Stocks to trade today: Trade Brains Portal recommends two stocks for 4 June
Stock market today: Indian stock markets extended their losing streak for a third straight session on Tuesday, 3 June, as weak global cues, stretched valuations, and persistent foreign capital outflows weighed on investor sentiment. The Sensex opened at 81,492.50, slightly higher than its previous close of 81,373.75, but soon tumbled nearly 800 points—or 1%—to hit an intraday low of 80,575.09. The Nifty 50 followed a similar trajectory, opening at 24,786.30 versus the previous close of 24,716.60, before slipping to an intraday low of 24,502.15, also down about 1%. By the close, the Sensex had shed 636 points, or 0.78%, to end at 80,737.51, while the Nifty 50 closed at 24,542.50, down 174 points, or 0.70%. Against this backdrop, Trade Brains Portal has recommended two stocks for 4 June—one from the IT solutions sector and the other from the housing finance sector. Current price : ₹ 758 : 758 Target price : ₹ 920 (16–24 months) : 920 (16–24 months) Stop-loss : ₹ 677 : 677 Why eMudhra is recommended: Established in 2008, eMudhra Ltd is a global organization enabling secure digital transformation through Trust services and identity-based solutions. As India's largest certifying authority, it has issued over 60 million digital identities and serves enterprise clients across more than 21 countries. Its customer base includes Fortune 100 companies and over 1,000 enterprises that rely on its identity, authentication, and paperless platforms for digital transformation initiatives. The company operates in two key segments: Enterprise Solutions, which contributes 80% of its revenue, and Trust Services, which accounts for the remaining 20%. eMudhra is uniquely positioned as the only Indian company offering a unified platform for identity, signing, cryptography, and certificate automation. It continues to lead the Indian market in the Trust Services segment, providing a wide range of digital certificates, including digital signature, SSL/TLS, and S/MIME certificates. In FY25, the company's international business grew 57.3% year-on-year, now contributing 62% of total revenue. eMudhra plans to expand further into the European Union in FY26. It also made strategic acquisitions in the U.S., including Ikon and Two95, to strengthen its presence and create cross-selling opportunities in the American market. Financially, eMudhra reported a total income of ₹ 527.8 crore in FY25, up 38.9% YoY, driven by strong global demand for its services and solutions. Adjusted EBITDA rose 15.7% YoY to ₹ 141.3 crore, with a 4-year CAGR of 35%. Adjusted PAT stood at ₹ 94.6 crore, up 17.3% YoY, with a robust margin of 17.9%. The company remains debt-free, with cash and cash equivalents of ₹ 188.56 crore as of FY25. Risk factors: However, the business is exposed to regulatory risk, as it relies on licences to issue digital certificates. Failure to comply with evolving guidelines or audit requirements in India or abroad could affect operations. Additionally, it faces competition from global players such as DigiCert, Entrust, Sectigo, and GlobalSign across various digital certificate offerings. Read this | Analysts and investors have soured on Asian Paints. Can it prove them wrong? Current price : ₹ 122 : 122 Target price : ₹ 150 (16–24 months) : 150 (16–24 months) Stop-loss : ₹ 108 : 108 Why Bajaj Housing Finance is recommended: A non-deposit-taking housing finance company registered with the National Housing Bank in 2015, Bajaj Housing Finance Ltd (BHFL) began operations in 2017. It offers a range of secured lending products including home loans, loans against property, lease rental discounting, and developer finance, with a focus on maintaining a low-risk, medium-return portfolio. In FY25, BHFL surpassed ₹ 1 lakh crore in assets under management (AUM), reaching ₹ 1,14,684 crore. Its AUM is well-diversified: home loans make up 56.2%, lease rental discounting 19.1%, developer finance 12.5%, loans against property 10.7%, and other segments the remaining 1.5%. The company now operates 216 branches across 174 locations in 22 states. Since FY18, BHFL's AUM has grown at a staggering 64% CAGR. Total income in FY25 rose 25.7% YoY to ₹ 9,576 crore, while loan disbursements increased 25% YoY to ₹ 14,254 crore. Profit after tax for the year stood at ₹ 2,163 crore, also up 25%. The operating expense (OPEX) ratio has improved dramatically—from 74.6% in FY18 to 20.8% in FY25—reflecting strong cost control. Return on equity has strengthened to 13.4% in FY25 from 7.8% in FY21. Asset quality remains robust, with gross NPAs at just 0.11% and a provision coverage ratio of 60%. Net interest margin remains healthy and stable at 4% in Q4FY25. Looking ahead, management has guided for 24–26% AUM growth over the medium term. The OPEX ratio is expected to fall further to 14–15%, and ROE is projected to improve to 13–15%. GNPA levels are expected to remain within 40–60 basis points. Leverage, currently at 5.2x, is targeted to increase to 7–8x, while the debt-to-equity ratio stood at 4.1x in FY25. BHFL plans to invest aggressively in its Strategic Business Units and expand into non-metro markets in FY26 to sustain its growth momentum. Risk factors. The housing finance industry is highly competitive, especially in the affordable housing space. BHFL could face pressure on lending margins and market share if it is forced to lower rates. Additionally, the company faces geographic concentration risk, with a significant portion of its business concentrated in four states and the New Delhi region.

The Nifty 50 opened at 24,786.30 and slipped to an intraday low of 24,502.15, while the BSE Sensex opened at 81,492.50 before hitting a low of 80,575.09.

Stock market today: Trade setup for Nifty 50 to US dollar; 8 stocks to buy or sell on Wednesday — 4 June 2025
Stock market today: The Indian stock market crashed on Tuesday, 3 June 2025, due to weak global cues and rising concerns over stretched valuations and foreign capital outflow. The Nifty 50 index closed 0.70 per cent lower at 24,542.50 points, compared to 24,716.60 points at the previous market session. The BSE Sensex closed 0.78 per cent lower at 80,737.51 points, compared to 81,373.75 points at the previous stock market session. Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, said, 'Today, the benchmark indices witnessed profit booking at higher levels. The Nifty ended 174 points lower, while the Sensex was down by 636 points. Among sectors, the Private Bank index lost the most, shedding 1.25 per cent, whereas despite the weak market sentiment, the Reality and Defence indices outperformed, rallying over 1 per cent.' 'Technically, after a positive open, the market slipped below the 20-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) or 24,700/81,300, and thereafter, selling pressure intensified. On daily charts, a long bearish candle has formed, and on intraday charts, a lower top formation is holding, which is largely negative,' said the stock market expert. 'We believe that the intraday market texture is weak, but a fresh sell-off is possible only if the level of 24,450/80,500 is breached. Below this, the index could decline to 24,320–24,300/80,100-80,000. On the upside, if the index moves above 24,600/81,000, a quick pullback rally towards the 20-day SMA or 24,700/81,300 could occur. Further upside may also continue, potentially lifting the market up to 24,760/81,500,' said Chouhan. The United States Dollar Index Spot was trading 0.53 per cent higher at 99.226 as of 1:16 p.m. (EDT) on Tuesday, 3 June 2025, according to the Bloomberg Dollar Index. According to a Reuters report, the US Dollar gained as gold dropped due to pressure from a firmer dollar. Investors became cautious ahead of a potential call between U.S. President Donald Trump and China's Xi Jinping. Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, has recommended two stock picks for today. Ganesh Dongre, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Anand Rathi, has suggested three stocks for Wednesday. Shiju Kuthupalakkal, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, also recommended three stocks for 3 June 2025. These include Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers, BSE, Bajaj Finserv, PB Fintech, Chambal Fertilisers & Chemicals, Ideaforge Technology, Graphite India, and Kaveri Seed Company. 1. Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Ltd. (RCF): Buy at ₹ 160.32; Target Price at ₹ 173; Stop Loss at ₹ 154. RCF is currently trading at ₹ 160.32 and continues to exhibit a strong upward trajectory, characterized by a consistent formation of higher highs and higher lows—an indication of sustained bullish momentum. The stock has recently broken above a key resistance level at ₹ 160, reinforcing the continuation of its uptrend. This breakout may attract increased buying interest and could accelerate the ongoing momentum. From a technical standpoint, RCF is trading above its 20, 50, 100, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), all of which are trending upwards. This alignment confirms underlying strength and further supports the prevailing bullish sentiment. A sustained move above the ₹ 165 resistance zone may pave the way for a short-term rally toward the next target of ₹ 173. On the downside, immediate support is seen at ₹ 157, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 68.75 and is rising—indicating strengthening buying momentum without yet entering overbought territory. To manage risk effectively, a stop-loss is recommended at ₹ 154 to protect against potential reversals. In summary, RCF presents a technically strong buying opportunity, supported by positive price structure and momentum indicators. However, traders are advised to implement strict risk management strategies and monitor price action closely near the ₹ 165 level for confirmation of further upside potential. 2. BSE Ltd. (BSE): Buy at ₹ 2,764.9; Target Price at ₹ 2,986; Stop Loss at ₹ 2,668. BSE is currently trading at 2,764.9, maintaining a strong upward trajectory.

A breakout above this levels could further accelerate buying interest. The Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for the 20, 50, 100, and 200-day periods are all trending upwards, reinforcing the bullish outlook. The price is trading above all major EMAs, indicating strong positive sentiment and continued strength in the stock. If BSE manages to close above its level, it could gain further traction toward a short-term target of 2,986. Traders should monitor price action around this resistance zone for confirmation of a breakout. On the downside, immediate support is located at 2,720. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 74.49 and trending upward, reflecting growing buying momentum.
