Many times the word, defensive stocks is used on the street. Most of the time it is FMCG, pharma and others which are referred to as defensive stocks. The reason being that the demand for these companies is steady and is not impacted much even when there is any slowdown in an economy. The question is in an economy which is growing faster and new areas of consumption are coming up every second day, where the demand from being seasonal and cyclical has reached a stage where in all economic conditions it stays above single digit, shouldn't those also be considered as defensive and valued accordingly. Probably the Indian economy has reached a stage where the demand for tiles, ceramic and home building products, ex-cement has reached a level where in worst cases it will not go below a point.
