
The analysis
ITC reported movement of 47%. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is -3.8% on the day at ₹255.50, and has returned -9.4% over three months. It sits 39% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The fmcg sector has moved -4.2% over the same period, so ITC is running 5.2 points behind its peers.
For ITC, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the fmcg peer set alongside it.
Market context
- The company directly in focus is ITC.
- Sector exposure: FMCG.
