Macquarie’s “6 Stars” list includes industry leaders such as TCS, HDFC Bank, Sun Pharma, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M), Trent, and PFC.

Among these, Tata Motors stands out with an “Outperform” rating and a price target of Rs 826, as management remains confident about delivering JLR’s net cash balance sheet by March 2025, a milestone that could significantly boost the stock’s outlook.
The “Rising Stars” basket includes IRCTC, Uno Minda, AB Capital, Devayani International, Delhivery, and Lemon Tree Hotels. Macquarie expressed a positive view on the restaurant sector in general, attributing its growth potential to higher discretionary incomes and changing consumption patterns. AB Capital is marked as one of Macquarie’s top picks among financials, with the firm projecting the stock to potentially double in value over the next three years, assigning a 12-month target of Rs 260.
Uno Minda also received an “Outperform” rating with a target price of Rs 1,157, driven by its diversified revenue mix and broad components portfolio, which are expected to support medium-term growth.
