Deven Choksey Research Report

This Diwali, consider the vast opportunities available in the market. By smartly allocating financial investments to promising sectors, you can see your investments grow dramatically over the next decade.

For example, if you invest Rs 20,000 each month in equity with a target 30% compound annual growth rate over next 10 years, you would end up investing about Rs 24,00,000 (Rs 2,40,000 annually) which will grow your wealth to Rs 1.46 Crores

Here are our top stock picks recommended this Diwali

Bajaj Finance - Diversification to drive business momentum

Key investment rationale

• New business lines to drive growth in coming quarters

• Expanding and diversifying the product mix and geographical footprint.

• Strong capitalization.

We assign a price/adjusted book value multiple of 4.6 times on FY26E adjusted book value of Rs 1,753.4 to arrive at a target price of Rs 8,066 per share, an upside of 16.7% over current market price. Accordingly, we maintain our “Buy” rating.

Jio Financial Services - Business ramp up underway

Key investment rationale

• Improving operating profitability with scale up in businesses and higher investment income.

• Multiple product launches in the lending business.

• Partnerships to drive diversification of the product portfolio.

• Strong capital position to drive future growth.

We value the bon-banking financial company based on its September 30, 2024, book value of Rs 215.9 per share. Applying a P/BV multiple of 2.0x, we further discount the value by 20% for the Holdco to arrive at a Target Price of Rs 345 per share.

Given the 10.9% upside over current market price, we maintain our “Hold” rating on the shares of Jio Financial Services.
