RVNL, IRFC to IRCTC: Why are railway PSU stocks rising? EXPLAINED
Railway PSU stocks continued their upward momentum on Thursday, with shares of companies such as RITES, RailTel Corporation of India, and RVNL registering gains of up to 7%. The rally in railway stocks came in tandem with a broader surge in the Indian stock market today, as benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 rose nearly 1% each. RITES share price jumped as much as 7.02%, RailTel shares gained 4.4%, Texmaco Rail & Engineering stock price advanced 3.6%, and Indian Railway Finance Corporation (IRFC) share price rose 2.10%. Meanwhile, shares of Titagarh Rail Systems, Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd (RVNL), and Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) were up over 1% each. The sector has witnessed sustained buying interest on the back of improved sentiment, bolstered by a series of government orders and expectations of increased capital expenditure (capex) in the railway space. In a recent development, RailTel Corporation of India announced that it has received a Letter of Intent (LoI) from the Motor Vehicles Department, Maharashtra. The order pertains to the design, implementation, operation, and maintenance of an Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) across identified blackspots in the Vidarbha Circle for a period of 10 years. According to the company's regulatory filing, the estimated order value is ₹ 274.40 crore, with the final contract value to be confirmed upon issuance of the purchase order. Analysts believe that the rally in railway stocks is being driven by the dual triggers of robust government order flows and expectations of enhanced public sector investment, further supported by technical indicators pointing to an uptrend. The Railway sector's market capitalization rebounded from its lows, recording a CAGR of 46% over the same period, while its aggregate PAT grew at a CAGR of 15%. According to a report by Motilal Oswal Financial Services, strong order book growth and a recovery in Mid- and Small-cap sentiments have fueled the rerating trends in railway and defence sectors. 'The rally in railway stocks is largely driven by recent government contract announcements and the anticipated capex push. In the current scenario, investors may consider railway stocks that have strong capital investment visibility and are trading at or below their sector's average price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio,' said VLA Ambala, Co-Founder, Stock Market Today. Several PSU stocks currently meet these criteria, which is leading to heightened investor interest, Ambala added. Vinit Bolinjkar, Head of Research at Ventura Securities, echoed similar views. 'Railway stocks are expected to perform well in light of the strong capex figures reported alongside the Q4 GDP data,' he noted.

Ircon Stock Soars After Rs 898 Crore Project Boost
Shares of Ircon International Ltd went up by almost 14% on Wednesday. This happened after the company won several new projects and because people are feeling positive about the government spending more on infrastructure. By 2:47 pm, Ircon's stock was trading at Rs 220.97, which is Rs 27.03 higher than the day before. It reached a high of Rs 221.03 during the day. The stock went up even though the overall market was not doing very well. In May, Ircon got new projects worth over Rs 898 crore. These include work in railways, power, and industrial development. Some important projects are: A project worth Rs 187 crore to build a rural industrial park in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. A Rs 458.14 crore project for civil construction work at the Tato-I Hydro Electric Project in Arunachal Pradesh. A Rs 253.6 crore contract to install the KAVACH train safety system on 778 km of railway lines in the Bengaluru and Mysuru areas. Other railway-related company stocks also went up: RITES rose by 6.5% Texmaco Rail & Engineering went up 8% Titagarh Rail Systems increased by 4% HBL Power Systems gained over 3% Even though Ircon's earnings in the last quarter were not strong—its profit fell by 3.8% to Rs 246.8 crore, and its operating profit (EBITDA) dropped by 56.3%—investors are hopeful because of the new contracts and future spending on infrastructure. Analysts are still careful and have set an average target price of Rs 158, which is lower than the current price. But the stock's rise in the last three months, especially today's jump, shows that people trust Ircon's ability to handle big projects and grow in the future.
