Outlook: Breakout over Rs 1,550

Aurobindo Pharma Ltd (AUROPHARMA)
Likely target: Rs 600
Upside potential: 9%

While there is bearish “Death Cross” on the weekly chart, having the recent pullback mark of Rs 503 as a breakdown neckline, the present stability over Rs 540 could offer much respite and even may see further upside. Thus, as long as the support of Rs 540 is defended, bulls could ride the stock to Rs 600 with ease. CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART

Rajesh Exports Ltd (RAJESHEXPO) 
Oultook: Rs 520 stays a critical point

Shares of Rajesh Exports conquered the 50-day moving average (DMA) and are struggling to overcome the 100-DMA hurdle. The 100-DMA is set at Rs 620 and 50-DMA is at Rs 571. Moreover, there is a “Death Cross”, which defies breakdown at Rs 520 levels. So, either side move of these averages would determine the next course of trend. A breach of Rs 520 could mean a medium-term downtrend. CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART

Welspun India Limited (WELSPUNIND)
Outlook: 200-WMA holds key level

Welspun India stock endures the 200-weekly moving average (WMA) support located at Rs 72.50-mark. And if the stock succeeds to hold ground at the average, the pullback rally could see a sharp upside towards Rs 90 mark.

InterGlobe Aviation Ltd (INDIGO)
Outlook: 200-WMA remains a support mark

The support of Rs 1,516, which is its 200-WMA, reflects a positive bias on the stock. The short-to-medium term outlook appears robust over this support mark. The stock does have a “Lower low, Lower High” formation, suggesting a negative bias, however until 200-WMA is not dismantled; the counter may not exhibit fresh weakness. CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART
