Post-election performers: 12 stocks with score improvement and upside potential of 21 to 40% in one year

Just before the national election results came in, there was expectation that sectors like defence, railways and PSUs would continue to do well. But they got into stock specific mode and witnessed some consolidation. There are, however, certain stocks from across sectors that have performed well in the last four months. These range from telecom and packaging to engineering and chemicals. Among these, all have seen an uptick in their analyst score, two have seen their rating upgraded, and a majority have outperformed the indices since the election results. If one looks at analysts recommendations and projections, they are optimistic about these stocks.
