Experts are of the view that the recovery in the broader market space is underway and there is a higher possibility that mid & smallcap stocks could outperform the largecaps in the near future.

“We believe that the broader market recovery is underway and expect an improved performance from midcaps. Our study of past market corrections indicate that midcaps outperform largecaps in the later stages of market recovery,” Elara Capital said in a report.

The brokerage further added that the weight distribution is more diverse in the midcap index relative to Nifty and is favourably disposed towards pharma, healthcare services, auto and industrials which they believe augurs well for its outperformance amid favorable price support and valuations, added the note.

Karur Vysya Bank which fell by about 40 percent and Birlasoft which rallied 70 percent so far in 2020 have reported strong earnings in the June quarter.

Last month Karur Vysya Bank (KVB) reported a healthy 45 percent jump in the net profit at Rs 105.50 crore in the first quarter of the current fiscal on fall in bad loans.

Asset quality improved, with gross non-performing assets (NPAs) falling to 8.34 percent of gross advances as on June 30, 2020, from 9.17 percent a year ago.

Birlasoft hit a fresh 52-week high in August after the company reported a nearly 35 percent rise in consolidated net profit for Q1 FY21. Birlasoft is a part of the $2 billion diversified C K Birla Group.

The company posted a profit of Rs 41.8 crore for April-June 2019, Birlasoft said in a regulatory filing. Revenue from operations grew 17.7 percent to Rs 914.6 crore in the period under review from Rs 777.2 crore in the year-ago period.
