Nifty 50 closed 23,869.60 (-0.53%), 4th losing session. India VIX near 13.14, up ~5% this week. Infosys CMP Rs 1,047, MOFSL Rs 940, Sona BLW Rs 720. All reacting to Q1 FY27 results.

The intraday stocks for today, as identified by Univest analysts Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla, are Infosys, Motilal Oswal Financial Services and Sona BLW Precision Forgings, three names carrying fresh Q1 FY27 result catalysts into a session where the Nifty 50 is working through its fourth consecutive losing streak.

The Nifty 50 closed 0.53 percent lower at 23,869.60 on 23 July, with India VIX holding near 13.14 after climbing around 5 percent through the week, a signal that intraday swings could be sharper than usual today. Rising crude oil prices near a six week high, continued FII selling and a weaker rupee remain the key overhangs on the broader market, making stock specific setups with clearly defined risk more relevant than an outright directional bet on the index today.

Why These Intraday Stocks for Today Were Picked

Infosys: CMP Rs 1,047, Target Rs 1,065-1,080, SL Rs 1,025

Ankit Jaiswal has flagged Infosys for a technical bounce setup after the stock fell to a low of Rs 1,032 on results day before closing at Rs 1,047, even as the company posted a 12.2 percent year on year rise in net profit to Rs 7,769 crore. The stock has declined for four straight sessions heading into results, and Ankit Jaiswal is watching for a relief bounce toward the Rs 1,065 to Rs 1,080 zone on above average volume, with a stop below the recent low near Rs 1,025 to cap downside if the guidance cut concerns keep weighing on the stock through the session.

Motilal Oswal Financial Services: CMP Rs 940, Target Rs 955-970, SL Rs 925

Kunal Singla is tracking Motilal Oswal Financial Services after the stock slipped to a weekly low of Rs 929 despite the company reporting a 9.6 percent year on year rise in net profit and assets under management crossing Rs 2.12 lakh crore for the first time. Kunal Singla sees the gap between weak recent price action and strong fundamentals as a setup worth watching for a bounce toward Rs 955 to Rs 970, with a stop loss at Rs 925 below this week’s low.

Sona BLW Precision Forgings: CMP Rs 720, Target Rs 740-755, SL Rs 700

Ankit Jaiswal has also flagged Sona BLW Precision Forgings ahead of a fresh reaction to its Q1 FY27 results announced this morning, where the auto components maker reported a 46.7 percent year on year jump in net profit to Rs 178.5 crore and a 52.4 percent rise in revenue to Rs 1,301.2 crore. With the stock trading in a Rs 701 to Rs 739 range through the week on elevated volume, Ankit Jaiswal is watching for a breakout toward Rs 740 to Rs 755 if the strong numbers draw fresh buying interest, with a stop below Rs 700.

Trading Rules for Today’s Intraday Picks

Wait for the Opening Range: Let the first 15 minutes of trade form before entering any of the intraday stocks for today, since gap openings driven by Q1 FY27 results can reverse quickly once the initial reaction fades.
Enter on Dips to the Zone: Buy Infosys near Rs 1,040 to Rs 1,050, Motilal Oswal Financial Services near Rs 935 to Rs 943, and Sona BLW near Rs 715 to Rs 725 on a dip into the defined entry zone rather than chasing a gap up.
Book Partial Profits at Target 1: Book roughly half the position at Target 1 for each stock and move the stop loss to entry once Target 1 is hit, protecting capital while letting the rest of the position run toward Target 2.
Respect the Stop Loss: With India VIX elevated near 13.14 after a sharp weekly rise, moves can extend further and faster than usual. Do not hold any of today’s intraday stocks beyond the defined stop loss levels.

Risks of Intraday Trading Today

Elevated India VIX: VIX near 13.14 after climbing about 5 percent this week points to wider intraday swings and potential slippage on entries and exits. Use limit orders rather than market orders, especially in the opening and closing minutes.
Continued FII Selling: Persistent foreign institutional investor selling and a weaker rupee have driven the Nifty 50 lower for four straight sessions, and a resumption of heavy selling could pressure even fundamentally strong names on this list.
Crude Oil and Geopolitical Risk: Brent crude near a six week high above 98 dollars a barrel, tied to ongoing West Asia tensions, remains a swing factor for broader sentiment that could override stock specific setups if headlines worsen.

Conclusion

The best intraday stocks for today, as identified by Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla, are Infosys (target Rs 1,065 to Rs 1,080, SL Rs 1,025), Motilal Oswal Financial Services (target Rs 955 to Rs 970, SL Rs 925) and Sona BLW Precision Forgings (target Rs 740 to Rs 755, SL Rs 700), all carrying fresh Q1 FY27 catalysts into a session shaped by elevated volatility and a fourth straight losing streak for the Nifty 50. Traders should size positions conservatively given the current VIX level and consult a SEBI-registered advisor before acting on any intraday setup.
