Selling climax nixed by Thursday's European news rally, but economic challenges could still mean drop in stocks in the near future. Breaking August 9 lows is still possible.

Here is a list of top fifteen stocks that are likely to be in focus today: Tata Motors Ltd: India's largest automobile company, posted its first loss in 25 quarters after a one-time charge of Rs 2,493 crore on account of Jaguar Land Rover vehicles damaged in the Tianjin Port explosion in August, foreign exchange revaluation and higher depreciation and amortisation expenses in the JLR business. Grasim Industries Ltd: The company which decided to merge with group company Aditya Birla Chemicals India LtdBSE -1.38 % earlier this year, plans to refinance the latter's Rs.1,200 crore loans and transfer them to its books once the merger is complete in the December quarter, said a media report. Coal India Ltd: State-run Coal IndiaBSE -1.58 % ( CILBSE -1.58 %) will invest Rs 6,000 crore to set up 1,000 MW of solar power generation capacity over the next five to six years, according to a senior company executive. Tata Steel Ltd: Forced to go for more restructuring of its UK business due to a "challenging marketplace", Tata SteelBSE -0.55 % will sell its Long Products Europe business by the end of the current financial year.

The stock market recovered from earlier losses after a string of poor economic data threatened to curtail recent gains. The housing market may be forming a bottom, however.
