    Amber Enterprises has exhibited a robust price structure since 2023, forming higher highs and higher lows, signaling a potential continuation of its upward trend. On the daily chart, a change in polarity highlights a strengthening bullish setup. The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator reinforces this momentum, displaying higher waves and confirming sustained positivity.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 8,272

    Stop-Loss: Rs 6,519

    Blue Star | CMP: Rs 1,917.8

    Blue Star has sustained a bullish structure, maintaining its upward momentum since 2022 following a breakout from a rising trendline. The stock trades comfortably above its 12-week and 26-week EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages), underscoring a strong trend. Additionally, the ratio chart indicates a rising trajectory, signaling potential for continued outperformance.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 2,203

    Stop-Loss: Rs 1,780

    Image1815012025

    KFin Technologies is in an uptrend on the weekly scale, holding strong support above its 12-week and 26-week EMAs. A polarity shift on the weekly chart suggests the stock is poised to extend its upward momentum. On the daily chart, bullish mean reversion signals from the 100-day EMA further reinforce the likelihood of continued upward movement.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 1,458

    Stop-Loss: Rs 1,155

    Jatin Gedia, Technical Research Analyst at Mirae Asset Sharekhan

    Biocon | CMP: Rs 382.05Image1915012025

    Biocon has broken out of a Cup and Handle pattern on the daily charts. The daily momentum indicator has a positive crossover, which is a buy signal. We expect the stock to trade with a positive bias and target levels of Rs 396 – Rs 405. A stop-loss of Rs 369 should be maintained for long positions.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 396, Rs 405

    Stop-Loss: Rs 369

    Aarti Industries | CMP: Rs 429.75

    Image2015012025

    Aarti Industries has witnessed a trend reversal on the daily charts. Positive divergence on the daily momentum indicator suggests exhaustion of selling pressure. We expect a retracement of the decline and target levels of Rs 458 – Rs 473 from a short-term perspective. A stop-loss of Rs 411 should be maintained for long positions.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 458, Rs 473

    Stop-Loss: Rs 411

    Minda Corporation | CMP: Rs 568.25

    Image2115012025

    Since the last few months, Minda Corporation has been consolidating in a broader range of Rs 490-550, with prices sustaining well above its 200-day exponential moving average on daily charts. Technically, the stock has formed a Triple Bottom pattern on daily charts around the Rs 485 level and given a breakout above the consolidation zone. Therefore, one can accumulate the stock in the range of Rs 560-570 for the expected upside of Rs 645-650, with a stop-loss below Rs 510.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 645, Rs 650

    Stop-Loss: Rs 510

    Equitas Small Finance Bank | CMP: Rs 70.97

    Image2215012025

    Equitas Small Finance Bank has been maintaining its downtrend, as prices have witnessed a series of declines from Rs 85 levels to Rs 62 over several months. Recently, the stock recovered from the Rs 62 level and once again gained fresh momentum above its key resistance level of Rs 70, after forming a rounding bottom pattern on broader charts. Additionally, the stock has given a breakout above the Cup & Handle pattern along with positive divergences on secondary oscillators. Therefore, one can accumulate the stock in the range of Rs 70-71 for the expected upside of Rs 78-79, with a stop-loss below Rs 65.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 78, Rs 79

    Stop-Loss: Rs 65
