Market looking at Q3 result season, Budget; not much movement likely in next 2-3 weeks: Harsha Upadhyaya

Kotak AMC's CIO, Harsha Upadhyaya, anticipates modest earnings growth in FY25, particularly in the second half.

While consumption remains weak, Upadhyaya favors IT and pharma over textiles due to cyclical uptrends and growth opportunities.
