"Nifty Universe's EBITDA/PAT growth are well above expectations. Out of 37 Nifty companies that have reported earnings till 4th Nov'20, 21 have beaten EBITDA margins (excl.estimates while 7 have missed expectations. Financials) expanded 390bp YoY to 18.5%. Operating margins expanded for every sector on YoY basis," Motilal Oswal has said in a release.

For corporate America likely increase in the tax burden, regulation and labour costs may dampen the margins, but a good demand environment will offset some of these pressures. Global inflation and consequent weaker dollar should be positive for Emerging Markets like India.
