The recent rout in midcap and smallcap stocks led to up to 60 per cent fall in these counters, especially on the back of market regulator Sebi including some of them into the Additional Surveillance Mechanism (ASM) list. Another contributing factor was the restructuring of mutual fund schemes according to new Sebi norms, and even the rich valuations contributed to the recent losses. 

The Nifty Midcap and Smallcap indices tanked up to 7 per cent in the last one month against Nifty's flat performance during the same period. Vakrangee (down 62 per cent), KSK Energy Ventures (down 58 per cent), Manpasand Beverages(down 54 per cent), IVRCL (down 52 per cent), and Arrow Greentech (down 44 per cent) were the leading losers among smallcap stocks.  

"Midcaps have struggled over the last few months, resulting in their underperformance versus large-caps. Over the last 12 months, midcaps have delivered 8 per cent returns, as against 12 per cent by the Nifty. However, over the last five years, midcaps have outperformed the Nifty by 63 per cent," said brokerage Motilal Oswal Securities in a research note. 

With this recent fall in midcap and smallcap stocks, experts believe this has given an opportunity to dip into quality stocks at lower levels as not all stocks that have suffered ASM sell-off are of bad quality. "Some of midcap and smallcap stocks witnessed hefty selling pressure due to Sebi's surveillance mechanism, but fundamentally, there is nothing wrong with these companies," said Vikas Sethi, MD, Sethi Finmart.

Sethi advised segregating the good and bad quality stocks to make money in quality midcap and smallcap counters in the next three to six months. 

Company Returns (last one-month) PE ratio
Rain Industries -33% 9.7x
Avanti Feed -32% 18.4x
Ajanta Pharma -24% 17.6x
Eros International -20% 5.6x
Gujarat Alkalies -16% 8.5x
GSFC -15% 9.5x
Muthooth Finance -14% 8.6x
MRPL -13% 4.6x
IRB Infra -12% 9.2x
