The Rally
The share price of the company is constantly hitting upper circuit, except for a minor deviation on Tuesday last week. As of March 13, 2024, the shares closed at INR 20.40. However, strong buying interest witnessed on March 14 has continued to propel the stock upwards. In just eight straight sessions, the share price has soared to INR 27.60 apiece on the NSE, marking a remarkable 35% appreciation.
Reasons Behind the Surge
Stock market experts attribute this surge to multiple factors. Firstly, reports are suggesting that Reliance Power has settled its dues with prominent banks such as ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and DBS Bank. This debt reduction news has instilled confidence among investors, leading to increased buying interest. Additionally, rumours of fresh capital infusion into the company have further fueled the optimism surrounding Reliance Power shares.
Expert Analysis
According to a Research Analyst at StoxBox, the recent gains in Reliance Power shares can be largely attributed to the debt reduction buzz. Significance of Capital Infusion news was also highlighted in supporting the stock’s appreciation. He mentions that Reliance Power’s ties with Reliance Commercial Finance have contributed to the recent surge.
