Biryani QSR Stocks: The popularity of biryani and chole bhature in Indian food is not hidden from anyone. Be it North India or South, everyone likes their taste. The demand for biryani is at its peak from New Year to Valentine's Day and cricket matches, while the magic of chole bhature prevails from home birthday parties to family outings. But have you thought that these delicious dishes can also enhance the taste of your stock portfolio? Let's know how!Growing prospects in the QSR sectorThe Indian stock market has seen a steady decline in recent years. In February 2025, it broke the record of the biggest decline of 28 years. However, stocks related to the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) sector remained relatively stable. Stocks related to the QSR sector can prove to be beneficial for investors in the times to come.Changes and growth in the QSR sectorIf we look at market trends, there is a big change in eating habits. Earlier people used to prefer eating in restaurants, but now online food delivery has changed this trend. Platforms like Zomato and Swiggy have also given recognition to small dhabas and local food vendors as QSR.The effect of this change was that the habit of eating out increased and the sales of QSR companies increased. Earlier Jubilant Foodworks and Devyani International were the major QSR companies, but now many more companies have joined this list. Apart from this, the success of companies like Zomato and Swiggy also depends on the QSR sector.Budget 2025 and QSR sectorThe government has focused on increasing consumption in Budget 2025. Leaving more money in the hands of taxpayers will increase their purchasing power, which will further increase the demand for eating out. The QSR sector is expected to benefit greatly from this change. However, inflation and margin management will also be an important factor for companies.Future of QSR stocksAccording to a report, the four major companies in India's QSR sector - Jubilant Foodworks, Devyani International, Westlife Foodworld and Sapphire Foods India - have the potential to grow by an average of 45% in the coming years.According to analysts:
