IDFC First Bank | CMP: Rs 73.82
After a short-term price correction, IDFC First Bank is available near its multiple support zones. The decent volume activity near the support zone indicates that the downside is limited. Therefore, the current rebound in the stock is expected to gain further bullish momentum from the current levels, with a favourable risk-reward perspective.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 80
Stop-Loss: Rs 71
Muthoot Finance | CMP: Rs 2035.5
On the daily and weekly scales, Muthoot Finance is forming a rising channel with a higher-high and higher-low series pattern. After a sharp uptrend rally, the counter closed above its breakout zone.

Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 2,170
Stop-Loss: Rs 1,960
Bikaji Foods International | CMP: Rs 932.65
