The stock has meaningfully appreciated in the past year, led by a nearly doubling of profit in FY23. The brokerage firm also added that the stock is cheap at 12 times FY25 earnings and does not capture the long-term growth potential of Titagarh Rail Systems.
The stock has shot up over 300 percent in the past year and has risen over 1,300 percent in three years.
Titagarh Rail Systems plans to invest Rs 600 crore over the next three years and recently proposed raise Rs 289 crore by selling shares to a large investor. This, along with strong cash flow expected in the future, would help the wagon maker meet its growth goals, the brokerage said.
