The markets are on a roll and if you are keen to find out what could be a good buy at current levels, here are some recommendations from the leading domestic brokerage firm Motilal Oswal. They have turned optimistic on select stocks across diverse sectors. According to the estimates by the brokerage house, these stocks offer up to 33% upside potential from current levels.
Let’s take a look at the stocks that the brokerage has recommended with a ‘Buy’ rating –
Motilal Oswal on Sunteck Realty
Motilal Oswal has also maintained a ‘Buy’ rating on Sunteck Realty with a target price of Rs 574. This implies a 33% upside potential from current levels.
According to the brokerage report, the company reported pre-sales of Rs 700 crore in Q2FY26, up 34% year-on-year, while collections increased 24% YoY to Rs 3.3 billion. Sunteck also entered into a joint development project at Mira Road along the Western Express Highway, with a total development value of Rs 1,200 crore.
The report highlighted, “In H1FY26, the company added two projects with GDV of Rs 2,300 crore and a developable area of 0.83 million sq ft.”
Financially, the company delivered a solid performance in the second quarter, with revenue up 49% YoY, and EBITDA margins expanding to 31%. The report added, “Q2 adjusted PAT was up 41% YoY and 46% QoQ. We expect Sunteck Realty to deliver a healthy 21% presales CAGR over FY25–FY28.”
Motilal Oswal on AU Small Finance Bank
Motilal Oswal has reiterated its ‘Buy’ call on AU Small Finance Bank with a target price of Rs 925, indicating a 17% potential upside. The brokerage believes the lender’s solid growth trajectory, improving asset quality, and margin expansion position it well for the next phase of growth.
According to the brokerage report, “AU Small Finance Bank ticked all boxes in its 2Q performance. NIMs surprised the street with an uptick of 5bp, and are expected to continue their upward momentum.”
Growth in the bank’s retail and commercial segments remained strong, while credit costs are expected to ease in the second half. The report further stated that “both advances and deposits grew at a healthy rate, and we expect AUBANK to maintain its growth leadership in the sector.”
Motilal Oswal noted, “Multiple levers are aligning for AU Small Finance Bank — margin expansion from lower cost of funds, credit cost normalization, and renewed traction in the unsecured segment.”
The brokerage has assigned a ‘Buy’ rating on Cello with a target price of Rs 700, indicating around 15% upside potential from current levels.
According to the brokerage report, Cello has faced muted performance in recent quarters due to sluggish consumer demand and higher initial costs linked to its new glassware facility in Falna, Rajasthan. The company’s export business was also impacted by geopolitical pressures, affecting the writing instruments segment.
However, Motilal Oswal expects the company’s performance to improve in the coming quarters as “consumption gradually picks up both for consumerware and writing instrument businesses and efficiency improves in the new plant.”
The report adds that, “We estimate Cello to deliver a CAGR of 15%/17%/18% in revenue/EBITDA/adjusted PAT over FY25–FY28.”
