This is another pharma stock that has been hit by squeeze in margins from the US business. The stock was down 37 per cent during the course of the financial year. Many analysts have a "buy" call on the stock and expect a recovery in the next couple of years.

Tata Motors

Surprisingly, Tata Motors figures in the list of laggards during FY 2017-18. The stock was also down near 37 percent. The fall was despite a sharp recovery in the domestic business of Tata Motors. Most analysts have a "buy" call on the stock as it has hit a new 52-week low.
