Ajit Mishra, VP - Research, Religare Broking:

The recent buoyancy in banking is certainly an encouraging sign but we feel others should also pitch in for a sustainable surge in the benchmark. In the coming sessions, we expect that earnings announcements particularly from Nifty pack (HUL, Tech Mahindra) and F&O expiry will continue to lead stock-specific swings this week. We reiterate our view focusing on stock-selection and trade management amid the prevailing uncertainty.
