0601 GMT - India's building-materials sector is set to enjoy a strong revival in demand from FY 2026, Axis Securities' Eesha Shah says in a report. Large-scale government initiatives have spurred visible demand across segments like tiles, pipes, sanitaryware, and electricals, the analyst notes. Infrastructure-linked spending continues to drive demand for cement, steel, and pipes, while urban housing programs are supporting finish-material demand. The brokerage initiates coverage of Greenply Industries and Cera Sanitaryware with buy ratings and target prices of INR385.00 and INR8,500.00, respectively. Shares of Greenply and Cera are 4.5% higher at INR317.85 and 4.0% higher at INR6,769.15, respectively. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
