These 9 banking stocks can give up to 32% returns in 1 year, according to analysts
When it comes to banking sector stocks, learn to deal with two opposite views on the street. Over the next few months, you will hear news of how bank margins have come under pressure. Ignore those headlines, Why? The fact is that, whenever the interest rate cycle turns down, there is a phase when banks see some margin compression. So it is a cyclical phenomenon, and does not change the macro story about why banks should be a part of your portfolio. And the macro story is that banks are the best play when it comes to the growth of the Indian economy.
These 8 banking stocks can give more than 30% returns in 1 year, according to analysts
On Tuesday, it was the banking sector which led the decline in the market. The overall decline was largely due to the street finally waking up to the fact that the additional 25% US tariff hike was inevitable. So, does it mean banking is the sector which is going to be hit the most? The answer is no. Financial services is probably one sector which will have the least direct impact of the US tariffs on its business. But when it comes to stocks, there is a relationship between what is happening and what might happen.
For investors who have ability to think beyond quarterly results: 6 large-cap stocks with an upside potential of up to 31%
One indication that the US Fed is fine with changing its stance on interest rates was enough for the entire sentiment of the US market to change. Before the speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell hinting at a rate cut, the US market was under pressure because there was a feeling on the street that AI has not been as useful as it was expected to in improving corporate profitability. This led to a sharp drop in all AI related stock. For the Indian market, an event awaits on August 27. But events pass, and those thinking long term emerge winners.
These 8 banking stocks can give more than 26% returns in 1 year, according to analysts
Banking is a rare sector in which there is a probability of finding stocks with positive one-year returns. Yes, in the last one year, banking sector stocks (barring small finance banks) have been silent outperformers. As far as the street is concerned, they have been able to manage attacks by bears pretty well. On the real business side, they clearly have been able to control their non-performing assets, or NPAs. Yes, credit growth is not up to the mark, but that is fine; it will get there sooner than later. And we have our reasons for saying so.

These large-caps have ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos and an upside potential of more than 26%
There’s an old market saying: Even when the bulls are in control, never write off the bears. Similarly, when the bears seem to be taking control, don't write off the bulls. Monday was an example of this. Now, how long will the upmove sustain? Especially as there is no clarity on the India-US trade deal or on the threatened additional tariff. At this point, the bulls and bears are pretty evenly matched. It is also likely that the street will tilt toward the bulls over a period of time (given there are no major negative surprises). If that happens, the tilt will first be toward stocks where the quality of the balance sheet is strong and there is little need for further debt in the business.

These 9 banking stocks can give more than 28% returns in 1 year, according to analysts
Recently, there was a report that some large private sector banks were facing an issue, something they never thought they would ever face. The issue? Some of their corporate customers, instead of coming to them, were going either to the bond market or to other resources and raising corporate loans at the same rate as the banks were giving. While this might appear to be a negative development for some banks, overall it is not. Now, why is that?

We are in a phase of uncertainty in the markets thanks to the Indo-US trade deal hanging fire and Trump’s 25% tariff already in play (with the threat of additional penalties to boot). If you are looking to invest at this juncture, it makes sense to target companies and sectors that are focused on the domestic market and are not impacted by any tariffs. Now, there are many on the street who believe that it is the interest rate cycle which plays an important role in how the bottom lines of banks shape up. Of course, lower interest rates may impact margins of banks for a period of time. But that does not mean that they are going to remain under pressure forever. It is a cyclical thing which happens again and again.
These large-caps have ‘strong buy’ & ‘buy’ recos and an upside potential of more than 25%
Cast your eye back to the day last year when the big correction started. Did all stocks start falling only after September 26, 2024, the day the indices peaked? Certainly not. Several stocks (mid-caps, large-caps, even small-caps) had started declining much before that day. The lesson here: Focus on companies where the broader picture of growth is intact. And let the Nifty do what it is doing. Focus on the management, a key driver of earnings. And focus on large-caps. They do better than mid- and small-cap stocks in volatile times.

Trump tantrum: Check the Indian pulse of your portfolio. 71 stocks from 5 sectors for whom Trump may not even be noise
When headlines start screaming about tariff hikes and currency jolts, investors understandably wonder which parts of the Indian economy will remain immune. Yes, the fact is that a sizable slice of our domestic-demand story still moves to an entirely local rhythm: Rupees come in, rupees go out, and customers rarely care what Washington or Beijing is up to. So, when the market is falling and one is thinking of buying or selling, it is probably time to look at whether the company’s fortunes are decided by President Trump's actions or not.
These 10 banking stocks can give more than 25% returns in 1 year, according to analysts
The Q1 earning season has not panned out as expected for a number of sectors. There was simply no major follow-up recovery in many sectors. In the banking sector, however, there is a set of banks that continues to show improvement on a critical parameter: NPAs. This is important because the improvement comes after a long phase of clean-up in the sector. There is another factor worth noting. Banks with higher exposure to the western and southern parts of the country are showing an improvement in numbers. So, there is a case for being bullish about the banking sector. But there is an even bigger case for being selective.
