HUL shares slipped nearly 1% after appointing a new CFO, but SEBI analyst Deepak Pal sees festive demand, institutional buying, and a technical breakout driving gains. He pegs short-term targets at Rs 2,750-2,775 and medium-term upside to Rs 2,900. Strong brand equity, cost cuts, and rural recovery bolster fundamentals. Pal suggests buying on dips for long-term compounding.
