For ICICI Securities, the BFSI space witnessed healthy earnings upgrades (led by corporate banks), while marginal upgrades were witnessed in the FMCG, IT and oil & gas space.

Short-term traders who missed the rally can look to buy the stock now or on dips for a possible target above Rs 500 in the next 3-4 weeks, suggest experts.
