'Strong Recovery' In Government Spending To Trigger Rally In Capex Themes
- Defence and roadways are expected to benefit from the 'strong recovery' in central government capital expenditure in the second half of the current fiscal, according to Emkay Global.
- Commercial vehicles, capital goods, and select infra financiers are the best ways to play this recovery, with Larsen & Toubro, HG Infra Engineering, Hitachi Energy, Voltamp Transformers, and Ashok Leyland being the top picks.
- The recent trend towards welfare spending by state governments is a headwind as it enforces the 3% limit on state fiscal deficits, leaving the central government to carry the burden of capital expenditure going forward.
