5-year period over the past two decades. In India, more than half (54%) of the NSE
500 (269 stocks) generated 10-bagger returns, the largest proportion of multibaggers
among the 10 markets (vs. 30%/20% averages for EM/DM). The 269 multibagger
stocks all share a number of the following traits: 1) high realized growth rates; 2)
high capital return ratios; 3) mid/small-cap bias; 4) inexpensive starting valuations; 5)
domestic sector orientation; and 6) high promoter holding.

Investing in India’s medium-term growth story


In India, the domestic macro environment appears stable given peak inflation/rates

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
and manageable current account. Activity has been improving and recent quarterly
earnings have been better-than-expected, supporting our mid-teen earnings growth
expectations over the next 2 years. We think resilient macro and improving micro
environment is conducive for strong medium-term growth and recommend investors
to build exposure in India, focusing on pockets of the markets that offer strong future
growth prospects. We highlight 10 broad growth themes and 30 domestic
sub-industries that offer high revenue/earnings growth over the coming 2-3 years.

India offers compelling long-term beta and outsized alpha opportunities

At its core, the investment case for Indian equities has been the potential to deliver
higher returns than many of its emerging and developed market peers, given its higher
growth potential, supported, among other things, by favorable demographics, ongoing
reforms, and formalization of the economy with increased digitalization.

India’s economic growth has generally been strong over the past two decades.
India’s economy has grown 7-fold in the past two decades, from about half a trillion US
dollars at the end of 2002 to about US$3.4tn currently. While there has been some
cyclical growth slowdown in years preceding the Covid-19, followed by pandemic impact
in recent years, India has delivered a nominal GDP CAGR of 10% over the past two
decades between 2002 and 2022, second only to China and surpassing most other
Asian and developed market peers. Looking forward, our economists forecast that
India’s economy can grow at potential growth of 6.7% real GDP over the next 10 years
(vs. 6.4% CAGR over the past 2 decades), with India becoming a US$5tn economy by
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

2026 (see Discovering India’s potential).

Capital market growth and realized equity returns have matched strong economic
performance over the long term. India’s aggregate equity market capitalization has
risen twelve-fold since 2003. The average market capitalization to GDP ratio has
increased by 11pp, from 76% in the previous decade (2003-2012) to 87% in the recent
decade (2013-22), suggesting ongoing capital market development. The realized
long-term equity returns at the headline index level have also been compelling.
Over the past two decades, NIFTY 50 and the broader BSE 200 index have offered
15-16% annualized returns in local currency, and 12-13% in USD terms, almost double
the 7% offered by the MSCI EM index. The 20-year USD annualized return for India has
also led major equity markets globally (US, Europe, Japan and Asian peers), although the
US markets have fared better in the recent decade, given superior earnings delivery, as

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
we have discussed in our recent Global Strategy Paper (see The Asian earnings enigma).

Moreover, Indian markets have offered outsized alpha opportunities. In addition to a


strong track record of delivering long-term beta via a simple buy-and-hold index strategy,
the equity market in India has offered outsized stock returns and alpha opportunities for
EM investors. Over the past two decades, about 60% of the current BSE 200 stocks
would have outperformed the benchmark. Nearly 40% of the current BSE 200 stocks
have generated more than 20% annualized returns over the past two decades,
double the 20% of stocks for broader MSCI EM.

Given the strong historical track record of outsized alpha in India, we delve into
multibagger stocks, specifically focusing on stocks that have delivered at least 10x
returns and study their common traits in the subsequent section.

India has delivered the highest proportion of multibaggers

In order to better understand the drivers behind generating outsized returns in the stock
market, we examine the multibagger stocks in India and other key markets globally over
the past decade, similar to the methodology used for the China equity markets by our
China strategists (see Finding the next multibaggers in China: When “Little” becomes
“Giant”).

Specifically, we analyze 10 markets across EM and DM, covering about 6700 stocks
over the past two decades and focus on stocks that were “10-baggers” and able to
generate at least 10x total returns in their local currency within a 5-year rolling
period (monthly since 2000). For the rest of the report, we use the generic term
“multibagger” interchangeably for such 10-bagger stocks.

n About a quarter of the stocks were multibaggers; EM outpaced DM. Out of the
universe of 6700 stocks, about 1500 stocks (23%) were able to generate at least 10x
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

total returns within a 5-year rolling period since 2000. The six EM markets in our
study (India, Korea, Brazil, South Africa, China and Taiwan) on average had 30% of
their local benchmark stocks generating 10-bagger returns. The 4 DM markets (US,
Japan, Europe and Australia) on average had only 20% of the stocks delivering
multibagger returns. We show detailed distribution of these 1500+ multibagger
stocks by years across these 10 markets in the Appendix (Exhibit 35).
n India has delivered the highest proportion of multibagger stocks. More than
half – about 269 out of the NSE 500 stocks (54%) – have generated over 10x
returns, within a 5-year rolling period since 2000, the largest proportion of
multibaggers among the 10 global markets covered in our study. As a comparison,
China (MSCI China) and Taiwan (TWSE) markets had only 18% while US (SPX) and
Japan (Topix) had 16% stocks generating 10-bagger returns, one-third of the
proportion of the stocks in India. We include a list of the 269 multibaggers in India in

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
the Appendix at the end of the report (Exhibit 36 and Exhibit 37).
n Multibaggers in India have generated median peak returns of 24x. Within the 10
markets, it took 52 months (on a median basis) for these 1500 stocks to reach the
10x threshold, achieving a total return of 16x when they hit the peak price levels
during their respective 5-year (or shorter) outperformance window. In the case of
India, it took 54 months on average and the stocks delivered 24x median
returns, 1.5x the median across the 10 markets and second highest after Australia
(which delivered slightly higher 25x median returns).

Common traits of multibaggers

We take a closer look at the 269 multibaggers in India over the past two decades and
observe the following common characteristics among them:

1) Growth – High realized sales and profit growth


Multibagger stocks have exhibited high revenue and earnings growth. About 60% of the
multibaggers managed to generate at least 20% revenue growth and at least 30% profit
growth during their outperformance periods. The median sales CAGR was 25%, while
the median profit CAGR was 37%. This reinforces the core investing principle that
earnings growth is the fundamental driver of long-term equity returns. Moreover, 80%
of the multibaggers have seen a margin increase during their outperformance periods,
likely reflecting high efficiency of the businesses and high pricing power, in our view.

2) Capital allocation – High return ratios


Multibagger stocks are also efficient capital allocators and exhibit high return ratios. A
majority of the multibaggers generated ROE (Return on equity) and Cash ROIC (Cash
return on invested capital) in excess of 15% during their outperformance periods. About
three-fourths of the multibagger stocks had increasing ROEs.

3) Size – Small/mid-cap bias


Smaller companies (in terms of market cap and initial share in profit pool) implies larger
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

headroom for growth and a favorable low base effect for stock returns, all else being
equal. Consequently, smaller companies with rapid growth rates are more likely to
become multibaggers. We note that about half of the multibaggers in India had an
initial market cap of less than US$50mn. While market cap categorizations and
thresholds vary over time, about 70% of the multibaggers belonged in the bottom 250
of the NSE 500 constituents in their initial year (typically small caps) and only 12%
belonged in Top 100 NSE 500 constituents (large caps), suggesting multibaggers
historically have been dominated by small and midcap stocks.

4) Sector tilt – Domestic cyclicals concentration


Sectorally, domestic cyclical sectors (investment and consumer cyclicals) have produced
the largest number of multibaggers (54%). Specifically, cement, chemicals, capital
goods and consumer durables and retail have seen the largest number of multibaggers.
While some multibaggers also belonged to non-domestic sectors (IT/exporters,
commodity cyclicals), the majority of the multibaggers were from domestic cyclical
sectors in 70% of the years over the past two decades. This suggests a strong tilt
towards domestic cyclicals, across multiple periods historically.

5) Inexpensive starting valuations


About 70% of the stocks in our universe either traded at less than 1x LTM P/B ratio or
below 10x NTM P/E before they eventually became multibaggers. The “low starting
valuation” of multibaggers however seems to be correlated to prevailing broad market
valuations. About 60% of the multibaggers took off during market crisis periods of
2001-2002 (dot com crisis), 2008-09 (GFC), 2013 (taper tantrum concerns) and 2020
(Covid-19 shock). This suggests that external crises/shocks or low prevailing market
valuations have offered good entry points historically for picking multibaggers. This also
partly explains why the previous decade (2002-12) produced more multibaggers than the
recent decade (2013-22).

companies have either traded at less than 1x LTM P/B ratio or below 10x NTM P/E ratio

6) High promoter holding


On average within the multibagger companies, promoters held a majority equity stake
(58%), while institutional investors had a relatively smaller ownership of 23% at the
start of the multibagger period. In terms of the distribution, about 60% of the
multibaggers had promoters as the majority shareholders (> 50% holding) at the start
(before the stocks took off).

Summary of our 6-factor multibagger framework


We acknowledge that the above six characteristics are not exhaustive and there are
likely to be other unobservable or hard to quantify factors (such as competitive
advantage, quality of management, etc.) that also contribute to the strong returns.
However, all 269 historical multibagger stocks in India over the past two decades
share at least one of the above 6 traits, and about 75% of them share at least 4
traits.

Among the six factors, Size, Promoter holding, Growth, and Valuations have been

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
comparatively more dominant factors, while Sector and Capital allocation appear to be
less influential in identifying multibaggers. However, on all of these 6 characteristics, the
multibagger stocks on a median basis compare favorably than the broader NSE 500.

Risks: Drawdown risks are manageable, but active risk management is required
While India has historically offered superior multibagger peak returns (24x median
total returns vs. 16x for the overall 1500 multibagger stocks across 10 markets), we
acknowledge that stocks don’t go up in a straight line and often investors are likely to
face drawdowns on the road to multibagger returns, particularly given the small-mid cap
dominance among multibagger stocks, which is usually associated with higher price
volatility.

In order to quantify the mark-to-market pain if investors were to hold their positions
through time, we look at how frequent and deep the drawdowns have been historically.
More specifically, we calculate maximum drawdown for each of the 1500 global
multibagger stocks in local currency, during the 5-year rolling period covered in the study
since 2000. We note three specific observations:

n First, the 269 multibagger stocks in India have seen a median drawdown of about
31%, which is in line with the overall median for the 1500 global stocks, and in terms
of ranking, India stacks up as the middle of the pack.
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

n Second, while the median drawdowns in case of India don’t sound excessive
compared to the 24x median returns, the worse case returns could be as bad as
90% drawdown, for specific stocks highlighting the inherent mark-to-mark risk.
However, only 12% of the multibaggers had maximum drawdowns > 50%,
suggesting the left tail risks have historically been small.

n Lastly, looking at the annual frequency of occurrence of drawdowns, we note that


most years in the past two decades have seen stock drawdowns, suggesting the
inherent idiosyncratic drawdown risk, which might be less correlated to
worsening macro environment or global crisis/shocks.

Moreover, there could be another more fundamental risk if valuations (as the
multibaggers take off) become stretched, or even worse, if operating performance of

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
the stock deteriorates, which could be trigger points for harvesting gains. While we
haven’t explored the characteristics of multibagger peaks in this report, history suggests
that it has taken 52 months (more than 4 years) on a median basis for stocks to reach
their peak, suggesting a long runway for growth. However, we acknowledge the need
for active position/risk management for these small/mid-cap multibaggers during
the course of delivering their outsized returns.

Investing in India’s medium-term growth story

We are constructive on Indian equities and have been recommending medium-term


investors to build exposure in India over coming months on any market weakness. The
domestic macro environment has been stable given peaking inflation/hiking cycle and
manageable current account, supported by strong services exports and robust
remittances. Activity has been improving, corporate earnings have been tracking
better-than-expected based on 1Q reporting season and expected to rise 17% for
full-year in 2023 and another 15% next year and valuations have adjusted.

We think the stable macro and improving micro environment creates a runway for
strong medium-term growth for India. As such, investors should focus on
industries/pockets of the market that offer strong growth opportunities over the
medium-term and then distill the broad themes into targeted stock ideas, leveraging the
insights from the historical multibagger study.
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

To identify structural themes that are likely to have strong future growth prospects, we
use three different approaches:

1. Themes with explicit policy support: We continue to like the structural theme of
Make-in-India driven by the Indian government’s production-linked incentives (PLI)
schemes that seek to expand India’s manufacturing base and benefit from
incremental supply chain redeployment from China. Various industries related to
energy transition (Solar, EV, Battery), import substitution (Large scale Electronics,
IT hardware, Telecom & Networking Products, and White Goods, API) and traditional
export industries are exposed to the PLI schemes and likely to benefit from this
broader theme. See “Make-in-India” reports for details (Kick-starting growth engines
with PLIs, Exploring the 14 Production Linked Incentive Schemes, Stock implications
from PLI schemes). Additionally, the government has continued to focus on capital

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
expenditure in recent years (on railways, roads, highways, defense) and so we see
‘Capex cyclicals’ (Infrastructure, E&C, and allied industries: transportation, logistics,
cement) to be the primary beneficiaries (see Indian equities: Time to accumulate;
Buy Quality at Reasonable Price for latest views and themes).
2. Key growth areas based on macro/sector trends: Based on the key macro trends
and leveraging the work of our sector analysts, we compile a list of 10 key growth
areas in India. The overarching themes include Energy security / self-sufficiency;
import substitution and supply chain security (under the broader Make-in-India
initiatives); pick up in manufacturing and capex cycle; still large growth headroom
in select consumption sectors like QSR (supported by drivers such as rising
disposable incomes, urbanization and favorable demographics) and high income
consumption; digitalization of consumption and services (across digital
payments, food delivery and online travel), formalization of credit, financialization of
household savings and healthcare services. Although this list is not exhaustive, it
does give a specific indication of where attractive growth opportunities may lie,
especially for investors with a medium-term outlook. We include links to many of our
sector analysts’ industry reports for investors who wish to explore specific themes

1 June 2023 14

in greater detail (see Appendix II).


3. High growth domestic industries: Given the positive fundamental linkages
between the equity market industries indices and economic growth, we use a
top-down approach to screen out economically sensitive domestic industries that
are expected to offer strong growth over coming years:
o We start with CNX 500 stocks and organize them according to their GICS-4
sub-industries (105 sub-industries in total), the most granular industry level
based on MSCI sector classification.
o We then filter out sub-industries with two or fewer stocks, which leaves us
with 59 sub-industries.
o Within these 59 sub-industries, we screen for sub-industries that are
expected to either deliver more than 15% revenue or earnings growth over
the next 3-years (2023-2025 CAGR), resulting in 42 sub-industries.
o Finally, we run correlation analysis to further screen for sub-industries which
have exhibited high revenue growth correlation (for non-financials) and
For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

earnings growth correlation (for financials) with GDP/economic growth, with


an implicit view that these sub-industries should be able to capture the strong
economic growth in India, resulting in 30 sub-industries. These 30
sub-industries together account for roughly 35% of current earnings and 40%
of CNX 500 market cap.

Exhibit 28 shows our top-down approach to identify high growth domestically-sensitive


sub-industries, while Exhibit 29 shows the final sectoral/ sub-industry lists.

Introducing our GS India Largecap Compounders; Midcap Multibaggers


baskets

We think Indian equities could be a major source of potential alpha generation in the
years to come for investors, given the market’s strong historical track record and the
runway for strong growth ahead. At the sector level, we continue to favor domestic
cyclicals over global cyclicals in India and remain overweight banks and investment
cyclicals (industrials, cement). Additionally, we continue to like themes of Quality at
Reasonable Price (QARP), Capex recovery and Make-in-India.

For clients looking at taking medium-term exposure in India, across a broader set of
domestic sectors, to capture the ‘India growth story’, we have constructed two baskets:
1) Largecap Compounders; and 2) Midcap Multibaggers.

Largecap Compounders (GSINLCCP)


For the exclusive use of RAJIV.NIHALANI@AMUNDI.COM

We screen for large cap stocks (with market capitalization > US$5bn) from key growth
sectors (30 high growth domestic sub-industries + sub-industries from 10 key growth
themes) that are likely to offer strong revenue/earnings growth over the next few years
(3-year – 2023-25 revenue or earnings CAGR > 15%), have high and improving ROEs
and are trading at reasonable valuations (fwd. PEG ratio < 3). The resultant basket of 25
stocks is tiered float-cap weighted (based on listed market cap), where the weight of
any given stock is capped at 6%, and offers a balanced composition across the three
broad domestic sectors of Financials (~30%), Manufacturing and investments (30%)
and Consumption (~40%).

Our ‘GS India Largecap Compounders’ basket (GSINLCCP) has a median market cap of
US$15bn and a minimum accessible liquidity of about US$185mn/day. In terms of
fundamental ratios, the basket trades at 22x 2024 P/E, and offers expected sales

dac614a904c142979db0196573a6bece
growth of 17% and earning growth of 26% CAGR over the next 3 years
(2023-2025), suggesting an attractive growth/valuation profile.

Our backtest shows that the Largecap Compounders basket has outperformed the
largecap NIFTY index by 10pp over the past 1-year and 15pp since 2020.

Midcap Multibaggers (GSINMCMB)


Leveraging the insights from the historical multibagger study, we also screen for Midcap
stocks (market capitalization between US$1-5bn) from key growth sectors (30 high
growth domestic sub-industries + sub-industries from 10 key growth themes), that
satisfy at least 4 out of the 6 multibagger criteria laid out in the previous sections.

The resultant basket of 35 stocks is tiered float-cap weighted (based on listed market
cap), where the maximum weight of any given stock is capped at 7%. About 80% of
the sector weights are concentrated in consumer discretionary, materials and industrial
sectors.

Our ‘GS India Midcap Multibaggers’ basket (GSINMCMB) has a median market cap of
US$3bn and a minimum accessible liquidity of over US$60mn/day.

In terms of fundamental ratios, the basket generates 18% ROE and offers expected
sales growth of 20% and earning growth of 38% CAGR over the next 3 years. While the
basket trades at expensive valuation of 32x 2024 P/E, median fwd. PEG ratio appears
