Buy or sell: Vaishali Parekh recommends three stocks to buy today — 1 July 2025
The Midcap and the Smallcap Indices bucked the trend, continuing their upward journey for the seventh day. Nifty Midcap 100 gained 0.60% while Nifty Smallcap 100 rose 0.52% to close at its highest levels since 02nd January. Market breadth remained positive for the fifth row, with advancing stocks outpacing declining ones, as indicated by a BSE advance-decline ratio of 1.36.
Vaishali Parekh, Vice President of Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, believes the Indian stock market sentiment is positive. However, the Nifty 50 index is facing a hurdle at the 25,650 zone. On breaking this hurdle on a closing basis, we can expect the 50-stock index to touch 26,200 soon. On the lower side, Nifty today has immediate support at 25,500, whereas it has crucial support at the 25,250 to 25,300 range.
Speaking on the outlook for the Nifty 50 today, Vaishali Parekh said, "The Nifty 50 index witnessed a halt resisting near the 25,650 zone in the morning session and thereafter witnessed a gradual slide as the day progressed to end near the 25,500 zone with overall bias and sentiment maintained strong expecting for further rise in the coming days. As mentioned earlier, the index would have near-term support near the 25,250-25,300 zone. On the upside, with the strong undertone, the scope for higher targets of 25700 and 26200 levels is achievable, with bias and sentiment better placed."
"The Bank Nifty index took a breather near the 57600 zone after the strong pick-up witnessed in the previous session and ended the day near the 57300 level with overall positive bias. The index continues to have important support near the 56000 zone, which needs to be sustained, and, on the upside, with the bias improving, can expect fresh targets of 58500 and 60000 levels in the coming days," said Parekh.
Parekh said the immediate support for Nifty today is at 25400 levels, while the resistance is at 25,700. BankNifty would have a daily range of 57000-57800.
Regarding stocks to buy today, Vaishali Parekh recommended buying TCS, Zen Tech, and UCO Bank, which are buy-or-sell stocks.
1] TCS: Buy at ₹ 3463, Target ₹ 3800, Stop Loss ₹ 3300;
2] Zen Tech: Buy at ₹ 1979, Target ₹ 2060, Stop Loss ₹ 1900; and
3] UCO Bank: Buy at ₹ 32, Target ₹ 36, Stop Loss ₹ 30.

Biased output, privacy violation, unauthorised data sharing due to AI can have serious ramifications for India Inc
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel Mumbai: As India Inc rushes to adopt AI, internal auditors are sounding the alarm over a perceived lack of robust controls, ethical safeguards, and governance auditors are warning that many companies may be inadvertently exposing themselves to serious risks such as biased outputs, privacy violations, unauthorised data sharing, and opaque decision-making by AI models, potentially causing legal and financial liabilities, and operational are worried that boards and top management are largely unaware of the scale of AI experimentation taking place at the ground level in Indian companies.A Microsoft study showed that India's rapid adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI), with 65% of surveyed Indians having used AI, is more than double the global average of 31%."Most organisations are using AI with the best intentions-whether for efficiency, productivity, faster time to market, staying ahead of the curve, or market defence. But, in their pursuit of these goals, governance may not have received as much attention," said Ritesh Tiwari, partner and national leader for governance, risk & compliance services at KPMG in said the biggest concern currently is the lack of adequate board-level engagement on the issue. "Ethical usage of AI has to be a boardroom topic. Without the top-down commitment, it's a ticking time bomb. One wrong deployment, one biased output-and the reputational damage could be massive," said Tiwari. "We do tests for bias where mandated, but in many companies, it's not yet part of their risk culture. That's something we're pushing to change."Globally, there have been several high-profile instances of AI failures, from Amazon's recruiting tool showing bias against women to Microsoft's Tay chatbot generating offensive content, Facebook's Cambridge Analytica data scandal, and McDonald's Drive-Thru AI Indian organisations become increasingly aware of the risks associated with AI deployments, they are also strengthening their oversight and governance mechanisms to manage these challenges."Organisations have now started to ask that internal audits specifically cover the AI adoption lifecycle, looking at everything from pre-development planning to post-deployment performance," said Sunil Bhadu, partner and India GRC leader at PwC India. "The focus is typically on the governance framework and policies, design compliance with industry standards, workflow integrity, and robust working processes to ensure that these models aren't hallucinating or generating misleading results."Internal auditors emphasise that Indian firms have to realise the value of building trustworthy AI by design. "With global incidents highlighting the risks, mature organisations are proactively seeking guidance on managing AI-related risks. They're turning to recent frameworks like the EU AI Act, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and Deloitte's own Trustworthy AI model, asking, can our systems be reviewed and benchmarked against these frameworks to ensure responsible development and deployment?" said Anthony Crasto, president, assurance at Deloitte South crucial factor in internal audits of AI models is cybersecurity and privacy, given AI systems often process sensitive personal and business data, using complex codebases, and can be vulnerable to adversarial attacks or prompt injection if not properly secured."From a security and privacy lens, we're also testing the algorithm logic, reviewing adherence to secure coding principles and business objectives, and data protection norms, and carrying out vulnerability assessments, etc. Data privacy is a growing area of concern," said Crasto. On their part, auditors are doing closer scrutiny of aspects like training, testing, and validation of these models, since flaws at the foundational stages could lead to biased, unreliable, or even unsafe outputs once deployed."We ask the companies: Is there a documented AI policy? Is it aligned with global frameworks? We assess the policy's treatment of privacy, security, responsibility, human-in-the-loop accountability, transparency, model bias and explainability," said Crasto.

India needs to be careful after US-Vietnam deal: Experts
India needs to tread carefully in its trade negotiations with the United States, keeping in view the terms proposed under the latter's trade deal with Vietnam, trade experts say. As per the new trade pact announced by President Donald Trump , the US will impose a flat 20% tariff, besides a 40% tariff on transshipped goods from Vietnam. Beyond a deviation from the previous commitments under the 2000 US-Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA), where Vietnamese goods were subject to 2-10% tariffs, the new deal seeks to tax transshipped goods, which differs from the rules of origin on which tariffs or duty concessions are based. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ултрапреносими 2-в-1 таблети - 50% отстъпка в последния ден LYH Купете сега Undo "The terms are that Vietnam will pay the United States a 20% tariff on any and all goods sent into our territory, and a 40% tariff on any transshipping," Trump said in a post on X. "India needs to be cautious as these transshipment tariffs could be a different form of 'rules of origin', which could have a detrimental impact on our pharmaceutical and electronics exports where the import component is high," said trade expert Biswajit Dhar. Live Events Indian trade negotiators are in the US since last week to thrash out a deal before the July 9 deadline for an interim deal to avoid US reciprocal tariffs, but India has hardened its stance to protect its sensitivities.
