Ashok Leyland | CMP: Rs 206.35

Ashok Leyland has faced selling pressure after peaking above Rs 260 in September 2024. Historically, the stock has found support near the 89-EMA (Exponential Moving Average) on the weekly chart, which is currently around the Rs 200 level. On a longer degree chart structure, it is placed around the 20-EMA on a monthly chart, which has acted as a strong support zone. Given the current technical placement and historical support at these levels, we expect a potential short-covering rally from this point. Hence, we recommend buying Ashok Leyland around Rs 200-205.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 265

Stop-Loss: Rs 189

State Bank of India | CMP: Rs 766

State Bank of India (SBI), after rallying nearly 80 percent from its early 2023 lows, has retraced to the 38.2% Fibonacci level of the prior up move, offering a favourable price location. The stock is currently trading near a strong short-term support band that has been respected multiple times since the beginning of last year. Technically, SBI has also found support at its 89-EMA on the weekly chart, further reinforcing the sturdiness of the underlying support. Given the oversold conditions in the broader market recently, we anticipate a strong pullback in the coming days, with heavyweight stocks like SBI expected to play a significant role in the recovery. Hence, we recommend buying SBI around Rs 755-735.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 875

Stop-Loss: Rs 700

Dabur India | CMP: Rs 539.1

Dabur India has witnessed a steep correction of nearly 25 percent from its peak of Rs 668 in the past five months and has plummeted to oversold terrain. However, in the last couple of trading sessions, the counter has gained some of its lost ground, suggesting an initial sign of reversal. Technically, the counter has surged above the 20- and 50-day EMA after a long haul, which implies the initial positive development in the counter. From a risk-reward point of view, the counter is placed at a lucrative zone and is most likely to continue its upward move in the near future. Hence, we recommend buying Dabur around Rs 530-525.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 600

Stop-Loss: Rs 495
