Monarch's Samvat 2083 Picks: Targets and Today's Prices
Monarch Networth Capital sees potential for a market rally and wealth creation after the sharp corrections of Samvat 2082. The table shows its targets for the stocks named in the headline, with the NSE closing price and the gap to the target by our arithmetic. The brokerage’s targets are its own opinions, and the sources did not give a time frame.
| Stock | Monarch target (Rs) | NSE close (Rs) | Day change | Gap to target |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HDFC AMC | 2,680 | 2,640.00 | +5.39% | About 1.5% |
| Bharat Electronics (BEL) | 449 | 395.10 | -0.73% | About 13.6% |
| State Bank of India (SBI) | 1,265 | 1,006.40 | +2.80% | About 25.7% |
| Vedanta Aluminium (VAML) | 525 | 379.10 | +0.60% | About 38.5% |
| Carborundum Universal | 1,563 | 1,084.60 | -0.80% | About 44.1% |
| CCL Products | 1,415 | 965.20 | +0.08% | About 46.6% |
HDFC AMC jumped 5.39% on 5 November, so most of the gap to Monarch’s target has closed. That matters for anyone reading the headline today, because the picks were published before this move. A pick with a small gap left is a different proposition from one with a wide gap. The remaining seven names were Aster DM Quality Care (Rs 835), Bharti Airtel (Rs 2,270), Blue Star (Rs 1,911), Indegene (Rs 691), Pricol (Rs 800), TBO Tek (Rs 2,043) and VA Tech Wabag (Rs 2,235), but the source gave no current prices for them.

Samvat 2083 Theme 1: The 8th Pay Commission
Monarch expects the 8th Pay Commission recommendations to be accepted in FY28, which would raise incomes for more than 2 crore employees and pensioners. It sees the extra spending flowing into autos, travel and tourism, premium beverages and consumer durables. This is a forecast, since the timing and size of any pay revision are not certain.
Samvat 2083 Theme 2: BFSI
The second theme is banking, financial services and insurance. Monarch cites credit and deposit growth above 15%, asset quality at multi-year bests, valuations below average and leadership changes at several institutions. It also sees select capital-market businesses as steady compounders. The SBI and HDFC AMC picks fit this theme. The Nifty Bank index rose 3.33% on 5 November.
