The recent turbulence in the stock market has left many investors uncertain about where to put their money. In such a volatile phase, the hunt is on for stocks that are both dependable and capable of delivering strong returns. To that end, three of the country's big brokerage houses have singled out three companies as attractive bets. Their reasoning is straightforward — robust business models, steadily rising demand in their sectors, and ambitious expansion plans. According to the brokerages, one of these stocks could jump by as much as 61% within just a year.
Orionpro Solutions: Eyeing a 61% Upside
Choice Institutional Equities has issued a buy call on Orionpro Solutions. In its latest report, the brokerage says the stock could climb to 1,250 rupees in the coming period, against its current price of around 775 rupees. That works out to a potential gain of roughly 61% from current levels. The brokerage argues that the company operates in areas widely regarded as the biggest growth themes of the years ahead — artificial intelligence (AI)-based software, transit digitisation, and data centre infrastructure.
Ajmera Realty: A Possible 45% Climb
From the real estate space, Emkay Global has picked Ajmera Realty & Infra. The brokerage has set a target price of 175 rupees for the stock, which is currently trading at 121 rupees — implying an upside of about 45%. According to Emkay, the company, which focuses mainly on the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, has staged a remarkable comeback after the Covid pandemic. The numbers back this up: between FY2021 and FY2026, the company logged a strong 24% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) in pre-sales, underscoring its momentum.
Lumax Auto Technologies: 'Buy' Rating Retained
The third bet rides on the auto sector. Brokerage house Anand Rathi has retained its 'Buy' rating on Lumax Auto Technologies. Taking a 12-month view, it has fixed a target price of 2,150 rupees for the stock, which currently trades at 1,634 rupees. The brokerage believes the company is exceptionally well placed in the passenger vehicle (PV) components segment, with a healthy order book and a roster of reputed clients across the country that strengthen its earnings outlook.
