Take some money off PSBs & get into 3 largecap private banks; bullish on 4 stocks in auto space: Sanjiv Bhasin

Sanjiv Bhasin, Director, IIFL Securities, says, “private banks are now a much better space to grow rather than some of the PSUs. So, take some money off the PSUs. We are not saying totally exit but get into some of the quality largecap private banks including HDFC Bank. There will be a gradual incline and at a two-time price to book, HDFC Bank seems to be the largecap that can move. We are optimistic on all three – HDFC, ICICI and Kotak.”

The Zee Entertainment stock continues to entertain. This morning again there are reports coming in which suggest that the merger talks are back on the table and probably we will hear more updates in the next 24 to 48 hours. What should one do as an investor or a trader?
Sanjiv Bhasin: Lovely news being played out with both Paytm and Zee being contrarian. We hold both the stocks and we told you, you cannot get entertainment in India of the size of Zee at Rs 14,000 crore. I think there will be a huge breakthrough and if it does become an MNC, then God willing 350, 400, 500, anything is on the cards. All you have to do is go through this in the next 48 hours. I am very positive. Whatever the differences are, both the parties are sitting down. We will leave it up to that.
