Bharti Airtel Shows Bullish Reversal Signals With 2070 and 2165 Targets, Says Sumeet Bagadia

Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, recommended buying Bharti Airtel shares as a Holi Pick for 2026. Bagadia set target prices of Rs 2,070 and Rs 2,165. The levels implied about 15.7% upside from the NSE close of Rs 1,872 on March 2, 2026. Bagadia also shared specific entry and support levels.

Bagadia’s trade plan stated: Buy BHARTIARTL @ 1880 & Add Upto 1850 for the Target of 2070/ 2165. Bagadia linked the view to early technical improvement near a key support zone. The analyst also flagged a downside level to manage risk if the price weakens further.

"Bharti Airtel is exhibiting early signs of a potential reversal, reflecting improving buying interest and a gradual shift in sentiment. The stock has consistently found support near 1850 - a level that has been respected multiple times in the past - highlighting strong demand and price stability in this zone. Currently, it is forming a bullish reversal candle around this support area, indicating fresh accumulation at lower levels," commented Sumeet Bagadia.

"From a broader technical perspective, daily momentum indicators further strengthen the positive outlook. The RSI is hovering near the 30 mark and is showing signs of a bullish divergence, suggesting the stock is in the oversold territory from where buying interest typically emerges," Sumeet Bagadia added.

"This setup reflects early indications of a potential trend reversal and improving price momentum. Following a healthy consolidation and renewed strength in price action, the stock appears poised to resume its upward trajectory, which may open the path toward medium- to long-term targets of 2070 and 2165," the analyst stated.

"Investors may consider initiating long positions near current levels, while dips toward 1850 could offer favorable accumulation opportunities. On the downside, 1740 - aligned with the 100-week SMA - should be treated as a crucial positional support to effectively manage risk," Sumeet Bagadia further recommended.
