Axis Bank

Brokerage: CLSA | Rating: Buy | Target: Rs 650

The brokerage said that capital raising amount is in line with its assessment. Further, it believes that the issuance will cause a dilution of 9 percent and lift its FY19 net worth by 18 percent. Going forward, normalisation of asset quality/credit costs should ease concerns, it added.

Brokerage: Deutsche Bank | Rating: Buy | Target: Rs 620

State Bank of India

Brokerage: Edelweiss Sec | Rating: Buy | Target: Raised to Rs 399

Brokerage: HSBC | Rating: Buy | Target: Cut to Rs 815

Jubilant Food

Brokerage: Deutsche Bank | Rating: Buy | Target: Rs 1,775
