Bullish on MRPL on better earnings outlook: Pankaj Pandey, ICICIdirect.com

In an interview with ET Now, Pankaj Pandey, Head Research, ICICIdirect.com, shares his views on markets. Excerpts:

ET Now: What stocks do you like in this kind of an market?

Pankaj Pandey: We are quite stock-specific in this market. For example, we like MRPL within the oil and gas pack wherein we are expecting good set of numbers. We like NBCC because of good business model, plus we would expect the real estate division to do well even in this particular quarter. We like some of the smaller cap companies like EPC Industries which is into micro irrigation space. They have got a market share of 5% and it is M&M Group company.

So, these are the kind of names which we like besides the large cap what we discussed. We like Coal India even at current levels because we would want to believe that this is one company which one can look at in the entire metals and mining space.
