Three Popular Toothpastes

By T.V. Antony Raj I am now 82 years old. My memory is failing. I can’t recall the names of people I knew when I was young, but I do remember the household items we used then.

At that time, powdered soap was not manufactured, so my mother never had the…

FMCG Stocks Shine Amid Market Downturn: A Beacon of Hope for Consumption Boost

In a surprising turn of events, Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) stocks have logged significant gains despite a broader market decline. On a day when both the Sensex and the Nifty 50 plummeted nearly 6%, key FMCG stocks like Dabur, Hindustan Unilever, and Colgate-Palmolive stood out with impressive gains.

Dabur Leads the Pack

Dabur Ltd. emerged as the top performer among FMCG stocks, with its share price soaring by 6.46% to Rs 580, marking its highest level since July of the previous year. This uptick reflects a growing optimism in the sector, driven by anticipated boosts in consumption.

FMCG Index Bucks the Trend

Overall, the Nifty FMCG index saw a 0.95% rise, defying the broader market trend. Hindustan Unilever Ltd. (HUL) surged by 5.78% to Rs 2,492.15, and Colgate-Palmolive India Ltd. climbed 4.53% to Rs 2,809. Other notable performers included Britannia Ltd. and Nestle India Ltd., both closing over 3% higher. However, ITC Ltd., with a substantial 33% weightage in the index, dipped slightly by 0.71% to Rs 419.85 by market close on June 4.

Political Climate and Consumption Boost

The political landscape has also played a role in this market behavior. The incumbent NDA’s expected return to power, albeit with a slimmer majority and the BJP losing its majority in the Lok Sabha, suggests that the new government might ramp up welfare policies. Analysts believe these measures could spur consumption, benefiting FMCG stocks.

Market Insights and Forecasts

Last month, Bernstein Research released a report suggesting that if the Opposition-led INDIA alliance gained seats in the general elections, consumption stocks could see short-term gains. The report highlighted that a return of the NDA would favor organized capex, while a shift in power might result in disordered growth but could boost consumption in the near term.

Bernstein’s scenarios placed the BJP’s seat count between 240–260 and the NDA’s between 270–290, aligning closely with the recent election results. This scenario could lead to increased focus on “freebies and possibly tax breaks,” potentially accelerating private consumption growth.

Inflation and Consumption Dynamics

Rising inflation has impacted consumption, particularly in rural areas, affecting the margins of FMCG giants. Bernstein’s report suggests that any policy shift towards freebies or tax breaks would likely not exacerbate inflation, as the government would manage inflationary pressures through measures like export bans and buffer stock releases.

Sector-Specific Outlook

Siddarth Bhamre, head of research at Asit C Mehta Investment Intermediates, noted that while profit booking might continue, FMCG and IT sectors could remain relatively stable due to defensive buying and valuation comfort. This stability offers some immunity from broader market corrections.

Industry Leaders’ Perspectives

Rohit Jawa, MD and CEO of Hindustan Unilever, emphasized that while government capex has driven GDP growth, its impact on rural consumer demand is yet to be felt. He anticipates a gradual recovery in rural consumption as the benefits of capex trickle down.

Jawa also stressed that Hindustan Unilever is not solely waiting for macroeconomic shifts but is actively transforming its business to target growth areas, focusing on urban consumption, which has been more resilient, particularly at the premium end.

Varun Berry, MD of Britannia Industries Ltd., echoed similar sentiments, expressing confidence that GDP growth would eventually translate into improved private consumption. He expects visible improvements in consumer demand by FY25, driven by the country’s robust gross fixed capital formation.

Conclusion

Amid a broader market downturn, FMCG stocks have provided a glimmer of hope, buoyed by expectations of increased consumption and strategic government policies. As the political and economic landscape evolves, the FMCG sector remains a critical area to watch for investors and analysts alike.

So far this earnings season, only one household-goods giant has been able to mutter the magic words that Wall Street wants to hear: volume growth.  Investors are no longer impressed with margin-defending price increases at consumer-staples titans such as Kimberly-Clark and Colgate-Palmolive. With room to keep hiking prices running out, they expect these will soon stop being a driver for overall revenue growth. That will put the onus on companies to start moving more units in contrast to the modest volume declines they have been seeing lately.  

OK it is pretty funny whenever the centrists say "Inflation can't be caused by greed or a conspiracy of manufacturers, purely impersonal market forces are the only possible reason" and then the Wall Street Journal repackages company investor reports saying "Oh yeah this is how well our scheming to raise prices has been going."
