Expert View: Selective buying under the shell of Homruz & supply constraints, says Vinod Nair | Stock Market News
Markets have corrected, but corporate earnings still look strong. The real worry is oil. Crude has climbed near $95, and every $10 per barrel rise could widen India's current account deficit by 0.35% of GDP and push inflation up 20–30 basis points. Q1 GDP grew 7.8%, beating RBI's estimate, but oil and supply chain risks may dominate Q2-Q3.
Key Statutory Highlights
- Sensex is down 10.25% this year but up 3.66% in the last three months.
- Every $10 per barrel increase in oil could widen India's current account deficit by about 0.35% of GDP and raise inflation by 20–30 basis points.
- India's Q1 GDP grew 7.8% against the RBI's 7.0% projection.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Watch oil prices and global bond yields. If crude stays high for a full quarter, sectors like paints, tyres, aviation, and oil marketing companies may face pressure. Reassess exposure there.
