Shares to buy in short term: Mehta Equities' Riyank suggests RIL, Tech Mahindra, Infosys stock to buy in near term
The Nifty 50 index started at 25,129.70, recording an increase of 36.30 points or 0.14%, while the BSE Sensex index climbed to 82,338.94, with a rise of 85.48 points or 0.10%.
The recovery in Indian markets was also supported by the global environment. US markets concluded the day slightly in the green. This came after stronger-than-anticipated economic data from China, where GDP expanded by 5.2 percent in the second quarter, demonstrating continued economic strength.
Riyank Arora from Mehta Equities is of the opinion that the general trend for Nifty 50 continues to be favourable, and traders ought to consider purchasing during dips while monitoring momentum around the 25,000 level for any signals regarding direction. Riyank Arora suggests three stocks to buy in the near-term. Here's what he says about the overall market.
Nifty 50 is currently hovering near 25,100, showing signs of steady consolidation after a strong upward move. The immediate support lies at 25,100, followed by 25,000 as a key short-term floor. On the upside, resistance is seen at 25,200, and a breakout above this could resume the bullish trajectory. The overall trend remains positive, and traders should look to buy on dips, keeping an eye on momentum near the 25,000 mark for any directional cues.
Bank Nifty is trading around 56,850, staying comfortably within the bullish range. Support is placed at 56,500, which is critical to maintain the positive structure. On the upside, 57,250 stands as the next resistance zone. A breakout above this level can trigger fresh momentum toward higher targets. The trend remains bullish, supported by strong participation from frontline banking stocks and improving market breadth.
Riyank Arora recommends these three stocks in the short term - Reliance Industries, Tech Mahindra, and Infosys.
Buy | CMP: ₹ 1,490 | Stop Loss: ₹ 1,450 | Target: ₹ 1,550
Reliance is showing early signs of a breakout after reclaiming the ₹ 1,480–1,490 zone with strong volumes. The stock is trading above key moving averages, and momentum indicators like RSI are turning positive. A close above ₹ 1,500 could add to the upward thrust. Traders can look for a target of ₹ 1,550 while keeping a stop loss at ₹ 1,450.
Buy | CMP: ₹ 1,574 | Stop Loss: ₹ 1,530 | Target: ₹ 1,650
Tech Mahindra is forming a base around the ₹ 1,540–1,560 zone and has now moved past short-term resistance. RSI is picking up, and MACD has indicated a positive crossover. With renewed interest in IT stocks, Tech Mahindra could see a move toward ₹ 1,650. A stop loss at ₹ 1,530 is suggested for risk control.
Buy | CMP: ₹ 1,575 | Stop Loss: ₹ 1,540 | Target: ₹ 1,650
Infosys is consolidating above its 20-day moving average and looks poised for a breakout above the ₹ 1,580 mark. Technical indicators are showing strength, with RSI trending upwards and MACD supporting the bullish bias. A sustained move above ₹ 1,580–1,600 could trigger a rally toward ₹ 1,650. Keep a stop loss at ₹ 1,540 to manage downside risk.

Trump frustrated with India trade talks, sees 25% tariff as remedy: White House aide
US President Donald Trump is 'frustrated' with the progress of trade deal talks with India and believes that imposing a 25 per cent tariff will 'remedy' the situation. The tariff on Indian goods is set to take effect on August 1, after Washington and New Delhi failed to finalise an interim trade agreement before Trump's self-imposed August 1 deadline.'Well, India has had a market that's been pretty much closed to American products, and we've been wide open to theirs. And I think President Trump is frustrated with the progress we've made with India, but feels that a 25 per cent tariff will address and remedy the situation in a way that's good for the American people,' said White House economic adviser Kevin also announced an additional penalty, criticising India for its continued purchases of oil and military equipment from Russia. In a post on Truth Social, he wrote: 'Remember, while India is our friend, we have, over the years, done relatively little business with them because their Tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the World, and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non-monetary Trade Barriers of any Country. Also, they have always bought a vast majority of their military equipment from Russia, and are Russia's largest buyer of ENERGY, along with China, at a time when everyone wants Russia to STOP THE KILLING IN UKRAINE — ALL THINGS NOT GOOD! INDIA WILL THEREFORE BE PAYING A TARIFF OF 25%, PLUS A PENALTY FOR THE ABOVE, STARTING ON AUGUST FIRST. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. MAGA!'The decision comes after the failure to reach an interim trade deal, with Trump reportedly dissatisfied with the outcomes secured by his negotiators. 'What's going to happen is that India is going to cut their prices to the US in order to maintain their market share,' Hassett added. 'Then they might reconsider their practices, which have led to this higher rate. And over time, I would guess the Indian firms will be onshoring production in the US, and Indians might even open their markets more to us, so that we reconsider a future trade deal.'INDIA'S RESPONSE TO TRUMP'S 25% TARIFFIn response, India's Ministry of Commerce and Industry stated that it is assessing the impact of the US move, but emphasised that national interest remains paramount. "The Government attaches the utmost importance to protecting and promoting the welfare of our farmers, entrepreneurs, and MSMEs. The Government will take all steps necessary to secure our national interest, as has been the case with other trade agreements, including the latest Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement with the UK,' the ministry reiterated its commitment to working toward a 'reciprocally advantageous trade agreement,' but with Trump escalating pressure tactics, the path forward remains uncertain.- Ends

The Chief Minister expressed commitment to rectifying the 'past mistakes', said an official release.
