What is the expert advice?
According to fund manager Siddharth Chhabria, it is very important to have a vision of at least 5 years while investing in such thematic funds. He believes that consumer discretionary sectors like jewellery, fashion, retail can grow rapidly and can give 1.5 to 2 times more growth than GDP.
Positive outlook on quick commerce and digital platforms

In FMCG, he considers food category better than personal care and if we look at it, his outlook towards quick commerce and digital platforms is positive, because now the profit situation in these sectors is gradually getting stronger.
