Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elara Securities expects India’s retail sector to post 11.8% revenue growth in Q2 FY27, led by value retail, footwear and innerwear, while apparel may weaken as festive purchases shift to the next quarter. The brokerage favours Metro Brands, Campus Activewear and Vishal Mega Mart, which fits the pattern of low-priced everyday categories holding up better than discretionary fashion. Other brokerages back parts of this view, with HDFC Securities rating Metro Brands ADD with a target of Rs 1,030 and Motilal Oswal and HSBC rating Vishal Mega Mart Buy with targets of Rs 135 and Rs 153. The festive shift makes Q2 numbers look soft, so retail stocks are really a test of Q3 demand, and Elara’s own price targets were not available to me.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Retail stocks have been among the weaker groups this year, with Metro Brands down about 34% and Vishal Mega Mart down about 30% over a year according to the reports below. That is why the Elara call is getting attention just before the Q2 results season.<\/p>\n

This guide covers what Elara expects for retail stocks in Q2 FY27, why the festive shift matters, how each of the three picks looks, valuation, risks and what to watch when results arrive.<\/p>\n
