|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yes Bank | Morgan Stanley | Underweight | 21.07 | 17.00 | 19.3% | Despite SMBC acquiring a 20% stake and agreement for another 4.2%, profitability recovery is expected to remain gradual | 
| Vodafone Idea | HSBC | Reduce | 7.79 | 5.80 | 25.6% | Balance sheet stress continues; tariff hike probability in 2026 unlikely to offset near-term challenges |
