With the upcoming one-hour special trading session (Muhurat Trading) on October 21 marking the beginning of Samvat 2082, analysts have flagged eight stocks recommended for either buy or sell based on technical setups and earnings momentum. The broader benchmarks posted four consecutive days of gains, with the Nifty 50 closing near 25,843 and the Sensex around 84,363. Structural themes such as GST 2.0 reforms, strong Q3 earnings expectations and improving mid-cap valuations underpin the recommendations. Market strategists emphasise a selective stock-specific approach rather than broad sector bets given current valuations.
