As macroeconomic fundamentals improve, equity markets are going to witness better times. Concerns over current account deficit (CAD), inflation, and economic growth have started easing, according to a report from Angel Broking.

CAD will be lower as commodity prices have undergone correction, inflation has started moderating, and government reforms are likely to boost the economy.

"We believe that the Sensex is likely to make new highs in the coming months on the back of this improving domestic outlook and strong global liquidity flows," notes the Angel Broking report.

Until now, defensive stocks primarily drove the market rally but if Sensex starts making new highs mid-cap companies would come back in favour.

Here's a list of 10 companies can give investors best returns in the next rally, according to Angel Broking.
