"The result season has started well, giving encouraging signs. The vaccination drive is progressing well. Also, the global cues have been positive with the expectation of a large fiscal push in the USA. The overall sentiment is quite bullish. We expect that the market will now take its next major cue from the budget. The multiple expansion driven returns will ease out and returns will be linked more to growth from here on," said Mohit Ralhan, Managing Partner & CIO, TIW Private Equity.
