It was full budget for some: 7 mid and smallcap stocks from fisheries, animal husbandry sector
While it was an interim budget with no change in taxation laws and many other parts, for some sectors it was literally a full budget. The reason, the announcements made for them were pretty similar to what has been done in the past when a full budget is presented. So, when an announcement about fisheries, animal husbandry or rural housing is made, the companies in the whole chain will get impacted in a similar manner had these announcements been made in a full budget. From an perspective of investing what needs to be realized is that in the last couple of years, there has been an effort on the policy level that other parts of the rural economy which are not agricultural related get the boost. Given the fact that it is not an easy task to change the rural income matrix, it might take some time for them to get reflected in the bottomline and not every company in the chain would be able to do it also.
