Adani Energy Solutions shares down 36% from peak. Can the stock breakout above Rs 940 after Q1 earnings?
ADVERTISEMENT The stock has been locked in a sideways trend, with no clear directional bias, as technical indicators flash mixed signals. Despite a 3% gain over the past month, the shares are down 3% in the last two weeks.
While the stock is trading above its long-term moving averages, it remains below several key short-term levels, suggesting a loss of momentum ahead of the results. Since the start of the year, shares are up 7.2%, but they've declined 8% over the past three months. The stock trades at 4.75 times its book value.
Nilesh Jain, Head VP – Technical and Derivatives Research at Centrum Broking, said the 200-day moving average at Rs 840 is a critical support level. 'The important support is at Rs 840, that's 200-DMA and if it breaks the same then further fall towards Rs 800 can't be ruled out. On the contrary, a break above Rs 900 will open upside towards Rs 960 levels. At present it's moving sideways and there is no clear trend now.'Laxmikant Shukla, Senior Manager – Technical Analyst at YES Securities, said the stock is stuck between short-term weakness and long-term resilience. 'The stock is currently exhibiting weak near-term momentum as it trades below its short-term (20-DMA) and medium-term (50-DMA) moving averages, suggesting persistent selling pressure. However, the fact that it continues to hold above its long-term support levels (100-DMA and 200-DMA) indicates that the broader uptrend remains intact.'
ADVERTISEMENT Shukla said the stock is consolidating between Rs 840 and Rs 885. 'The stock remains in corrective mode as it trades below its 20 and 50-day SMAs, lacking any significant base formation or reversal signals. For trend reversal confirmation, watch for: 1) strong buying interest at 840 support and 2) decisive breakout above 885 with volume support.''Adani Energy Solutions is currently trading in a sideways range, forming a symmetrical triangle pattern on the daily chart,' said Mandar Bhojane, Senior Research Analyst at Choice Broking. 'The stock is taking support at the 100-EMA but remains below the 20, 50, and 200-day EMAs, indicating cautious undertone ahead of its Q1 FY26 results. A decisive close above the Rs 885 level could open the gates for a short-term rally towards Rs 950–980, while a breakdown below Rs 860 may trigger a correction towards Rs 820–800 levels.'
ADVERTISEMENT 'The stock has immediate support near Rs 840, and tomorrow's earnings could act as a key trigger to break this consolidation zone and define the next directional move,' said Bhojane.Drumil Vithlani, Technical Research Analyst at Bonanza, said the stock appears to be in a base-building phase, with its next move hinging on whether it can decisively clear the Rs 880 mark. 'Key support lies at Rs 850, with immediate resistance at Rs 880,' Vithlani noted, adding that a break above this level could open the door to Rs 920 and possibly Rs 940. 'Conversely, a dip below Rs 850 may drag the stock toward Rs 825.'

Adani Energy Solutions is scheduled to report its unaudited Q1 FY26 results on Thursday, July 24. The company last posted a 78% year-over-year jump in net profit to Rs 647 crore for the March quarter, while revenue rose 35% to Rs 6,375 crore. Its transmission and distribution segments reported strong growth, with revenue rising to Rs 2,247 crore and Rs 2,907 crore respectively.Thursday's earnings may help resolve the current technical deadlock. For now, traders are watching the Rs 840–885 range closely, waiting to see if the stock can reclaim momentum and test the Rs 940 mark, or if another leg lower is in store.

KMRL begins process to set up ballastless track
KOCHI: Speeding up the second phase of the 'Pink Line' project, Kochi Metro Rail Ltd (KMRL) has initiated the process to set up ballastless track of standard gauge in the elevated section from JLN Stadium station to Infopark Phase 2 station. It has invited open e-tenders online for Rs 127.91 crore for 'Design, Supply, Installation, Testing and Commissioning of Ballastless Track', a work that is aimed to be financed by availing a loan from the Beijing-headquartered Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). The successful bidder should complete the work in 16 months from the date of the Letter of Award. The last date of tender submission is September 1, while the bids will be opened on September 9. The contract awardee can subcontract the work, limited to 50% of the contract price. The tender shall be valid for 180 days (both inclusive) from the last date of submission of tenders. Last week, KMRL floated open tenders for supply of a third rail traction system as well. The Phase 2 project involves the construction of an elevated, electrified metro rail system spanning 11.2km and comprising 11 stations along the JLN Stadium-Infopark section. While the original deadline was the end of 2025, it was revised to December 31, 2026, after the work suffered a delay due to a fund shortage and issues related to utility shifting. 'While the complete section is targeted to be completed by next year's end, we plan to open the first reach up to Padamughal by June 30, 2026. Hence, the successful bidder should complete the work in that session quickly by March 2026. It requires another three months for testing and other purposes,' a senior KMRL official said.

UPI to remove money request feature from October 1: What it means for you
Starting October 1, 2025, the way Indians use the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) will change. The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has announced that it is retiring the money request option for person-to-person (P2P) transfers, a move intended to clamp down on scams that have increasingly targeted unsuspecting money request button was, at least on paper, a neat tool. Rather than awkwardly asking someone to send money, you could simply raise a request, whether for splitting the bill after dinner or reminding a forgetful friend about that Rs 500 they still owed. The recipient had the choice to approve or why this change? While the tool was neat, fraudsters quickly discovered a loophole. Fake requests became a common trick, and many people, thinking they were confirming a genuine payment, accidentally authorised transfers straight out of their accounts. NPCI's new directive leaves little room for ambiguity. From October 2, 'no P2P collect transaction should be initiated, routed or processed,' it said in a note to banks, payment service providers and UPI apps. Systems must be updated to block such requests doesn't mean UPI itself is getting harder to use. In fact, most features remain untouched. You can still:-- Send money instantly using a UPI ID, mobile number, or bank details.-- Scan a QR code to pay friends, family, or shopkeepers.-- Approve requests from verified merchants, such as delivery apps or online change applies solely to peer-to-peer collection requests. Merchant collection requests will continue, with their existing higher transaction caps. (Previously, P2P collection was limited to Rs 2,000 per request.)Safety over simplicityBy cutting off P2P collection, NPCI is removing what it sees as one of UPI's weakest security links. Approving a fraudulent request required little more than a careless tap, making it a favoured trick in online fraud kits.'The objective is to protect consumers and strengthen trust in UPI,' the organisation has said, framing the decision as a pre-emptive strike against rising fraud course, for genuine users, it does mean losing a shortcut. Instead of raising a request, you'll now have to ask for your share directly, either by sharing your UPI ID, generating a QR code, or simply dropping a payment reminder on has been India's digital payments crown jewel, handling billions of transactions every month. Its popularity rests on three things: speed, simplicity, and zero transaction costs. But that very simplicity has left it vulnerable to have tried everything from phishing texts and fake OTP requests to imitating bank officials. The collect request feature was just another arrow in their quiver. Removing it, NPCI argues, is about building resilience before the problem grows this means for usersadvertisementFor most people, little will change. Sending money will remain instant, free, and widely accepted. The only thing missing will be that polite nudge via UPI. It might be mildly inconvenient to craft your own reminder messages or share a QR code instead, but the trade-off is clear: fewer ways for fraudsters to trick people into parting with their future, then, is one of tightened safeguards, less about offering every possible shortcut, and more about ensuring every tap and swipe is secure.- Ends
