Bharat Iyer of JP Morgan says base case target for December 2016 for the Nifty remains at 8,600.

He says he expects Indian equities to deliver returns of 12-14 percent over the next twelve months, adding valuations at 17x forward earnings are higher than the average seen over the last decade.

"But we do not see these as a headwind at this stage as most asset classes globally are trading at a premium to long-term averages given easy liquidity and we believe we are in the early stages of an earnings recovery cycle," says Bharat Iyer.
