According to BoB Capital, "Weakness in the FMEG business and a volatile commodity environment remain challenges in the near term, but a resilient performance in W&C is auguring well for the company. We remain positive on Polycab given its leadership position in the core W&C business and a growing FMEG segment that has structural growth opportunities from infrastructure development. We alter our FY23/FY24 EPS estimates by +6%/-5% to bake in the Q3 print. On rolling valuations over to Dec'24E, our TP remains at Rs 3,300, based on an unchanged 35x P/E. BUY."
