The year 2012 is ending on a strong note as far as stock markets are concerned. The BSE Sensex of 30 companies has jumped nearly 26 per cent over the last 12 months as compared to 23 per cent gains in Japan's Nikkei 225 and nearly 6 per cent gains in the Dow Jones Average. The strong gains have come on the back of $24 billion in foreign funds, the highest since 2010.

  1. Morgan Stanley: The most bullish call has come from Morgan Stanley, which expects Sensex to hit 23,097 in 2013, indicating an 18 per cent rise in the next year.
  2. Citi: Sensex target of 20,800 implies 7 per cent upside from current levels. Infosys (upside of 17 per cent), Apollo Hospital (upside of 9 per cent) and Axis Bank (upside of 6 per cent) are the top picks. (Read: Citi sets 2013 Sensex target at 20,800; Infosys among top bets)
