Buy or sell: Vaishali Parekh recommends three stocks to buy today — 27 June 2025
Buy or sell stocks: The Indian stock market extended its rally for the third straight session and finished higher on Thursday. The Nifty 50 index gained 304 points and closed at 25,549, the BSE Sensex shot up 1,000 points and closed at 83,755, while the Bank Nifty index went up 585 points and closed at 57,206. Sectorally, private banks, oil & gas, and metal counters witnessed strong traction, advancing 1–2%, while profit-taking was evident in realty and media pockets, which ended lower by around 1% each. The BSE Midcap index outperformed with a gain of 0.5%, while the Smallcap closed on a muted note, essentially unchanged amid stock-specific churn.
The June F&O series concluded positively, extending the winning streak to four straight expiries and underscoring a sustained bullish undertone in the broader market. Bank stocks saw strong buying, lifting the Nifty Bank index to a new all-time high of 57,263.45. The rally in the Nifty Bank Index was mainly driven by heavy buying in private sector banks.
Vaishali Parekh, Vice President of Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, believes the Indian stock market bias has turned positive as the Nifty 50 index finally broke above the hurdle at 25,250 to 25,300 levels. The key benchmark index is now heading towards 25,700, and the new support for the 50-stock index is placed at 25,300 to 25,250.
Speaking on the outlook of the Nifty 50 today, Vaishali Parekh said, "The Nifty 50 index, after one and a half months gripped between a tight range, has indicated a clear breakout with a bullish candle formation above the tough resistance hurdle of 25300 zone strengthening the trend and further rise is expected in the coming days. The index would have the near-term support elevated now to the 25250-25300 zone and on the upside with bias and sentiment improving, can expect targets of 25700 and 26200 levels in the coming days."
"The Bank Nifty index has indicated a strong closing with a bullish candle pattern to breach above the previous peak zone at 57050 level and has entered new territory with bias improved significantly, expecting a further upward move in the coming days. The index would have the important support near the 56000 zone, which needs to be sustained, and, on the upside, can expect fresh higher targets of 58500 and 60000 levels in the coming days," said Parekh.
Parekh said that today, the Nifty's support is at 25,400, while the resistance is at 25,700. The Bank Nifty will have a daily range of 56,700 to 57,800.
Regarding stocks to buy today, Vaishali Parekh recommended buying these three buy-or-sell stocks: Lloyds Engineering, Vedanta, Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services.
1] Lloyds Engineering: Buy at ₹ 62, Target ₹ 70, Stop Loss ₹ 59;
2] Vedanta: Buy at ₹ 453, Target ₹ 480, Stop Loss ₹ 440; and
3] Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services: Buy at ₹ 269, Target ₹ 285, Stop Loss ₹ 260.

With bold flavours and fun plating: Small plates take over India's dining scene
Vanilla Flan Who wants one big plate when you can have five delicious little ones? Today's diners are happily swapping large, single-course meals for smaller, carefully curated dishes. 'The growing popularity of small plates reflects a shift in dining preferences—where variety, sharing, and connection take centre stage,' says Raghav Jandroia, corporate chef at Harajuku Tokyo Cafe. It's not about eating less—it's about tasting more. We speak to chefs, restaurateurs, and diners to find out more... One plate isn't enough anymore The days of ordering one starter, one main, and a dessert are numbered. 'I see small plates as a dynamic way to engage diners,' says Chef Tej Saini of Saule - Kitchen & Bar. 'You get to explore a spectrum of flavours and global influences in one sitting. It's interactive, playful, and sparks conversation.' For chefs, it's also a creative arena. Kiron Kumar, director of operations at The Park Bangalore, adds, 'Small plates allow chefs to build seasonal, sustainable menus and create an experience diners remember. A 25–30% (approx) rise in demand for small plates is seen." Beetroot tartare with avocado 'Every element earns its place on a small plate' Indian chefs are owning this with bold visuals and bold flavours. 'With limited space on a small plate, every element has to earn its place,' says Ashish Verma, executive chef, Masala Synergy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Philippines: Don't Miss Out on These Amazing Sofa Deals at Clearance Prices (Check Now) Luxury Sofa | Search ads Undo 'It's about balance—taste, texture, aroma—and of course, visual drama.' Agreeing to this, Mohit Mishra, executive chef of Udaipur Marriott Hotel explains, 'Before diners even taste the dish, they've already connected with it.' He adds that their Gatta Ricotta Empanadas with Smoked Tomato Coulis embodies this philosophy. 'It's a crisp empanada filled with spiced Rajasthani gatta and creamy ricotta, plated on a vibrant, smoky coulis.' Smoked Tomato Coulis 'Bold experimentation and cross cultural pairings' Small plates and tapas-style menus mark a clear shift in how diners engage with food. 'This allows for bold experimentation and unique cross-cultural pairings, resulting in plates that are both familiar and refreshingly inventive,' says Chef Ashish Verma. 'It lets us showcase a diverse range of flavours and global influences, all while staying rooted in the soul of Indian cuisine.' But with creativity comes complexity. 'The challenge,' Mohit adds, 'is delivering consistency and complexity across multiple dishes, without overwhelming the kitchen or compromising the experience.' Avocado Dahi Puri 'This style of dining naturally aligns with the Indian way of eating' Here's the thing—this way of eating isn't new to Indians. Sharing, variety, and sampling are built into our culture. 'Tapas-style dining naturally aligns with the Indian way of eating,' says Alisha Mehra, chef and co-founder of Bomba Pizzeria & Taqueria. 'We've always loved meals that feel social, varied, and bold.' Diners also agree to it. 'I love small plates because I get to try more without wasting food,' says food enthusiast Asmita Ray. 'Though with big groups, it can get pricey—you often have to order multiple portions of the same thing.' But whether it's a family-style meal or a tasting menu for two, the excitement of exploring new flavours wins every time. Create your own small plate meal: Start with a few easy dishes that bring in different tastes and textures. Think of pairing something crunchy like a fried snack or roasted nuts with something soft and creamy, like a chutney, dip, or yogurt-based element. Use fresh, seasonal ingredients, and keep the portions small so the meal stays light but interesting. You can also mix cooked items with raw ones, like salads, pickled vegetables, or fruit-based elements for brightness. The goal is variety on the plate without spending hours in the kitchen.

India's homegrown 5G innovation paves way for 6G
HYDERABAD: India's homegrown 5G innovation has gone global. At the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) meeting held in Prague, a global consortium backed the extension of India's BPSK uplink waveform, paving the way for 6G. First developed at IIT Hyderabad (IIT-H) in 2014, the waveform aims to support next-gen, uplink-heavy applications like HD video, XR and on-device AI, while laying the groundwork for 6G. Led by Prof Kiran Kuchi of IIT-H and supported by WiSig Networks, the innovation has journeyed from a single-lab idea to a global 5G standard (Release 17). Today, it is used by operators and vendors worldwide, thanks to support from tech giants—Apple, Qualcomm, Ericsson, Nokia, Samsung, MediaTek, DOCOMO, AT&T, Reliance Jio, Thales—and national bodies including DoT, MeitY, DST and TSDSI. 'This milestone signals India's arrival in global telecom leadership,' said Prof Kuchi. IIT Hyderabad Director Prof BS Murty noted, 'Our research continues to push boundaries, with 6G efforts already underway through technologies like OTFDM and Structural MIMO.' As the 6G era dawns, IIT-H and WiSig Networks are already advancing technologies such as the OTFDM waveform and Structural MIMO within the newly approved 6G Study Item. A WiSig release said, 'Together with Indian and global partners, we will continue to imagine, invent and deliver the next generation of communication technologies.'
