This stock has been a laggard and has not moved in tandem with Nifty, Technical Analyst Nilesh Jain of Anand Rathi said. This stock is now ready for an upward move he added. It has faced a similar fate just like other big counters like Bharti Airtel, ITC and SBI. 

The charts show a somewhat similar pattern with SBI which is indicating that a strong rally could be expected once the stock achieves a breakout, Jain said. 

Jain said that he expected the stock to reach around Rs 1,400, almost near its 52-week high. The stock has failed to breach the levels of Rs 1800, over quite a few years.  

There is already a bottom around Rs 800 and it is unlikely that the stock would hit below this level. The risk-reward ratio is attractive and it is advised that the fresh position should be made on dips.
