ICICI Securities Lists 2 Multibagger Stocks To Buy From Cement Sector Showing Return Potential

ICICI Securities has listed preffered stock picks from cement sector with good return potential. These stocks are JK Cement Ltd and Ultratech Cement Ltd. If you buy these 2 stocks now at the current market price, you can get potential 29% return.

According to the analyst, "Our checks suggest price hikes in the range of Rs10-15/bag in west and east India and Rs20-25/bag in south India in Dec'22. Further, on the cost front, domestic petcoke prices have declined 6% MoM in Dec'22 while the average imported petcoke price in Nov'22 was US$188/te (CIF), down 3% MoM. Favourable construction season augurs well and will likely provide impetus for price hikes in Q4FY23E. UTCEM and JKCE are our top picks. Key risks: Cost escalations and pricing weakness."
