Punit Patni, Equity Research Analyst, Swastika Investmart:

The strong results of Accenture Inc. have alleviated the market’s fear of growth slowdown in IT companies. The management commentary has been positive and highlights that the robust demand trajectory is still intact. 

This is positive for Indian IT companies as there was an expectation of subdued future growth due to the possibility of a hard landing post the severe rate hikes by central banks globally leading to a deterioration of purchasing power of businesses and curtailment of IT spending. 

However, supply-side issue like employee attrition and wage inflation persists. We are positive about IT companies from a longer-term perspective and the current correction provides a good entry point.

KRChoksey View on Vinati Organics:

We expect growth momentum in the business prospect of Vinati Organics to continue with a substantial increase in its recent capacity expansion plans in ATBS segment. 

Its focus on increasing the Butyl phenol business with entry into new products through its wholly owned subsidiary Veeral Organics Pvt Ltd will further help it penetrate across sectors. 

We continue to remain optimistic with our ‘BUY’ recommendation and apply P/E multiple of 43x to its FY24E earnings, with same target price of Rs 2,349 per share as we believe most of the recently announced capacities will start contributing significantly from FY25.
