Hero MotoCorp | Target price: Rs 3,422
Hero MotoCorp is India’s leading motorcycle manufacturer with an overall market share of 54 percent.

JK Lakshmi Cement | Target: Rs 328
JK Lakshmi is a predominantly north India cement company which is the most favored region for the cement industry given better demand-supply dynamics.
The company had also posted a good set of numbers for Q1FY21 due to favorable regional presence.
Despite the sharp fall in volumes, cement companies were able to maintain their margins due to lower power and fuel costs which is expected to continue due to continued low crude prices.
"JK Lakshmi is our top pick in the mid-cap cement space given that it is trading at a significant discount compared to historical averages as well as peer group," said the analyst.
HCL Technologies | Target price: Rs 793
HCL Technologies posted a better than expected set of numbers for Q1FY21 as revenues were in line with street estimates though margins and profits came in above estimates due to cost control by the company.
Management commentary was also strong as they highlighted that the deal pipeline has improved significantly since March led by cloud-related services.
Management guidance of 1.5-2.5 percent QoQ growth in revenue in constant currency terms for the rest of the year also provides comfort.

ITC | Target price: Rs 260
The stock continues to offer a good combination of inexpensive valuations, healthy dividend yield, promise of solid long term growth in FMCG and emerging agri-business.
Strong traction in the food and hygiene portfolio should help improve base-line growth in FMCG.

The stock trades at an inexpensive valuation of 15 times on FY22E as compared to the sector average of 34 times.
"We expect RoE to inch up to 22 percent in FY22 which will be closer to the industry average of nearly 23 percent. The high dividend payout policy makes the dividend yield attractive at nearly 5 percent," said the analyst.
Indian Oil Corporation | Target: Rs 110
The analyst expects elevated marketing margins on auto fuels to offset the ongoing weakness in refining margins.
Even though IOC is far bigger than BPCL in terms of sales and net profit, it trades at more than 40 percent discount to the latter in terms of P/E and EV/ EBITDA, the analyst pointed out.
"We have a buy rating on the stock noting attractive valuations at 6.2 times FY22E EPS and a healthy dividend yield of nearly 5 percent. We expect the stock to get-rerated as and when BPCL divestment goes through," said the analyst.

The standalone business enjoys very high predictability of cash flows and profitability (more than 20 percent return of equity).
The analyst expects EPS to grow by 9.9 percent in FY21 and by 14.8 percent in FY22.
High operating cash flows leads to healthy free cash flow generation for the company.
The stock trades at a PE of 5 times on FY22E and 0.54 times on FY22E book value.
"We have a fair value of Rs 820, with the results for Q1FY21 further strengthening our investment thesis on stability of regulated business, moderating losses from new distribution circles and improving utilisation for Dhariwal," said the analyst.
Jindal Steel & Power (JSPL) | Target: Rs 280
Domestic steel price uptrend continues in September 2020 with prices now up by Rs 5,500/ton (up 16 percent) since June 2020 lows.
China’s stimulus and relative absence from export markets are supporting steel prices globally.
Spot steel margins are back to FY19 levels and should sustain in the coming quarters.
The combination of strong international iron ore and weak coking coal prices is ideal for Indian steel producers as they benefit from discounted domestic iron ore prices.
The analyst expects domestic steel industry utilisation to improve over the next 2-3 years led by limited capacity additions.
JSPL management has guided for 15 percent volume growth in FY21.
The company expects to conclude the Oman divestment in near future. The deal would reduce JSPL’s net debt by Rs 6,000-6,500 crore or by 17 percent and reduce net debt/EBITDA to 3.4 times from 3.9 times for FY21E.
Further, it would reduce concerns on lumpy debt repayments in FY21E.
"JSPL is our preferred pick in the steel sector due to better balance sheet, higher growth, strong FCF generation and attractive 4.8 times EV/EBITDA on FY22E. We expect JSPL’s EPS to go up from Rs 12.8 in FY21E to Rs 20.4 in FY22E," said the analyst.
Hindustan Unilever (HUL) | Target price: Rs 2,452
HUL is the largest FMCG company with one of the largest footprints in terms of products and distribution networks.
Continued focus on strategy to target volume growth and decline in material and other costs should drive outperformance in both growth and profitability in the medium to long-term.

With gradual easing pressure related to AGR dues, reduced competition, revenue market share gain and decent network capacity compared to peers, the analyst believes that Bharti Airtel remains well-placed for long-term growth in the telecom space.
FDC – Target 360
The company intends to drive growth through the development of quality products at affordable prices.
