    Equity benchmark indices took a breather from an unabated record-breaking rally in the last few trading sessions and ended flat on Wednesday. Amid weak global cues and fall in HDFC twins, Sensex slid 33 points to settle at 65,446 and Nifty gained 9 points to end at 19,398. Meanwhile, broader markets showed resilience and notched new fresh high intraday.

    From the Nifty pack, top gainers were Bajaj Auto, Divi’s Laboratories, Hero Motocorp, HDFC Life and Maruti Suzuki.

    “The Nifty remained in sideways movement over the past two days, suggesting a lack of demand at higher levels. However, the overall trend remains strong, as the index continues to sit comfortably above critical moving averages, indicating absence of aggressive short positions at this time.

    "On the higher end, resistance is placed between 19,450 and 19,500, which the Nifty might face some difficulty in surpassing. Looking ahead, it is expected that the Nifty will likely continue to trade sideways, as long as it sustains within the range of 19,200 to 19,500. This implies range-bound trades unless there is a directional breakout," said Rupak De, Senior Technical analyst at LKP Securities.
    Here are the stock recommendations for Thursday:
