Coforge was downgraded by the global brokerage firm Jefferies as well as InCred. Jefferies cut down its target price from Rs 7,650 to Rs 4,290 while InCred downgraded the stock from Rs 5,871 to Rs 4,431 as it missed the overall estimates, and the FY25 guidance seemed weak.

4/7
BSE
Jefferies reduced its rating on the BSE from ‘buy’ to ‘hold’ and slashed the target price to Rs 2,900 from Rs 3,000 as a higher regulatory fee by Sebi may create a near term effect, which will also impact the EPS by 15-18%.
5/7
Cummins
The downgrade for Cummins comes from Kotak Securities primarily after the recent 90% uptick of the stock in the past 6 months. The stock has been rerated to ‘add’ from an earlier ‘buy’ while the target price has been increased from Rs 2,750 to Rs 3,450.
6/7
Indus Towers
Domestic brokerage Kotak Securities downgraded Indus Towers to ‘reduce’ while it increased the target price from Rs 245 to Rs 340 as it believes that the long-term outlook of the stock is still dependent on VI’s revival.
7/7
Trent
Post an amazing Q4 earnings, Trent got an upgrade from Antique Securities to ‘buy’ with a target price of Rs 4,876. The company has recorded a healthy revenue growth of 37% on a 5-year CAGR basis. Store expansion of Zudio and improvement in profitability due to operating leverage are other reasons for the optimism in Trent.
