Religare Broking Recommends Three Stocks for the Next 1-2 Weeks
India’s main stock index rose on Thursday after falling for seven sessions.
It finished at 24,232, helped by better global market signals and a stronger rupee.
Ajit Mishra of Religare Broking said investors should remain careful because markets are uncertain and crude oil prices are high.
He suggested looking for individual companies that appear stronger than the broader market.
His three short-term picks are Shriram Finance, Nippon Life India Asset Management, and The Indian Hotels Company.
Each stock has a suggested price target and a stop-loss level.
Mishra said the Nifty 50 could recover further if it moves above 24,300–24,400.
However, falling below 24,000 could bring back the market’s decline.
The Nifty 50 rose 0.64% to 24,232 on Thursday, ending a seven-session losing streak.
Ajit Mishra of Religare Broking advised caution on the index amid uncertainty and elevated crude prices.
Shriram Finance was assigned a target of ₹1,210 and a stop loss of ₹1,090.
Nippon Life India Asset Management was given a target of ₹1,340 and a stop loss of ₹1,180.
The Indian Hotels Company was assigned a target of ₹790 and a stop loss of ₹710.
