The financial year 2024-25 (FY25) was a fairly volatile year for the stock market, with the benchmark indices taking a sharp knock after scaling record highs in the month of September. Owing to which, almost 50 per cent or roughly around 250 stocks out of the Nifty 500 index are likely to end the FY25 on a negative note.  As many as 44 stocks declined in the range of 30 - 56 per cent, with IndusInd Bank, Sterling Wilson Renewable Energy and Sonata Software taking the worst hit - down over 50 per cent each. Among others, Vodafone Idea, Adani Green, Delhivery, Honasa Consumer, Olectra Greentech, MRPL, Adani Total Gas, Star Health and Allied Insurance Company, Tata Technologies, Tata Motors, Chennai Petroleum, Tata Elxsi and PVR Inox were few of the prominent losers.  On the positive front, 15 stocks more-than-doubled investors' wealth in FY25. PG Electroplast up 458 per cent or 5.6 fold was the top gainer. JSW Holdings and Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders zoomed around 200 per cent each. Transformers & Rectifiers (India), Sarda Energy & Minerals, Wockhardt, Deepak Fertilisers, Garden Reach Shipbuilders, Lloyds Metals, Godfrey Phillips, Nava, PTC Industries, Aegis Logistics, Paytm and LT Foods were the other lead movers.  Against this background, here are 5 stocks that can potentially gain up to 32 per cent in the upcoming financial year 2025-26 (FY26).  Trent  Current Price: ₹ 5,480  Upside Potential: 29.6%  Support: ₹ 5,100; ₹ 5,000; ₹ 4,755  Resistance: ₹ 6,050; ₹ 6,300; ₹ 6,750  Trent witnessed a roller-coaster ride in FY25; the stock zoomed as much as 112 per cent in the first half of the financial year to hit a high of ₹ 8,345, and thereafter tumbled over 43 per cent to a low of ₹ 4,715 in the following 5 months.  Amid this, the stock seems to have found support around its 20-MMA (Monthly Moving Average), which also coincides with the super trend line support. Trent stock has not violated its 20-MMA for almost 10 years now. The stock last closed below the same on a monthly basis in July 2015. As such, this 20-MMA support, which now stands at ₹ 4,755, holds the key for the stock going ahead.

Key hurdles for the stock on its way up can be anticipated around ₹ 6,050, ₹ 6,300 and ₹ 6,750 levels. On the downside, interim support for Trent can be expected around ₹ 5,100 and ₹ 5,000 levels.  ALSO READ: Auto stocks can defy Trump tariff woes, may rally up to 24%; suggest charts  Affle (India)  Current Price: ₹ 1,620  Upside Potential: 32.1%  Support: ₹ 1,468; ₹ 1,380; ₹ 1,300  Resistance: ₹ 1,835; ₹ 1,950; ₹ 2,050  Affle (India) stock has been broadly trending higher for the last five years, and finding support around the trend line from the July 2020 lows in case of dips. The trend line channel indicates that the stock can potentially scale new highs in the coming months, as long the stock holds above the lower trend line which shows support around ₹ 1,300 levels. Near support for the stock exists at ₹ 1,468 and ₹ 1,380 levels. On the upside, the stock can potentially zoom towards ₹ 2,140 levels, with intermediate resistance likely at ₹ 1,835, ₹ 1,950 and ₹ 2,050 levels.

As long as these support levels are protected the stock can resume its uptrend, and potentially surge to ₹ 3,400 levels.
