20,500% return! Shares of this Patna-based retailer turns Rs 1 lakh to Rs 2 crore in 5 years. Too late to buy now?
In what reads like a stock market fairy tale, shares of Aditya Vision , a modest consumer electronics retailer based in Patna, have delivered an astounding 20,483% return over the past five years, transforming a humble Rs 1 lakh investment into a staggering Rs 2 crore fortune. After slipping into bear market in 2025 amid profit booking and muted consumer sentiments, the multibagger smallcap stock is once again seeing fresh momentum following its Q1 results that defied a broader industry slump. The company, which sells durables like air conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Jharkhand, is now seeing bulls returning to the counter despite the shares losing over 18% of their value in 2025.

Try This Right Now Tinnitus Freedom Learn More Aditya Vision (AVL) shares rallied over 8% on Monday to Rs 424 after brokerages declared the company's performance was "unfazed" by the rain storms that battered Q1 demand across the consumer durables sector. Emkay Global 's Devanshu Bansal delivered the most dramatic endorsement, upgrading the stock to BUY from Add while hiking the target price by a hefty 22% to Rs 550. "We upgrade Aditya Vision to BUY from Add, while increasing the target price by 22% to Rs 550 (from Rs 450), following a 14%/3% increase in our target price multiple/estimates," Bansal said, reversing his earlier cautionary stance from May. The upgrade comes as a surprise reversal after Emkay had downgraded the stock in May over concerns about margin risks from inflated AC inventory amid unseasonal rains. "However, AVL has surprised us with a better margin (flat YoY; 30bps beat) and inventory management (down by Rs1.5bn; Rs30mn per store at Q1-end)," Bansal noted. Live Events Also Read | FIIs increase stake in 264 smallcap stocks, 3 of them turn multibagger in 2025. Do you own any? Aditya Vision has built its empire by strategically targeting the underpenetrated Hindi heartland. As the largest electronics retailer in Jharkhand with over 50% market share in Bihar, its business model thrives on a "cluster-based" expansion across these states and Uttar Pradesh. The company sources 85% of its products directly from over 100 brands, allowing for higher margins without resorting to private labels. ICICI Securities maintained its BUY rating with a target price of Rs 450, emphasizing the long-term opportunity. "We believe that low white goods penetration, rising premiumisation and supportive macro factors in UP and Bihar will provide strong growth tailwinds to AVL," the brokerage stated. What makes Aditya Vision's story particularly compelling is how it bucked the broader industry trend in Q1. While most durable goods manufacturers saw their toplines decline 15-30%, AVL reported a 6% increase in revenue, a 2% beat over estimates. Following unseasonal rainfall this summer and weak demand, AVL recorded negative 4% SSSG (same store sales growth). However, the company anticipates the upcoming festive season to turn SSSG-positive. Despite challenging conditions with unusually high rainfall and colder temperatures causing same-store sales growth to dip 4%, the company managed to maintain healthy margins through what analysts called "conscious cost-savings and a reduction in discretionary spends." Also Read | Rs 1 lakh to Rs 20 lakh in 5 years! Force Motors shares deliver jackpot returns with zero analyst coverage The company's aggressive expansion story continues unabated. AVL added 4 stores in Q1 and 3 more in July, taking its total count to 182 stores. Management expects to add 25-30 stores in FY26, putting it on track to cross the 200-store milestone. "The company is on track to open 25 stores during FY26 and is on track to cross 200 stores in FY26. As the new stores mature, we believe the company can deliver 20% Sales/PAT CAGR% over next 2 years," said Sunny Agrawal, Head - Fundamental Research at SBI Securities. He remains constructive on the stock on the back of comfortable valuations. The stock's journey from obscurity to stardom began when it listed on the BSE SME platform in 2016 before migrating to the mainboard in January 2021. The company has since become a poster child for how regional players can capture massive value in India's underpenetrated consumer durables market. ICICI Securities highlighted the structural opportunity: "The penetration of white goods and durable products is significantly lower in key regions such as Bihar, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh. Additionally, there are only a few national chains operating in these areas, and the adoption of e-commerce for white goods and durables is also comparatively limited." Despite the recent volatility, brokerages remain convinced about the company's medium-term prospects. ICICI Securities models AVL to report revenue/PAT CAGRs of 17.3%/19.2% over FY25-27E, with return on capital employed expected to improve to 14.4% in FY27E from 13.4% in FY25. Even Nuvama, while trimming estimates, maintained its BUY rating: "Building in the weakness seen in Q1, we are revising FY26E/27E revenue by -8.7%/-5.3% and PAT by -23.7%/-15.3%. This along with a valuation rollover to Q1FY28E yields a revised target price of INR503. We maintain 'BUY' on the stock given the recent correction and comfortable valuation." The company reported revenue/EBITDA/PAT growth of 5.8%/5.4%/3.9% YoY respectively in Q1FY26, with gross margins expanding 11 basis points even as EBITDA margins remained flat year-on-year. For investors wondering if they've missed the bus on this 206x multibagger, the brokerage consensus suggests the journey may still have several stations left.

Rupee opens weaker on rising trade tensions with US, avoids record low on likely RBI support
The Indian rupee opened weaker on Tuesday, pressured by heightened U.S.-India trade tensions following President Donald Trump's renewed tariff threats. The currency managed to avert a drop past the record low of 87.95 to the dollar, likely due to intervention by the central bank, traders said.

RBI likely to hold rates steady in August, but more cuts may be on the horizon: Nuvama
The Reserve Bank of India ( RBI ) is likely to maintain the benchmark policy rate at 5.5% in its upcoming monetary policy meeting, according to a recent report by Nuvama Institutional Equities . After a surprise front-loading of a 50 basis points rate cut and a shift to a 'neutral' stance in the last policy, the central bank appears to be signalling limited room for further easing.

Donate For Health Donate Now Undo However, Nuvama believes the case for more rate cuts remains strong. Growth Momentum Falters The report underlines that domestic economic activity has visibly slowed in recent quarters. 'Corporates are contending with subdued revenue and profit growth, which in turn is inhibiting capex,' Nuvama noted. Live Events Simultaneously, households are facing weaker income growth and a deceleration in loan growth, dampening consumption demand. Adding to the concerns, government expenditure is unlikely to provide a significant boost, while tax revenues have slipped below the 10% year-on-year mark. External demand also appears fragile amid global trade tensions. Consequently, several economic indicators — including credit growth, exports, auto sales, real estate transactions, and corporate profits — have decelerated to single-digit growth, resembling pre-pandemic patterns. Inflation Under Control On the inflation front, the report highlights a benign landscape. Headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation is near a six-year low, and core CPI (excluding volatile items) has remained below 4% for an extended period. 'Corporate commentary also suggests a lack of pricing power in the economy,' Nuvama stated. Additionally, the global macro backdrop, marked by narrowing US trade deficits and export redirection by surplus nations like China, is expected to remain deflationary. Policy Outlook: Steady Now, Easing Later? Given the current mix of benign inflation and weakening growth, the Nuvama report argues for further monetary easing down the line. Although the RBI is expected to hold rates steady for now, the possibility of returning to an 'accommodative' stance cannot be ruled out if inflation continues to undershoot expectations. 'Systemic liquidity is ample and may remain so, and monetary transmission is progressing well,' the report added, suggesting that RBI has room to maneuver if conditions deteriorate. Global Central Banks May Lead the Way Nuvama also expects global central banks, particularly the US Federal Reserve, to resume rate cuts later this year. This could create further headroom for the RBI to follow suit, especially as fiscal policy in India remains broadly neutral to contractionary. All eyes will be on the RBI's forward guidance, which could offer clues about a potential shift back to an easing bias.
