Sector: Financials (Banks & NBFCs) Stock Picks: Kotak Mahindra Bank, ICICI Bank,

Insight: Sumeet Bagadia recommends ICICI Bank alongside Nestlé and Hindalco. Yes Bank, UCO Bank, and MRPL are in the under‑₹200 league with buy calls by Mehul Kothari. FPIs have started to offload secondary‑market financials but continue backing IPOs. Learning: Watch support levels like Nifty’s 24,900 to understand market bias. Diversify across PSU, private, and small finance banks to balance risk. Younger Bank Nifty may outperform in recovery phases. Tip: Use stop‑losses near ₹19–₹20 for Yes/UCO and monitor Q1 results keenly.
