    Stocks to Watch

    Fund houses recommendations

    Page Industries – Ambit | Target Price: ₹34,167 | Recommendation: SELL

    Ambit believes management's double-digit volume growth guidance for FY27, implying 14–15% growth in 2HFY27, is ambitious. The brokerage expects volume growth to remain below 10% despite a festive recovery, new launches and improving order fulfilment, citing limited product differentiation, pricing risks and rising e-commerce competition as key constraints to sustained growth and valuation re-rating.

    Vodafone Idea – Ambit | Target Price: ₹18.7 | Recommendation: BUY

    Ambit believes network expansion, supported by funding of over ₹105 billion and equipment orders worth ₹132 billion, should improve subscriber retention. The brokerage expects a 15% tariff hike by December 2026, followed by 12% biennial hikes, and anticipates ₹250 billion in debt funding by March 2027, while government support and execution remain key monitorables.

    Ola Electric – Citi | Target Price: ₹21 (Earlier: ₹25.53) | Recommendation: SELL

    Citi considers management's target of achieving monthly production of 25,000 vehicles by December 2026 optimistic, despite recovery opportunities from the dealer-led transition and ramp-up of its 6 GWh cell facility. The brokerage has reduced its volume, revenue and EBITDA estimates due to supply constraints, rising costs, persistent market-share losses and weaker-than-expected battery-storage prospects.

    Alkem Laboratories – JPMorgan | Target Price: ₹6,000 (Earlier: ₹6,100) | Recommendation: NEUTRAL

    JPMorgan expects around 11% domestic growth in FY27, although structural competition remains a concern for the trade generics business. Investments in Enzene and Occlutech could weigh on margins over the next 12–24 months, while weak operating leverage, US pricing pressure and limited near-term catalysts may constrain valuation re-rating.

    Kirloskar Oil Engines – Jefferies |Target Price: ₹2,500 Recommendation: BUY

    Jefferies expects easing commodity and freight costs to reverse recent margin pressures, supported by market-share gains in high-horsepower generators and a consolidated industry structure that provides pricing power. Further price hikes and recovering exports could support operating margin improvement and strengthen profitability.

    Cummins India – Jefferies | Target Price: ₹5,450 (Earlier: ₹6,700) | Recommendation: BUY

    Jefferies believes cooling crude, commodity and freight costs could support a stronger-than-expected margin recovery, while pricing actions and stabilising export logistics may provide additional profitability support. However, the brokerage has reduced its FY27–FY30 EPS estimates by 19–21%, indicating that the pace of margin recovery remains the key catalyst.

    Thermax – Jefferies | Target Price: ₹4,020 | Recommendation: BUY

    Jefferies expects a significantly stronger second half as losses from ongoing projects ease, while cooling raw material and logistics costs could provide incremental margin relief. However, visible improvement in project execution remains critical for restoring investor confidence and supporting the company's financial performance.
