So, the IPO is fully priced but looking at its brand positioning and robust omnichannel sales and distribution network with pan-India presence and sustained focus on design and product innovation, it looks good for a long term horizon.

Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL) is very good stock to hold for long-term investors and I am presenting a thesis on it which is as follows: ·        Its fundamentals are very strong and impressive which can be understood from the following points:   Ø   It is a debt free company. Ø   It has delivered a good profit growth of 24.10% CAGR over last 5 years. Ø   It has been maintaining a healthy dividend payout ratio of 42.69%. Ø   It has a healthy Cash from Operations. Ø   It has a healthy ROE and ROCE of more than 20%. Ø   It has a very healthy Operating and PAT Margins of 75.51% and 58.55% respectively as per the financials of F.Y. 2020-21. ·       The penetration to equity markets in India is still very low as roughly about 3% of India’s population invests in equity markets as compared to 55% in US, which suggests that there’s lots of headroom for India’s stock marketplace penetration to grow. This gives CDSL a great opportunity to grow and benefit fro

Companies with low carbon emission and low contributors to pollution rank better than others.  (ii) What are the activities that the company perform in terms of social development? This includes focus on human rights, gender equality and many such social factors. Companies that contribute more

WHAT ARE DEFENSIVE INDUSTRIES?

These are industries that create products and services that have low income elasticity i.e., a fall or rise in income does not affect the demand significantly. Therefore, these industries experience minimal impact on account of economic cycles. Rather, their business prospects are affected only by secular trends. Food, agricultural inputs, healthcare and pharmaceutical are some of the industries that come under this category. The defensiveness of this industry is the reason why analysts generally suggest to shift to the defensives during a equity market correction.
