In a special edition -- Champion Stocks -- aired on Zee Business on the occasion of National Sports Day, Zee Business research analysts along with TradeSwift Director Sandeep Jain recommended five stocks that have athletes like power and can turn out to be the winners with stellar returns.

Mirabai Chanu – ITC: Target – 330/360 – Buy  

ITC is a Nifty50 heavyweight and has proved its mettle even in weak market sentiments, as same as Mirabai Chanu, who has won at least one medal in all her international competitions. ITC in its consistent growth has jumped 45% in the last 6 months, research analyst Nupur Jainkunia said 

The one narrative that joins both Mirabai Chanu and ITC is number 200. The weightlifter had lifted around 200 kgs in her latest bout and Rs 200 per share is ITC’s bottom. The counter has a good grip across sectors such as FMCG, paper, and hotels among others.  

Market expert Sandeep Jain said ITC has a deep relation with Rs 200 share price and there have been many memes on the same too. However, ITC has the potential to surge further as same as Chanu. The stock is at PE 23x on cheap valuations, he said, adding that the target would be Rs 330 and 360 apiece. 

Avinash Sable – Devyani International: Target – 195/210 – BUY 

As same as staples runner Avinash Sable, this quick service restaurants company stock – Devyani International is a surprise mover. In the recent Commonwealth Games, Sable won second prize in the 3000-meter staple race like a dark horse, as senior research analyst Kushal Gupta.  

Similarly, Devyani has been a horse of a long race. The company is one of the profitable entities in the new-age segment, before its deadline, Gupta said. According to Sandeep Jain, Devyani has outperformed the sector and market, hence the share price of the company may see levels of Rs 195-210, he suggests a Hold rating. 

Sharath Kamal Achanta – Indian Hotels: Target – 320/350 – Buy  

Ace table tennis player Achanta has won at least 10 international competitions at the age 40. Research analyst Ashish Chaturvedi sees same qualities in Tata Group company – Indian Hotels. 

For over 120 years, Indian Hotels has been in the five-star luxury hotel chain business in India as well as abroad. It has a presence in 10 other countries, Chaturvedi said, adding that the management is aiming for a big turnaround by 2025.

Jainkunia said that the common thing between Sakshi Malik and L&T is that both are powerful and lead India from the front. She added the company’s chairman AM Naik and Sakshi Malik both have been awarded Padma Vibhushan. 

L&T has a good contribution in the Nifty index and it has a strong order book in design, construction, and engineering business with good fundamentals, JainKunia said. 

Meanwhile, Jain said L&T has a strong pedigree and has contributed well in India’s growth story. He sees a target of Rs 1950/2030.
