Mumbai Citi has downgraded India to underweight, citing persistent macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges alongside weaker earnings projections. The brokerage anticipates an 11.7 upside for the Nifty, reaching 27,000. While acknowledging lighter market positioning, Citi's earnings forecasts for FY27-28 are still factoring in the Iran War's impact.
Banks, telecom, defence, and pharma are favored sectors.
