Engineers India shares touched a fresh 52-week high of ₹289.65 on Tuesday, extending a rally that has pushed the stock up 17% in three days.
Tuesday marked the third straight session of gains for the stock, and this one turned out to be the sharpest.
The company hasn’t put out any fresh company-specific announcement today, which means the buying is largely being driven by strong ongoing momentum rather than a single new trigger.
To put the scale of this move in perspective, today’s rise is the biggest single-day jump for the stock since mid-February this year, when it had climbed over 12% after an equally strong session the day before.
A similar sharp move had also played out back in April, showing this isn’t the first time the stock has seen this kind of sudden buying interest.
Zooming out a bit, the stock has now gained 24% over the past month alone and is up as much as 41% since the start of this year.
Trading volumes were unusually high too, with intraday activity running well over ten times the stock’s usual 10-day average, showing just how much investor interest this rally has drawn. Behind the scenes, the company has been talking up its growth plans.
Last month, its chairman and managing director told media that Engineers India is targeting 10% revenue growth for the current financial year, while aiming to keep operating margins in the 14 to 16% range.
The company is also looking to expand beyond its traditional oil and gas consultancy work into newer areas like nuclear energy, data centres, metals and maritime projects, hoping this diversification pushes order inflows past ₹7,000 to 8,000 crore for the year.
As of 14:25 pm, Engineers India was trading at ₹279.15 on the NSE, up 6.59% for the day.
