Nifty Outlook
Markets took a breather after the recent rebound and ended marginally lower in a lackluster session. After the initial uptick, the benchmark drifted gradually lower and traded range bound thereafter. However, movement on the broader market front kept the traders busy till the end. The broader indices outperformed the benchmark and gained in the range of 0.3%-0.7%. Among the sectors, healthcare, auto and telecom ended with gains whereas metal and power ended with losses.
The scheduled monthly expiry of December month derivatives contracts would keep the volatility high. The banking pack is still struggling and its performance would be critical for the next directional move. In absence of any event, updates on the COVID cases would remain on the participants’ radar. Keeping in mind the scenario, we suggest continuing with a stock-specific trading approach.

Investment Pick - Metropolis HealthcareLtd.
Incorporated in 1980, Metropolis Healthcare is one of the leading diagnostic players in India. Metropolis has spread its footprint across 19 states & 210 cities. It has a dominant share in the western and southern regions. It offers a comprehensive range of 4,000+ clinical laboratory tests. It also offers analytical and supports services to clinical research organisations for their clinical research projects.
The diagnostic industry is expected to register strong growth driven by multiple growth drivers. Within this space, we like Metropolis given its pan India presence, asset-light business model, strong brand equity, and wide range of tests. Further, a strong focus on increasing its B2C business and specialized testing would aid margin improvement. We thus raise our estimate for Metropolis and expect Revenue/ EBITDA/PAT to grow at 19.0%/18.9%/20.9% over FY21-24E. We recommend a Buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs. 3,867.
