Aakash K Hindocha recommends ZF Commercial Vehicle, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, and BPCL as top stock picks for December 18, 2025, with bullish Nifty/Bank Nifty outlook.


Nuvama Professional Clients Group's Deputy Vice President - WM Research, Aakash K Hindocha, has released his top stock recommendations for today, highlighting ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems India, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, and BPCL as promising buys.

Hindocha also shared a positive outlook on the Nifty and Bank Nifty indices, anticipating continued upward movement for both.

**Index Predictions:**

  • Nifty:** After reclaiming the 26000 level in its last weekly close, the Nifty has negated its short-term downside risk from the previous week. It has re-entered a short-term buy-on-dip zone, targeting 26250 and 26450.
  • Bank Nifty:** The Bank Nifty is trading between 58750 and 59500. A breakout above 59500 is expected to restore its leadership position relative to the Nifty, potentially triggering a rapid short covering rally, with support around 59200.

**Stock Recommendations:**

  • ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems India (ZFCVINDIA)**
  • Last Closing Price (LCP): 14705
  • Stop Loss: 14150
  • Target: 16400
  • The stock has gained momentum following an eighteen-month trendline breakout earlier this month. A bullish cup and handle breakout is also visible on the daily charts, resulting in a fresh 52-week high. Technical analysis suggests a potential appreciation of 8-10%.
  • Glenmark Pharmaceuticals (GLENMARK)**
  • Last Closing Price (LCP): 1948
  • Stop Loss: 1890
  • Target: 2115
  • After a period of consolidation that retested its 2024 highs, Glenmark has broken out of a six-month consolidating trendline, which resembles a bullish pole and flag pattern on daily and weekly charts. This structure indicates the potential for renewed bullish momentum.
  • BPCL**
  • Last Closing Price (LCP): 368
  • Stop Loss: 358
  • Target: 392
  • Energy stocks have experienced positive momentum recently. BPCL's weekly charts show a successful retest of a large bullish cup and handle breakout that began six weeks ago. A smaller timeframe also reveals a developing pole and flag pattern, suggesting a potential breakout to new all-time highs.
