Should you buy shares of Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. at the current market price? Is Life Insurance Corporation of India a good choice from a long-term perspective? Should you keep holding UPL Ltd.? Is it the right time to exit Central Depository Services (India) Ltd. and book profit?

Manish Chowdhury, head of research at StoxBox, and Vikas Jain, head of research for Reliance Securities answered these investor queries and more on NDTV Profit's Ask Profit show.

HAL (CMP: Rs 3,779.15)

Chowdhury: Buy

  • One of the best players in the defence sector.

  • Should be bought at current levels.

UPL (CMP: Rs 566.95)

Chowdhury: Buy

  • Offers a good risk-reward at the current price.

  • Most of the negatives of the business are already priced in.

Axis Bank (CMP: Rs 984.70)

Jain: Hold

  • Stay invested for the next three to six months.

  • Bank Nifty shaping up for a breakout.

  • Probable price should be Rs 1,080-Rs 1,100 over the next two-three months.

KPIT Technologies (CMP: 1,432.95)

Chowdhury: Hold

  • Hold from a one-year perspective.

  • Guidance for the next financial year gives hope for intact earnings trajectory.

  • Most of the negatives are priced in.

MMTC (CMP: Rs 67.60)

Chowdhury: Sell

Adani Power (CMP: Rs 508.80)

Chowdhury: Hold

  • Earnings trajectory to improve from hereon.

  • Valuations look 'juicy' at this point in time.

  • Hold the stock.

CDSL (CMP: Rs 1,270.8)

Jain: Hold

  • Stock is oversold.
