Top Stocks To Buy - Yes Bank

Baliga picked Yes Bank as his top stock pick with a long term view. The biggest positive for this stock happened in March 2020, when it witnessed a fixed and normal deposit worth over Rs 1 lakh cr despite the moratorium in place. Usually, after the moratorium the banks are short on deposits. The management of the bank has even said that the April deposits are higher than the last 12 months monthly deposits. 

The stock is currently trading around Rs 18.75. The Provisioning Coverage Ratio for the bank is nearly 74 per cent – which is highest among all banks. The current management of the bank is professional which does not need to hide anything. Moreover, top FIIs including Tilden Park have put money in the company.

Ambareesh Baliga's advice to investors who have bought into the FPO should not sell the stock for profit. Yes Bank stock should be held with a long term view. He puts the target price between Rs 22 and Rs 40 over the next 18-36 months.
