Brokerage reports and market trends spotlight two attractive stock picks for investors on July 25, 2025:

1. Jindal Steel & Power – A leading player in the steel and energy sectors, Jindal Steel offers strong exposure to India’s infrastructure growth. Analysts from Motilal Oswal and others see upside of around 9–14 percent, driven by capacity expansion in Odisha, integration of coal supply chains, and rising steel demand. The stock trades below its average target price of ₹1,048—a sign of further upside potential. Despite past short-term dips, its long-term track record remains resilient. 
2. A Small‑Cap Opportunity – Rising interest from foreign investors has boosted several lesser-known small‑cap stocks. Data shows that some have delivered multibagger gains recently, drawing renewed analyst attention. One under‑the‑radar small‑cap adding to this trend was highlighted in ET Market’s “stocks to buy” list for its strong niche positioning and possible up to 8 percent short-term gains.

This pair offers a balanced mix Jindal Steel brings scale and sector strength, while the small‑cap stock offers growth potential driven by renewed investor interest. Both are seen as smart additions to portfolios, but investors should consider their risk profile and investment horizon before entering.
