Stocks to Watch, Feb 6

 

ITC Q3 results preview

 

Brokerages tracked by Business Standard predict that ITC's adjusted net profit will decline by 3.5 per cent in the quarter ending December 31, 2024, averaging Rs 5,151.12 crore, compared to Rs 5,340 crore in the same period last year. This decline is primarily attributed to the lower tax rate in the base quarter. 

  

Hero MotoCorp Q3 preview 

Analysts expect steady performance for Hero MotoCorp, with revenue growth driven more by higher average selling prices (ASPs) than by increased sales volume. Revenue is projected to rise 3 per cent to 5 per cent year-on-year, supported by a stronger product mix and the growing popularity of 125cc motorcycles. Margins may see a small decline or slight improvement, while Ebitda and net profit are expected to grow by 4 per cent to 5 per cent.

State Bank of India (SBI), the largest government-owned bank, is expected to deliver strong results for the October-December quarter. Analysts predict that the public sector bank (PSB) will report double-digit net profit growth, driven by robust loan book expansion and stable asset quality.
