10 NSE Small-cap Stocks To Watch for in 2025

(0)

Many investors look to small cap stocks for opportunities to tap into emerging industries or companies that could become tomorrow’s giants.

Small Cap stocks

According to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), small-cap stocks refer to the shares of companies ranked below the top 250 in market capitalization. SEBI classifies stocks based on their market capitalization, with large-cap stocks comprising the top 100 companies, mid-cap stocks covering those ranked from 101 to 250, and small-cap stocks encompassing companies ranked 251 and below.

While small-cap stocks typically have higher growth potential, they also carry greater volatility and risk, making them more suitable for investors with a higher risk appetite

A good stock screener can help identify such opportunities, and stock advisory services can provide expert guidance in choosing the best picks.

Why Focus on Small Cap Stocks in 2025?

With the global economy stabilizing and India’s domestic growth gaining momentum, several small cap companies are poised to benefit from sectoral momentum. Furthermore, many 52-week low stocks present opportunities for savvy investors to buy low and reap rewards as the market rebounds.
