Markets have fallen in the last two weeks and if the trend continues, we see a sharp downside in equities in the coming weeks. Here is what you should be buying now.

|

The indices have fallen a bit in the last few weeks. There are worries that there maybe a further downside in equities as bond yields in the US continue to rise. While we maintain that the short term trend looks down, there are certain stocks that can be bought for the more long-term. These are largely taken from brokerage reports of some of the leading brokers in the country.

 

Escort Tractors

Escort Tractors

Geojit BNP Paribas has placed a buy call on Escort Tractors. The firm has suggested this stock for a number of reasons. It believes that good monsoons and the government's initiative to encourage mechanization will lead to strong demand for tractors.

The firm also believes that CAGR in revenues could be as high as 20 per cent in 2017-18 largely led by the tractor division. The firm also sees a margin expansion of 400 basis points for Escort Tractors.

"Apart from the conducive environment , EL has launched 12 new products including the innovative Anti-Lift Tractor (ALT) to bridge the gap in its portfolio. Secondly, EL separated its dealership for its premium and economy brands, Farmtrac (12.6% Market share) & Powertrac (11.1% market share) respectively to improve its service quality and brand visibility.

Lastly, to address the lower penetration in southern market, EL has taken strategic decisions including focused support on its top dealers which is expected to convert in the form of more volumes," the firm has said in its research report.

Ambuja Cements

Ambuja Cements

Prabhudhas Lilladher has an accumulate call on the stock of Ambuja Cements with a target price of Rs 255.

"Prices are expected to remain firm in ACEM's key markets due to strong demand outlook and low
capacity addition. While, demand had been lacklustre in Q3CY16 primarily due to heavy monsoon. It is likely to revive Q4CY16 onwards on the back of good monsoons, impact of 7th pay commission, govt's strong focus on infrastructure spending (manifested by robust ordering activity) and low cost housing.

Robust prices along with improving demand are likely to support ACEM earnings going forward. Despite cut in earnings, we expect 2‐year CAGR at 22% in EBITDA for CY15‐CY17 on the  back of higher margins," the firm has said in its research report.

Jubilant Life Sciences

Jubilant Life Sciences

Prabhudhas Lilladher has placed a buy call on the stock of Jubilant Lifesciences with a target price of Rs740.
"With sustainable limited competition in Radiology products (unlike peers) in US and better visibility of utilisation of CMO plants, Jubilant's EBITDA margin (30‐34%) in US generics is currently highest among all Indian peers. Net Debt reduction of Rs7.6bn decreased D/E ratio to 1.1 in Q2FY17 from 1.6 in FY16 and promised better cash flow and return ratios in FY17E‐18E. ," the firm said in its research report.

"With improving financial metrics, there was partial rerating in valuation as it ran up 116% in Aug‐Oct 2016. In our SOTP valuation, we increased EV/EBITDA to 12x from 10x in Pharma and to 5x from 3x in LSI and derive new TP at Rs740 (previously Rs484). We downgraded our recommendation to ‘Accumulate' as upside potential reduces to 11% at current market price," the firm has said in its report.
