A directional view at the sector level is the appropriate framing,” the analyst said.Dasani then applied this framework to each segment. He noted that the steel cycle has a constructive structural setup with the capex revival, China stabilisation, and domestic capacity discipline supporting margins, which explains the relative outperformance on debut. “Aluminium sits in a balanced setup, where the structural story is intact but a meaningful share of the bull case has been priced in pre-listing; the correction is largely a valuation reset rather than a structural concern,” he addedPower is the most defensive of the four, with regulated returns offering stability but limited upside, and the modest price action fits that profile, according to the analyst.
