Stocks to buy for short term: From Swiggy to Biocon— Jigar Patel of Anand Rathi suggests 3 stock picks

Mint16-06-2025
Stocks to buy for the short term: Frontline indices, the Sensex and the Nifty 50, ended lower last week on profit booking amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, persisting concerns over US tariffs and stretched valuations.
The Indian stock market may remain volatile this week, tracking news flows surrounding Israel and Iran and ahead of the US Fed policy decision on June 18.
On the technical front, the Nifty 50 is now below 24,750, and experts see key support for the index at 24,450.
"The index ended last week with over a 1 per cent loss. Notably, the reversal occurred precisely near the 161.8 per cent Golden Ratio extension, reinforcing it as a strong resistance. A break below 24,450 could extend the fall toward 24,000," said Jigar S. Patel, Senior Manager of Equity Research at Anand Rathi Share and Stock Brokers.
"Traders are advised to stay cautious, avoid aggressive longs, and use relief rallies to lighten positions unless fresh momentum emerges. 25,200–25,300 is the key resistance zone, while 24,450–24,000 is the key support," Patel said.
Jigar Patel recommends buying shares of Swiggy, Biocon and Route Mobile for the next two to three weeks.
Swiggy recently broke out of a falling channel and touched ₹ 376, indicating bullish momentum.
Over the past five sessions, it has seen mild correction but found support at the monthly R3 Camarilla pivot.
Notably, the stock had consolidated between R3 and S3 pivots from March to May, a setup that often precedes strong directional moves.
This technical structure suggests potential for further upside.
"Consider long positions in the ₹ 355–345 zone, targeting ₹ 390. Maintain a stop loss at ₹ 330 on a daily closing basis," said Patel. Swiggy stock technical chart
Biocon recently broke out of a consolidation zone between ₹ 330–345 and is now trading well above it, signalling renewed strength.
On the monthly floor pivot, an inside value relationship between May and June (R1–S1) suggests potential for an explosive move.
The breakout was supported by a volume surge and a breach of the short-term falling trendline, reinforcing bullish sentiment.
Additionally, RSI held steady in the 40–50 range during consolidation and now hovers around 65.
"Go long in the ₹ 356–350 range, targeting ₹ 390. Maintain a stop loss at ₹ 335 on a daily closing basis," Patel said. Biocon stock technical chart
Recently, Route Mobile broke out after nearly a month of consolidation, accompanied by a significant surge in volume, indicating strong accumulation.
What makes this consolidation phase notable is that it occurred within the R3–S3 zone of the monthly Camarilla pivots, establishing an Inside Value relationship.
This setup forms when the current month's pivots are nested within the previous month's range, often signalling a potential breakout with strong directional bias.
Adding to the bullish case, the daily RSI has consistently held above the 60 level and is now positioned at 71, reflecting strengthening momentum.
"We recommend a buying opportunity in the ₹ 1,090-1,060 zone, with a target price of ₹ 1,220. Maintain a stop loss at ₹ 1,000 on a daily closing basis," said Patel. Route Mobile stock technical chart

Trade war: Tariffs notified, government hardens its position on no-go areas

NEW DELHI: On a day when US notified additional levies for countries, with 25% imposed on Indian exports, govt hardened its position asserting that farm and dairy products, genetically modified food, beef and animal feed with meat are no-go areas. Without being confrontational, govt sources made it clear that cultural sensitivities and farmers' interest will be paramount in talks with the US and indicated India's willingness to move ahead with talks, with the next round scheduled to begin on Aug 25. "We are engaged with American officials and securing our national interest is our primary objective. Govt is not going to come under pressure on areas that concern farmers and small businesses," said an official. While there is bound to be some impact on India's exports, sources said that it may shave off around 0.2 percentage points from GDP this year and there may not be a significant impact over the economy. The assessment is based on calculations that a significant part of India's exports to US - $20-25 billion out of overall exports of $86.5 billion last fiscal - was outside the ambit of tariffs notified through US President Donald Trump's executive order, issued early Friday (India time). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Emergency Generators in Miraflores: (Prices May Surprise You) Emergency Generator | Search Ads Search Now Undo In 2024-25, pharma exports were a little under $10 billion, while oil products added up to $4.2 billion and electronics were estimated at over $13 billion, made up largely of smartphones, according to official from medicines, the exemptions include Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, electronics and ICT products such as semiconductors, smartphones and computers and energy products.

Donald Trump says he heard India may stop buying oil from Russia: 'Good step'

US President Donald Trump on Saturday said that he had heard that India might no longer buy oil from Russia, though he acknowledged he was not certain about the claim. U.S. President Donald Trump waves as he arrives at Lehigh Valley International Airport in Allentown, Pennsylvania, U.S., August 1, 2025.(Reuters) "I understand that India is no longer going to be buying oil from Russia. That's what I heard, I don't know if that's right or not. That is a good step. We will see what happens," Trump told ANI. Trump's remarks come days after his tirade against India for buying Russian oil and the White House's decision to levy 25 per cent tariffs on all exports to America and an unspecified additional 'penalty' for purchasing Russian energy. In a post on Truth Social, Trump criticised India for maintaining the world's highest tariffs and 'obnoxious' trade barriers while continuing to buy Russian military equipment and energy during the Ukraine war. On Friday, external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal defended India's procurement of energy and defence hardware from Russia, saying New Delhi and Moscow have a 'steady and time-tested partnership'. 'India and the US share a comprehensive global strategic partnership anchored in shared interests, democratic values and robust people-to-people ties. This partnership has weathered several transitions and challenges,' Jaiswal said in response to several questions regarding Trump's tariff policy.

He also pointed to the potential for growing the 'strong defence partnership' with the US and highlighted that India's ties with the US had overcome several challenges and New Delhi is committed to taking the relationship forward.

Instant answers: India's fintechs harness GenAI

Bengaluru: Generative AI is rewriting the rules of finance, and nowhere is the upheaval sharper than in India's booming fintech scene. Brokerage chatbots that speak four languages, payment assistants that fix errors in seconds, and back-office engines that close two-hundred-million credit accounts before dawn are steadily stripping cost and friction out of money management—and propelling a new breed of startups onto the world stage. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now That momentum explains why Tiffany Bloomquist, who runs the startups business for Amazon Web Services (AWS) across Asia-Pacific and Japan, now touches down in India almost every quarter. Meeting founders in Bengaluru during a recent visit, she said GenAI has quickly become the fastest route to improving customer experience and urged entrepreneurs to weave the technology into every layer of their products. Three local tail-winds, she said, are fuelling the surge. F irst, the govet's India Stack gives developers ready-made digital rails for identity, payments and data-sharing. Second, Nasscom counts more than 240 Indian GenAI startups today, up from just 66 early last year. Third, AWS's ten-week GenAI Accelerator—supported by a $230 million fund—offers up to $1 million in credits, matches mentors and organises brisk "speed connect" meetings with big corporate buyers. Seven Indian firms have already won places on the current cohort. What, then, are those firms actually doing? Stock-broking platform Dhan, serving roughly three million traders, was drowning in know-your-customer (KYC) checks. By training a language model on its own policy documents, it now answers a quarter of those queries automatically, halving average wait times and cutting support costs by nearly a third. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Payment specialist Easebuzz faced merchants who repeatedly rang in with integration snags. Its new assistant, ERA, reads each message, compares it with technical manuals and suggests step-by-step fixes in real time. Redundant tickets have dropped by 80% and responses that once took 20 minutes arrive in seconds. At banking tech company Zeta, the numbers are bigger still. Every night the firm must post millions of transactions that merchants queue during the day. A cloud-based processing engine—reinforced with AI routines that predict the heaviest bursts—now reconciles 208 million credit accounts in about 40 minutes, a feat that would once have demanded a nine-figure hardware budget. Debt-marketplace Yubi uses large-language models to refresh credit scores. Feeding the software a lake of public filings and bank statements lets risk models update in hours rather than days, trimming a third off the time borrowers wait for funding offers. The common recipe is simple: distil company knowledge into an AI model, surface it through a chat-style interface and run it on servers that expand only when the rush arrives. "We used to automate servers," Bloomquist said. "Now we're automating compliance, advice, and trust. Founders who seize that shift will shape the next decade of finance."
