Stocks to buy: SBI, Tata Motors, ACC, among six October stock picks by Deven Choksey

Indian stock market commenced October on a subdued note, with benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 declining approximately 1.5% during the first two trading sessions of the month. The stock market witnessed a sharp downturn on Thursday, driven by weak global cues, as escalating tensions in the Middle East, particularly the Israel-Iran conflict, weighed heavily on investor sentiment.

DRChoksey FinServ has recommended six stocks to buy this month which it projects can have an upside potential of up to 28%.

The October stock picks by Deven Choksey Research include ACC, Glenmark Pharma, Godrej Consumer Products, Rossari Biotech, State Bank of India (SBI) and Tata Motors.

Here are the top stocks to buy in October:
