Persistent Systems | CMP: Rs 5,469.6

Persistent Systems is in a strong uptrend across all time frames, forming a series of higher tops and bottoms, which indicates bullish sentiment. The stock is firmly holding the 50-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) support zone at Rs 5,101, reaffirming bullish sentiment. With its current close, the stock has surpassed the highs of the past couple of sessions on a closing basis, along with significant volumes indicating increased participation.

The daily and monthly strength indicator RSI (Relative Strength Index) is in positive territory, signaling rising strength. Investors should buy, hold, and accumulate this stock with an expected upside of Rs 5,600-5,750, with a downside support zone of Rs 5,200-5,000.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 5,600, Rs 5,750

Stop-Loss: Rs 5,200

Nippon Life India Asset Management | CMP: Rs 700

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 785, Rs 813

Stop-Loss: Rs 675

Tata Chemicals | CMP: Rs 1,183

Tata Chemicals has been consolidating within a “horizontal channel” (Rs 1,160-Rs 1,000) for the past 6-8 months. However, with its current close, the stock has decisively broken out of this channel on a closing basis. This breakout is accompanied by substantial volume, indicating increased participation. The daily and weekly “Bollinger Band” buy signal shows increased activity. The stock is well positioned above its 20, 50, 100, and 200-day SMAs, which are also rising along with the price, reaffirming the bullish trend. The daily, weekly, and monthly strength indicators RSI are in positive territory, justifying rising strength across all time frames. Investors should buy, hold, and accumulate this stock with an expected upside of Rs 1,300-1,385, with a downside support zone of Rs 1,140-1,100.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 1,300, Rs 1,385

Stop-Loss: Rs 1,140

Exide Industries | CMP: Rs 530.5

Exide Industries has showcased a strong resurgence from the cluster of its Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) on the daily timeframe and has bounced to witness a trendline breakout. The price movement has been supported by a noticeable increase in trading volumes, indicating robust sentiment in the counter. Going forward, the breakout on the daily chart is likely to trigger bullish traction in the near term. From a technical perspective, the indicators have rebounded to witness a positive crossover, signaling a bullish trend in the stock. Hence, we recommend buying Exide Industries around Rs 525-520.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 575, Rs 580

Stop-Loss: Rs 490

Hindustan Aeronautics | CMP: Rs 4,446.15

HAL has undergone a corrective phase from its peak of Rs 5,659 toward the 200 SMA on the daily timeframe chart, coinciding with the previous breakout zone. In the last couple of trading sessions, the counter has shown initial signs of reversal from the oversold territory, suggesting a favourable risk-reward ratio for short-term investors. Additionally, on the oscillator front, the 14-day RSI has experienced a positive crossover, indicating a potential upside move for the counter. Hence, we recommend buying HAL around Rs 4,420-4,400.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 4,840, Rs 4,900

Stop-Loss: Rs 4,150

Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders | CMP: Rs 4,385

Mazagon Dock has experienced profit booking, followed by a time-wise corrective phase after a vertical rally. Currently, the stock has found support near its 100 DEMA on the daily timeframe chart, coinciding with the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement of the rally, indicating signs of respite from its corrective phase. Simultaneously, the recent upward momentum has been supported by an increase in average traded volumes, suggesting it may continue its upward movement in the near term. Hence, we recommend buying Mazagon Dock around Rs 4,350.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 4,900

Stop-Loss: Rs 3,980
