Analysts Recommend Select BFSI Stocks Including HDFC Life and Home First FinancePreviousNext

Mirae Asset Sharekhan and analyst Shrikant Chouhan recommend select BFSI stocks for long-term investment, highlighting strong performances in NBFCs, asset management companies, and life insurers. Key picks include HDFC Life, noted for its growth in protection products and distribution channels, and Home First Finance, recognized for its focus on affordable housing and stable asset quality. While NBFCs showed robust loan growth and improved margins, insurance companies had mixed results, with life insurers performing well and general insurers facing challenges.
