Axis Securities has laid out its top stock recommendations for December 2025, highlighting opportunities across large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap segments. The brokerage expects continued momentum in equities following a sharp rally in Nifty 50, driven by strong earnings, tariff optimism, and improving consumption trends.
Axis Securities noted that, Nifty 50 saw a comeback with a 1,500 points rally. Axis noted that this was led by better-than-expected earnings performance for the first half, optimism building for 15% tariffs for India, early signs of consumption pickup, stable currency, relative attractiveness in valuations versus other emerging markets, and positive sentiments.
In its latest report, Axis Securities has identified 15 stocks across sectors as top picks for December 2025. These include financial heavyweights, consumer names, and high-growth mid- and small-cap plays.
