Penny stock under ₹15: Rama Steel Tubes share price soars 18% on renewable energy foray
In an exchange filing today, the company announced an updated strategic investment in the renewable energy space through its participation as a joint venture (JV) partner in a 225 MW solar power project under the Government of India's ambitious PM-KUSUM
The project, structured under Onix IPP, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), is spread across multiple locations in Maharashtra. It has successfully signed Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) at a fixed tariff of ₹ 3.10 per unit for a 25-year term.
This investment marks RSTL's significant diversification into the clean energy space. The company said that the participation ensures stable long-term returns from the green and renewable energy sector. With its 10% stake in the SPV, the company will proportionally benefit from recurring income, adding a new dimension of sustainability-linked revenue to its business portfolio.
As part of this venture, Rama Steel holds a 10% equity stake in Onix IPP. The project is expected to generate gross annual revenue of ₹ 108.11 crore, translating to a total revenue of ₹ 2,702.81 crore over the 25-year PPA period.
Based on its stake, RSTL is projected to earn ₹ 10.81 crore annually, resulting in a total share of ₹ 270.28 crore over the entire duration of the agreement.
Mr Richi Bansal, whole time director & chief executive officer, said, "we are proud to be part of this landmark renewable energy initiative. Our strategic investment in the 225 MW PM-KUSUM project not only strengthens our ESG profile but also diversifies our revenue base. This is a future-forward step aligned with India's net-zero vision and rural empowerment.'
Earlier, the company entered the defence sector by incorporating Rama Defence Private Limited, which will engage in trading, importing, exporting, manufacturing, assembling, and supplying defence equipment, arms, ammunition, explosives, and related military and security hardware.
The company, which operates in the steel tubes and pipes manufacturing sector, has seen its shares skyrocket 177% in the last three years and 3,217% over the past five years. The company's shares have been trading ex-split in the ratio of 2:1 since March 2024.

India Inc. hails PM Modi's call to empower youth, bolster MSMEs
New Delhi: The country's apex business chamber, the Confederation of Indian industry (CII), on Friday hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Independence Day call for empowering India's youth, strengthening MSMEs and accelerating the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' mission. 'CII is committed to supporting this journey by fostering entrepreneurship, facilitating market linkages for MSMEs, and enabling the skills and infrastructure needed for a truly self-sustaining economy,' the business chamber said in a statement. The milestone of Rs 1 lakh crore youth empowerment initiative of the PM-Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana, with its Rs 15,000 support for first-time job seekers, has the potential to create large-scale employment opportunities, enhance skills, and open pathways for sustained livelihoods, CII Director General Chandrajit Banerjee said. MSMEs, as the backbone of India's economy, stand to gain significantly from these measures. Increased access to talent, targeted incentives, and a stronger domestic manufacturing ecosystem will enable them to scale, innovate, and integrate more deeply into global value chains. The emphasis on indigenous capabilities, whether in high-tech sectors like semiconductors, defence systems such as the Sudarshan Chakra Mission, or renewable and energy self-reliance, reinforces the Atmanirbhar Bharat vision. "Furthermore, the success of Operation Sindoor reflects India's growing defence capabilities and underscores the imperative of safeguarding national and economic security through enhanced indigenous systems, accelerated development of advanced military technologies, and self-reliance in critical defence infrastructure and supply chains," the statement added.. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a 103-minute Independence Day address from the ramparts of the Red Fort, marked a watershed moment for its sweeping articulation of a self-reliant, strategically autonomous, and technologically empowered nation. Framed as a roadmap to a Viksit Bharat by 2047, the speech blended policy announcements with ideological clarity, underscoring India's transformation from dependence to global confidence. Among the most ambitious announcements was the rollout of India's first Made in India semiconductor chip by year-end, alongside the opening of the nuclear sector to private players. PM Modi emphasised that self-reliance must extend to jet engines, social media platforms, fertilisers, and pharmaceuticals. The National Critical Minerals Mission and the Deepwater Exploration Mission were presented as foundational steps toward securing energy and industrial autonomy, with 1,200 mineral sites under exploration and offshore energy resources being tapped to reduce foreign fuel dependence.
