Analyst View
Analyst Finkhoz RoboAdvisory noted that on the weekly chart, the stock has broken out above the long-term ₹713 resistance zone on heavy volume. The weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is above 72.
They now see the old resistance zone of ₹713–720 acting as support, with an upside target of ₹1,000. While Finkhoz cautioned that a bit of profit booking could be on the cards, many believe this stock could be due for a valuation re-rating if the company sustains this growth and profitability.
