On gold financial companies & MCX: “The best ways to play the rising gold prices is through the gold financial companies. On the existing loans the loan-to-value (LTV) improves, so the delinquencies come down, the asset quality improves. But for the newer growth as well with the same gold volumes are the quantity; now you can lend much more, so the lending propensity increases.

So, overall, positive from a gold financing company. Another way to play is through the commodity Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX). There also the gold volumes, precious commodities volumes have been there, and I think that would continue to do a positive effect on MCX as well.”

On Eternal: “Overall, near term, driven by the higher investments. The stock could remain a bit softer, given the run up that it has already seen, but the long-term growth story continues to remain intact. We have a buy rating and a target price of Rs 410.”
