Sensex will hit 1 lakh mark in 5 years.
Chris Wood of global brokerage firm Jefferies has said that it will only be a matter of time before Sensex reaches the 100,000 level.
He assumes 15% EPS growth trend and a five-year average one-year forward PE multiple of 19.8x.
He also cited confidence in saying, like all long-term bull markets, the Indian stock market will continue to climb the proverbial wall of worry.
Nifty's one-year forward PE at 18x is only slightly above the 10-year average of 17.4x, while the Nifty PE premium to Asia ex-Japan at 42% is also near the 10-year average of 38%.
