Stocks To Buy Today
Chandan Taparia, Derivatives & Technical Analyst of Motilal Oswal has recommended 2 stocks to buy today Wednesday, 26th July.
Technical Pick:
National Aluminium Company Limited
Buy at CMP of Rs 95, stop loss Rs 92, target price: Rs 100, duration: 2 to 3 days
National Alum has given flag breakout on daily chart and managed to close above the same. Buying is visible across Metals space and supports are gradually shifting higher. It has formed a strong bullish candle on daily chart with noticeable volumes which will support the ongoing up move, said Chandan Taparia.
Fundamental Pick:
Tata Motors
Buy at CMP of Rs 639, target price: Rs 750, duration: 1 year
TATA Motors (TTMT) significantly beat our estimates in 1QFY24, led by JLR and CV businesses. Consol. revenue grew 42% YoY in 1QFY24 to INR1,022b. EBITDA jumped 3.3x YoY to INR136b. Adj. PAT stood at INR37.2b (vs. loss of INR65b in 1QFY23). JLR EBIT margin expanded to 8.6% YoY while Tata CV business EBITDA margin improved to 9.4%. On the other hand, Tata PV business mix brings down margins. JLR's volumes grew 29% YoY to 106.25k units. With JLR wholesales expected at ~400k in FY24 and favorable mix, JLR should easily beat >6% EBIT margin guidance. India businesses focus on margin expansion as volume growth is likely to moderate in FY24. We upgrade our FY24E/25E consol. EPS by 28%/11% to factor in: a) JLR's moderation in certain costs, b) margin improvements in India CV business, and d) scheme of arrangement of cancellation of DVR shares w.e.f FY24, said Chandan Taparia.
