Five stock recommendations and reported levels

| Sky Gold | ₹885 | ₹970 | ₹843 | ₹85 | ₹42 |

Distance columns are simple arithmetic differences between the reported buy price and target or stop-loss, in rupees per share. They are not forecasts of returns: actual execution, transaction costs, price movement and slippage can change an investor’s outcome.
Market context in the October 8 report
LiveMint reported that the Nifty 50 closed at 22,231.80, down 371.25 points (1.64%) for the session, while the Bank Nifty closed at 54,515.05, down 540.50 points (0.98%). These are the session figures printed in that article, not current market data.
#1 Best Overall
Bagadia described the Nifty’s short-term structure as weak, with support at 22,000–22,150 and first resistance at 22,400–22,500. The report gave the index RSI as 27.55 and said the oversold reading could allow a technical bounce but did not confirm a reversal. Those levels and that interpretation refer to the October 8 session; they should not be treated as current support or resistance.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.What the published calls do—and do not—establish
- The five names and price levels are attributed to Bagadia by LiveMint; they are not a direct Choice Broking research note in the material available here.
- The report does not establish the company-specific rationale behind each recommendation, whether the entry prices were available to a particular reader, or what happened to the stocks after publication.
- The figures are dated analyst-call levels, not a current quote, a personalized recommendation, or evidence that a target or stop-loss was hit.
LiveMint characterized the recommendations as those of individual analysts or broking firms rather than its own, and advised readers to consult certified financial experts before making investment decisions. Verify current prices and obtain advice suited to your financial circumstances before acting.
