Stocks to buy for short term: MRPL to Havells— Jigar Patel of Anand Rathi recommends 3 stock picks; do you own any?
The Nifty 50 ended with a mild gain of 0.22 per cent at 25,461 on Friday, July 4. However, the index fell by almost 1 per cent on a weekly basis.
Jigar S. Patel, Senior Manager of Equity Research at Anand Rathi Share and Stock Brokers, underscored that while the Nifty breached 25,300, it is yet to convincingly hold above 25,600.
"The breakout is technically intact, but sustained trade above 25,600 is necessary for a potential rally toward 25,800–26,000," said Patel.
On the other hand, Patel believes if the index breaks below 25,250 on the downside, it would invalidate the breakout and could trigger a corrective move, potentially trapping bulls.
"The upcoming sessions are key to confirming follow-through. While the undertone has turned positive, markets remain vulnerable to quick shifts. Traders are advised to stay stock-specific, keep positions light, and maintain strict stop-loss discipline," said Patel.
Jigar Patel recommends buying shares of MRPL, Havells and Vijaya Diagnostic Centre for the next two to three weeks.
MRPL has recently established a strong base in the ₹ 135–140 zone, aligning with its previous breakout area from June 2022. This highlights a potential long-term demand zone.
The daily Camarilla monthly pivot chart indicates an inside value relationship, reflecting healthy consolidation within a bullish structure.
Adding to the strength, the daily RSI remains comfortably above 60, and rising volumes during the breakout further validate the upward momentum.
"Considering this constructive setup, long positions are recommended in the ₹ 151–148 zone, aiming for an upside target of ₹ 170. A stop loss should be placed below ₹ 138 on a daily closing basis," said Patel. MRPL
Havells has recently formed a strong base around the ₹ 1,500 level, indicating solid support at lower levels.
Notably, the stock has broken above a descending trendline, signalling a potential shift in trend.
It is also sustaining above mentioned trendline, further strengthening the bullish setup.
Adding to this positive structure, a hidden bullish divergence is visible on the daily RSI chart, suggesting underlying momentum is building despite recent consolidation.
This confluence of technical signals makes Havells an attractive buy candidate at current levels.
"We recommend going long in the ₹ 1,580– ₹ 1,570 zone, with an upside target of ₹ 1,750. A stop loss should be placed below ₹ 1,500 on a daily closing basis to manage risk effectively," said Patel. Havells India
Vijaya has been consolidating within the ₹ 900–1,000 range for the past two months.
In the previous session, it finally broke out of this range and closed decisively above it, indicating a potential trend shift.
Supporting this move, the daily Camarilla monthly pivot chart shows an overlapping higher-value relationship, reinforcing the bullish structure.
Additionally, the daily RSI is comfortably placed above the 60 mark, lending further strength to the positive outlook.
"Given this setup, we recommend initiating long positions in the ₹ 1,010–1,020 zone, targeting an upside towards ₹ 1,125. A stop loss should be placed below ₹ 960 on a daily closing basis," said Patel. Vijaya Diagnostic Centre technical chart

Indian markets hold steady, close flat amid US tariff uncertainty
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 7 (ANI): Indian stock benchmarks closed their first day of the week with slight gains, as investors remained cautious ahead of anticipated US tariff announcements. At the end of the trading session, Nifty ticked up by 0.0012 per cent at 25,461.30. The BSE's Sensex was up by 9.61 points, reaching 83,442.50. 'Market participants appeared reluctant to take aggressive positions, keeping the broader index range-bound. The sentiment was further dampened by global uncertainty, prompting a defensive approach across key sectors,' said Sundar Kewat, Technical and Derivatives Analyst, Ashika Institutional Equity. US President Donald Trump issued a strong warning to countries supporting what he termed were the anti-American policies of BRICS. In a social media post, Trump stated that any country aligning itself with the 'Anti-American policies of BRICS' will face an additional 10 per cent tariff on goods. 'There will be no exceptions to this policy,' Trump wrote, adding, 'Thank you for your attention to this matter!' Additionally, India and the US have been negotiating over a Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) before the critical July 9 deadline of the 90-day pause on tariff escalations. Among the index constituents, Hindustan Unilever, Tata Consumer Products and Nestle India emerged as the top gainers, while BEL and Tech Mahindra were the major losers. On the sectoral front, the Nifty FMCG and Nifty Oil and Gas Index closed in the green zone, while the Nifty Media and Nifty IT indices ended the day in the negative zone. 'The momentum indicators in the smaller time frames are rising from the oversold region, indicating a potential upside from the current level,' said Praveen Dwarakanath, Vice President of 'The index can be volatile owing to the tariff-related news and the expiry of 10th July; however, a dip in the index can be used as an opportunity to go long,' he added. Experts believe markets to remain in range bound till a clear picture of the US tariff comes out. (ANI)
