Top stocks to buy this week: What's the outlook for Nifty? Check stock recommendations with 3-month horizon
Stock market recommendations:
According to Sudeep Shah, Head - Technical Research and Derivatives, SBI Securities, Dalmia Bharat, and Godrej Properties Ltd are the top stock picks for this week. Here's his view on Nifty, Bank Nifty for the week starting July 21, 2025, and the top stock picks with a 3-month horizon:
Nifty View
Last week the benchmark index Nifty ended in the red for the third consecutive week, reflecting sustained bearish sentiment in the market.
On the weekly chart, it has formed a bearish candle with a lower high and lower low's structure — a classic indication of downward momentum. Throughout the week, the index made three attempts to reclaim its 20-day EMA but faced rejection on all three occasions. It is now trading decisively below the 20-day EMA, which has started to edge lower, further reinforcing the bearish undertone.
Additionally, the upward slope of the 50-day and 100-day EMAs has begun to flatten, signalling a potential loss of medium-term momentum.
This slowdown in the EMA slope suggests growing indecisiveness and weakening strength among bulls. On the momentum front, the daily RSI is quoting at 43, marking its lowest level since April 2025. Moreover, the RSI is trading below its 9-day average, and both are in falling mode, indicating weakening internal strength and reinforcing the ongoing bearish setup.
Going ahead, Monday's trading session will be crucial for the index as heavyweights like Reliance Industries, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank announced their Q1 results over the weekend.

The reaction to these earnings could provide near-term direction and either amplify the current trend or spark a reversal.
Talking about crucial levels, the zone of 24940-24900 will act as immediate support for the index as it is the confluence of the 50-day EMA level and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of its prior upward rally (24473-25669). If the index slips below the 24900 level, then the next crucial support is placed at the 24700 level.
On the upside, the zone of 25130-25160 will act as an immediate hurdle for the index.
Bank Nifty View
The banking benchmark index Bank Nifty also extended its losing streak, ending in the red for the third consecutive week. On the daily chart, it witnessed a breakdown from a Rising Wedge pattern on Friday and also slipped below its 20-day EMA, which is a sign of growing bearish pressure.
A key technical observation lies in the daily RSI behaviour.
Despite a mid-week pullback, the daily RSI failed to surpass the 60 level, which is a bearish sign as per RSI range shift rules. Currently, the RSI is quoting at 45, its lowest level since March 2025, indicating a notable loss of momentum and growing weakness in the trend.
Going ahead, the 50-day EMA zone of 55950-55850 will act as immediate support for the index. If the index slips below the 55850 level, then the next crucial support is placed at the 55300 level.
On the upside, the 20-day EMA zone of 56700-56800 will act as an important hurdle for the index.
Stocks Recommendations
Dalmia Bharat
The stock has given a consolidation breakout along with robust volume. Currently, all the moving averages and momentum-based indicators are suggesting strong bullish momentum in the stock. Hence, we recommend to accumulate the stock in the zone of 2260-2240 with a stoploss of Rs 2170 level.
On the upside, it is likely to test the level of 2400 in the short term.
Godrej Properties Ltd
The stock has taken a support near 2192 level and thereafter witnessed a sharp rebound along with relatively higher volume. Currently, the stock is trading above its short and long-term moving averages. The daily RSI is about to cross the 60 mark and it is in rising mode. Hence, we recommend to accumulate the stock in the zone of 2370-2350 with a stoploss of Rs 2280 level. On the upside, it is likely to test the level of 2500 in the short term.

Full-fledged mining to start from Oct
Porvorim: Chief minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday said in the assembly that mining activities will begin on a larger scale in Goa from Oct this year. Sawant said that an auction for 12 mining blocks has been tendered, and mining has commenced in the case of three, while four other blocks are in the process of being auctioned and will be operational soon. 'Others are awaiting approvals from the director general of mines and safety, etc. We have carried out 29 e-auctions so far,' the chief minister said. 'We are trying to start sustainable mining in the state in a full-fledged manner at the earliest. We will auction the remaining four blocks, and two major blocks will become operational.' He said, 'We are serious about the restart of the mining industry. I am fully aware of the problems faced by people in the mining belt of the state.' The CM said unidentified dumps on govt lands will also be auctioned. He said that the restart of mining in South Goa is facing some hurdles due to the requirement of forest clearances, as most of these mines are within forest areas. Quepem MLA Altone D'Costa said that the people of South Goa are waiting eagerly for mining to restart in a sustainable manner. 'Only 12 mining blocks have been made operational, and only three are in South Goa,' he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 20 Pieces of Clothing you should Ditch over 40 Learn More Undo D'Costa also sought to know how much of the loss in revenue due to illegal mining has been recovered by govt so far.

Consumers owe Rs 350cr in dues, says power minister
Panaji: Dues amounting to Rs 350 crore are pending from power consumers in the state. Govt consumers are the biggest defaulters, with Rs 142.7 crore pending, followed by commercial consumers who owe govt Rs 122.8 crore, and domestic consumers who owe Rs 85.4 crore. The information was provided by power minister Ramkrishna 'Sudin' Dhavalikar in a written reply in the assembly. His reply stated that 6,551 consumers owe the department more than Rs 1 lakh in dues as of June 2025. These include around 3,000 public services consumers, which comprise govt departments. These also include 300 electricity department connections of its various offices. Another 1,525 defaulters are commercial consumers, 1,718 are domestic consumers, and 500-odd are industrial consumers. Of the total 6,551, 2,968 connections are active. When asked about the steps taken to recover amounts from major defaulters, Dhavalikar said a 15-day notice is served to the consumers to pay arrears, failing which the connection is temporarily disconnected. For consumers approaching the department with financial problems, the department provides an instalment plan to recover the payments in part, depending upon the past payments trend of the consumer, with applicable delay charges. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like EV chargers from £899 ScottishPower Learn More Undo Failing this, the connection is temporarily disconnected, he said. If the temporary disconnection lasts for six months, the department serves another notice to the defaulter, after which the connection is permanently disconnected if dues are not cleared. Finally, the matter is referred to the revenue recovery court. At a public hearing in May, conducted by the Joint Electricity Regulatory Commission (JERC), to discuss the proposed power tariff hike, consumers appealed to the JERC to keep the tariff hike on hold until the department recovers dues from govt departments and other defaulters first.

HC rules in BMC favour in 2 pleas on waste tender
Mumbai: The Bombay High Court has ruled in favour of the BMC in two petitions filed against the modified tender conditions prescribed for collection and transportation of solid waste in its wards. Veer Infra, along with another petiioner, had moved the HC challenging modified tender conditions, of July 1, 2025, and sought direction for issuance of fresh tender notice by prescribing the eligibility criteria as stipulated in the earlier tender floated for the years 2018-2025. The tender was for the collection and transportation of municipal solid waste in its wards to transfer stations and final disposal sites for a period of seven years from 2025 to 2032.

Both the petitioners had made representations complaining about stipulation of eligibility conditions in the tender notice. The petitioners said the July 1 modification amounts to wholesome modification of the tender conditions. That experience of door-to-door collection, storage, segregation, transportation and disposal of municipal solid waste for 7 years is impossible of being fulfilled by any contractor from Mumbai as similar tender of the requisite magnitude has never been floated during past seven years in Mumbai city. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Making history: These 5 timepieces set world records at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2025 CNA Read More Undo That the SLF Waste processing plants were installed in Mumbai only five years back, making it impossible for any bidder from Mumbai to fulfill the prescribed eligibility criteria. It was also argued that the modified marking system totaling 50 marks are reserved for subjective analysis, thereby leaving room for arbitrariness in selecting the favourite bidders by rejecting other eligible bidders. The high court said the civic body is the best judge it's requirement and has accordingly formulated the tender conditions. "This court cannot sit as an appellate authority over the wisdom of tendering authority in adopting methodology for evaluating bids." On the objection related to restriction put on Joint Venture bidders in bidding for more than one group, the HC said, "A bidder can bid to any numbers of groups, provided the bidder fulfills the criteria of the amount mentioned against the turnover and work experience individually for those groups."
