21 day EMA 1811.90 1885 2090

50 day EMA 1816.71 1830 2120

200 day EMA 1833.78 1790 2150

Bank Nifty is forming a double bottom formation on weekly charts withneckline placed at 10000 levels supported with a positive divergence with 14-week RSI and Stochastic line, and any positive closing above 10000 levels would guide the index towards the upper band area placed around 11000 levels.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The stock likely to continue it’s out performance in the near term; the upward momentum is likely to push the

stock towards its resistance of 2050-2120 levels. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table. .

Bajaj Auto has outperformed the broader market and auto sector last month. The stock ended 5.68% up last month as against its counterpart Hero Motors which lost over 4% during the last month. Bajaj Auto saw a sharp mover in the last week, June on back of strong volume despite the negative news of strike in one of its plant.

On daily charts, the stock has given a breakout to the cluster of moving averages placed between 1811-1833 levels, and managed to close above all its short and medium term moving averages. These indicate confidence amongst the market participants and suggest a buying opportunity at current levels.

On weekly chart the stock has given a break out of downward sloping trend line drawn from the all time high of January 2013. Among technical indicators, the 14-day RSI line and Stochastic has given a fresh buy trigger, and MACD line is above the central line, indicating bull to take charge over the counter.

The stock also saw value buying after the rupee declined to record low of 60.75 levels against the dollar last month. Bajaj Auto gets close to 1/3 rd of the revenue from the export markets.

Bharti Airtel Telecom 291.75 Buy 277 266 305 324

Our take: The stock is likely to stay bullish as long as it holds above the 270 levels. Sustenance above 200-EMA would

support the positive outlook. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

Bharti Airtel has been trading in the broad range of 270-330 for the last six months. It has bounced back strongly from its recent lows of sub-280 levels. The stock has underperformed its counterpart RCom and Idea significantly in the last couple of months. Also, it has hangover of the huge dollar debt on its balance sheet. We expect the stock has factored into much of its negatives and would see the catch up rally in the near future.

On the daily charts, the stock is trading close to its short term moving averages. The strong hands are accumulating the stock at the lower end of the trading band indicated by expansion of volumes. However, the stock faces resistance around the 310 levels in the form of 200-EMA, above which a strong move towards 330 levels can be seen in the short span of time.

Among indicators, 14-days RSI has given a buy signal that would help the stock to continue its momentum on the upside. Hence, it is advisable to accumulate on dips below 280.

The increase in the tariff price and increasing volume on the Data front (3G & 4G) would boost the performance the company in near future. Thus, any decline in the stock would attract value buyers adding into their portfolio.

21 day EMA 388.88 378 412

50 day EMA 383.6 370 428

200 day EMA 384.09 362 435

Bank Nifty is forming a double bottom formation on weekly charts withneckline placed at 10000 levels supported with a positive divergence with 14-week RSI and Stochastic line, and any positive closing above 10000 levels would guide the index towards the upper band area placed around 11000 levels.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: Cipla being a defensive stock is likely to attract buying because of high uncertainty in the broader markets. Also,

the stock could witness fresh investors to chip in on anticipation of strong numbers for the June quarter. We suggest accumulation of the stock for immediate targets of 408 and 415 levels with a stop loss place below 368 levels.

Cipla has outperformed the Nifty in the month of June. The stock has gained 5.78% in that month as against 2.4% loss in Nifty. The stock has seen defensive buying for the last few months after the broader market witnessed huge volatility. However, prior to that the stock has seen sharp sell-off after it disappointed the street with the Q4 results. The stock tanked from the high of 427 levels to 362 levels in less than 2-week time.

The stock has taken support at 360-370 levels and value buying in the stock has pushed it above all its short and long term moving average during the last couple of sessions of June Month. Cipla earns major part of the revenues from the exports and thus, the recent strengthening of the dollar would be visible in the bottom line of the company in the coming quarterly numbers.

On the daily chart the momentum indicators and the oscillators suggest upward movement to continue in the stock in the near future and is likely to head towards its life time highs of 435 levels in the couple of months.

The stock is placed just above its short term moving averages, which will act as strong support and will arrest major downside in near term. Thus, any dips can be utilized for fresh buying into the stock.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The counter has rebounded from its lows and is expected to continue its upside momentum. The stock can be

accumulated on declines. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

Divis Lab has rebounded after taking support of 925 levels made during the 2nd

week of June. The stock had corrected about 19% from its May high of 1150 levels. The price fall was witnessed by value buying at lower levels by the investors and has seen the stock rise about 7% from the June lows of 925 levels.

On the Weekly charts, the stock has taken support towards the upward sloping trend-line drawn from the lows of April 2009 and is expected to continue its uptrend.

On the daily charts, the stock has given a positive crossover to the 8-day and 21-day EMA and has retraced 23.80% retracement levels placed at 980 levels and is expected to continue it upward momentum towards the 61.80% retracement levels of 1066 levels.

The Bollinger band has witnessed a volatility squeeze in the last few trading sessions and a volatility increase can be expected in the near-term which may take the prices on the higher side in short span.

Among technical indicators, the 14-day RSI has taken multiple supports on the 9-day EMA signal line pointing northwards. The MACD has reached the positive territory trading above the signal line, indicating the potential for the stock to move up in the near-term.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The counter is expected to continue its upward momentum to make new highs during the current month. Also,

sharp fall of rupee against the dollar will be beneficial to HCL Tech and thus, the stock would attract value buying on any small decline. We suggest accumulating the stock for targets of 805 and 830 for the month with a stop loss placed at 730 levels.

HCL Tech has out-performed both Nifty and CNX IT in the month of June. The stock surged over 4% last month as against 2.5% gains in CNX IT, while the Nifty posted negative returns of 2.4%. The stock has been in a strong uptrend for the last 7-8 quarters. It has surged from the lows of 360 in the month of August 2011 to make its life time highs of 810 levels in April this year.

The stock has been in structural uptrend and is making higher highs and higher lows pattern. The stock witnessed profit booking from its life time high of 810 and slipped to 680 levels in less than 7 trading sessions. However, the stock has taken support at 700 levels and thereafter consolidated in the range of 720-760 for two months before giving breakout in the last week of June.

The momentum indicators have given fresh buy signal in the stock. Also, in the weekly chart, the RSI (14) and money flow index line are pointing upwards indicating the upward momentum likely to continue in the stock in the weeks ahead and push towards its life time high of 810 levels.

The stock is placed just above its short term moving averages, which will act as strong support and will arrest major downside in near term. Thus, any dips can be utilized for fresh buying into the stock.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The stock is expected to remain bullish till it remains above 620 levels. We suggest accumulation of the stock

on any declines for higher targets of 710 and 725 levels in the current month. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

HDFC Bank has ended over 4% lower in the month of June, underperforming the Nifty by 2%. However, it outperformed its bench mark index Bank Nifty which lost over 6.8% during the last month. The stock has seen sharp bounce of 10% from the June lows in the last few sessions on the back of strong volumes. This indicates the reversal of the downtrend in the stock and resumption of upward momentum in the stock towards its life time high of 727 levels.

The stock has been in structural uptrend and has been making higher highs and higher lows patterns. The stock surged from lows of 150 levels in the month of March 2009 to highs of 727 levels in the month of May this year. The recent bounce suggests the resumption of uptrend to make fresh life time high in the near futures.

The recent strong bounce in the stock has pushed the stock above all its short and long term moving averages. Moreover, the increase in volumes during the recent rally suggests the inherent strength in the stock.

Among technical indicators, the 14-day RSI is pointing northward. In addition, the MACD line has made a positive crossover to the signal line, indicating bulls to take charge over the counter which could take the price up.

21 day EMA 99.30 95 101

50 day EMA 100.77 92 109

Bank Nifty is forming a double bottom formation on weekly charts withneckline placed at 10000 levels supported with a positive divergence with 14-week RSI and Stochastic line, and any positive closing above 10000 levels would guide the index towards the upper band area placed around 11000 levels.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The counter is expected to continue its uptrend and can see a sharp rally above 101 levels, which can push the

counter to hit 110 levels. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

Hindalco has outperformed its peers in the last quarter and has been the only metal stock to have given positive returns QoQ. It has built a strong base around the 90 levels and witnessed value buying interest on every dip towards those levels. Another important observation is that the stock witnesses sharp move when it bounces from the support zone of 90-92.

The stock has seen sharp cut from its 52-week high of 138 levels made in January 2013 after the meltdown in the commodity markets. However; it has taken support at the lower end of the channel on weekly charts.

On daily charts, even though the stock currently is placed below its long term moving averages, it witnesses sharp spike when it breaks past its 50-EMA. With the current market price hovering around those levels and with a sudden change in market sentiment in the last few trading sessions, the stock is expected to test its 200-EMA which is pegged at around 109 levels.

Among technical indicators, both 14-day RSI and Stochastics are in strong buy mode indicating confidence amongst the market participants and suggest a buying opportunity at current levels.

Bank Nifty is forming a double bottom formation on weekly charts withneckline placed at 10000 levels supported with a positive divergence with 14-week RSI and Stochastic line, and any positive closing above 10000 levels would guide the index towards the upper band area placed around 11000 levels.

On the daily charts, the index is struggling around its 50-day EMA levels and a failure to take-off the same would trigger a slide towards its immediate support placed at its 8 & 21-day EMA (9400 lev

Our take: The counter is expected to continue its upward momentum and head toward its life time high of 370 levels in

few weeks. Any decline in the stock would make risk-reward favorable for long positions. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

ONGC has been trading sideways for the last six months in the band of 290-350. Value buying emerges in the counter whenever it dips below 300. The stock is in striking distance from its all time highs of 370 and with positive news flow surrounding the counter; ONGC is well placed to lead the rally in the Oil & Gas space.

The stock is currently trading above all its major moving averages on the daily charts. It has taken strong support at its 200-EMA on multiple occasions and seen sharp reversals towards newer highs. The weekly volumes are at 6-month high, with highest volume witnessed in Friday’s trade. This makes the counter attractive for buying and any dip can be used for fresh accumulation.

Among technical indicators, the 14-day RSI has given a strong buy signal with increased participation indicating bulls to take charge over the counter which could take the prices higher.

Another major boost for the stock in coming weeks is the approval by the Government of India to hike domestic gas prices to around $8.4 per MMBTU. This would translate into upgrading of earning of FY15, thus providing the potential for an upgrade from current levels.

Reliance Capital Financial Services

336.85 Buy 316 305 358 375

Our take: The counter is expected to rebound strongly from current levels if the overall market sentiment improves and the

inherent high beta nature can lead to outperformance. Investors are advised to strictly adhere to the stop loss (closing basis) and target levels mentioned in the above table.

Reliance Capital has outperformed the broader market in the month of June. Prior to that the stock has corrected over 35% YTD from the highs of 500 levels, in line with the prevailing volatility in the market. The stock has built a strong base around 300 levels with value buying emerging on dips towards those levels. Also, the positive news flow among its group supported the stock to hold on to its supports.

The stock has been hovering around its short term major moving averages for the last few weeks. A close above 350 supported by increased participation would take the stock prices towards its 200-EMA which is pegged at around 375 levels.

Among technical indicators, the 14-day RSI has given a buy signal by closing above the 9-day EMA signal line. The stock can gain strong momentum if it breaks past 350 levels and can test 380 levels in coming weeks.

Reliance Capital is roping in foreign partners in its bid to apply for banking license which could be a positive trigger for the stock in coming weeks and could provide an opportunity for potential re-rating in the counter.
