Major brokerage firms have recommended 5 stocks this week, predicting potential gains ranging from 14% to 27%
The Indian stock market recently witnessed a period of notable volatility, heavily influenced by global factors. Market sentiments faced downward pressure due to a massive sell-off in artificial intelligence and chip-related stocks across international financial centers. However, declining global crude oil prices provided a much-needed cushion to domestic investor sentiment, preventing a steeper downfall.
Amid this mixed trading landscape, several top-tier global and domestic brokerage houses issued fresh investment recommendations. Well-known financial firms, including Morgan Stanley, Kotak Securities, Nomura, Citi, and Antique Stock Broking, released their latest analysis on select equities. Their projections suggest that a few chosen stocks across diverse sectors could offer growth potential between 14% and 27%.
Aadhar Housing Finance Ltd
Kotak Securities remains highly optimistic about the affordable housing sector, specifically retaining its positive stance on Aadhar Housing Finance Ltd. The brokerage firmly maintains a “Buy” rating on the stock, setting a fair value target of Rs 630 per share. This target implies a significant upside potential of around 27% from its recent closing price. Analysts highlight that the firm represents a highly stable player in its segment, with an expected assets under management (AUM) growth rate of nearly 20% by the financial year 2027.
Meesho Ltd
In another significant development, global financial giant Citi initiated its stock coverage on the popular e-commerce platform Meesho Ltd for the first time. The brokerage assigned a “Buy” rating to the company, establishing a target price of Rs 210. This projection translates to an estimated growth of approximately 21% compared to its current market price. Financial experts point out that Meesho stands out from competitors due to its distinct logistics-monetization strategy and deeply rooted consumer base across smaller Tier-2 and Tier-3 Indian cities.
Adani Power Ltd
Power sector stocks are also drawing substantial institutional attention this week. Morgan Stanley actively reiterated its “Buy” rating on Adani Power Ltd while aggressively raising its target price. The brokerage upgraded the stock’s future target from Rs 173 to Rs 275 per share, indicating a potential rally of nearly 20% from recent market levels. The investment firm notes that the utility company’s evolved business model now carries lower operational risks while delivering higher returns and accelerated growth.
CG Power and Industrial Solutions Ltd
Similarly, CG Power and Industrial Solutions Ltd caught the attention of global firm Nomura. The brokerage maintained its “Buy” call on the company and revised its target price upward from Rs 1,050 to Rs 1,100. This new target offers an upside potential of roughly 20%. Market researchers attribute this growth opportunity to a critical shortage of power transformers in the United States, driven by aging infrastructure, electrification, and rapid data center expansion, creating a lucrative export pipeline for the Indian manufacturer.
Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd
Finally, Antique Stock Broking initiated its fresh coverage on the healthcare heavyweight Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd. Handing out a “Buy” recommendation, the domestic brokerage fixed a target price of Rs 9,790, which reflects a 14% upside from its latest price. The firm currently manages a massive network of 8,131 beds and actively plans to add around 1,000 more beds between the financial years 2026 and 2028. This rapid capacity expansion is widely anticipated to fuel strong growth across the company’s revenue, EBITDA, and net profit margins.
