Shares to buy: Here are the top stocks with minimum risk, say experts

After three consecutive trading session in previous week, Indian equity inestors are in a limbo as to which trajectory BSE Sensex and Nifty would take in coming sessions. Their situation becomes further tricky when we look at fast approaching Lok Sabha Polls in India and not much expectations from the budget coming on February 1. However, market experts are of some othr opinion.

Rajiv Singh, CEO, KARVY, says, “The calendar year 2018 has been a marginal year for investors with the Nifty giving 3 per cent return. Investors would do well to moderate their expectations for index returns in calendar year 2019. We expect Nifty to face resistance around 11750 levels followed by 12000 levels for the year ahead. The auto industry is nearing to it's next down cycle. However, as the industry is shifting towards improvisation in technology and comfort, we think that there is more scope for expansion." Expecting a bull run again after some profit booking sessions he added, "Giving our expectation for Nifty to touch 14000 levels in 2019, we prefer cyclical sectors,  Banks and Capital Goods.”
