Shares of Bondada Engineering surged 10 per cent to hit an upper circuit after it secured a solar power project from the government of Andhra Pradesh.
Bondada Engineering's stock rose as much as 10 per cent during the day to hit an upper circuit of ₹425 per share. This compares to a 0.96 per cent advance in BSE Sensex as of 12:10 PM. This is the second time this month that the stock has hit the upper circuit breaker, the previous instance being on May 12 this year.
Shares of the company snapped their three-day losing streak on Friday and have recovered over 25 per cent from their recent lows of ₹333, which it hit earlier this month. The counter has fallen 30 per cent this year, compared to a 4.8 per cent advance in the benchmark Sensex. Bondada Engineering has a total market capitalisation of ₹4,668.17 crore.
Why did Bondada Engineering's shares rally?
The company was awarded an order worth ₹9,000 crore from the Energy Department of Andhra Pradesh for the allocation of 2,000 MW (AC) / 2,600 MWp (DC) solar power capacity across various locations in Ananthapuramu and Sri Sathya Sai districts.

The allocation follows detailed project proposals submitted by the company, covering solar developments in Roddam and Kothacheruvu mandals of Sri Sathya Sai district, as well as Gooty, Peddavadugur, Vidapanakallu, Peddapappur, and Narpala mandals in Ananthapuramu district. The said project is likely to create 3,900 employment opportunities in Andhra Pradesh.
This ₹9,000 crore order will bring Bondada Engineering's total order book to over ₹14,000 crore, according to the statement. Additionally, the company expects to generate ₹1,160 crore in revenue from its Independent Power Producer (IPP) operations beginning the financial year 2029 (FY29).
"This strategic allocation marks a significant milestone for Bondada Engineering and reaffirms our commitment to contributing to India's renewable energy ambitions through large-scale, sustainable infrastructure development," it said in the statement.

Rupee recovers from two-month low level; settles 18 paise higher at 86.55 against US dollar

At the interbank foreign exchange, the domestic currency opened at 86.65 and traded in a narrow range of 86.55-86.67, before ending the session at its intra-day peak of 86.55 against the US dollar, registering a gain of 18 paise from previous closing level. A robust sentiment in domestic equity markets further supported the local unit, according to forex traders. Mumbai, Jun 20 (PTI) The rupee snapped its three-day losing streak and settled with a gain of 18 paise at 86.55 against the US dollar on Friday, buoyed by a massive inflow of foreign capital, retreating crude oil prices and a weakening greenback. The rupee had lost 30 paise to close at an over two-month low of 86.73 against the dollar on Thursday, logging a combined loss of 69 paise in the past three sessions. According to Maneesh Sharma, AVP – Commodities & Currencies, Anand Rathi Shares and Stock Brokers, the rupee gained on Friday but declined a little over 1 per cent this month so far, 'with a large portion of its decline occurring after Israel attacked targets in Iran last Friday'. Dilip Parmar, Research Analyst, HDFC Securities, attributed the rupee's resurgence to 'a revitalisation in the domestic stock markets and a subdued greenback, which receded following reports of President Donald Trump postponing a decision regarding an Iran strike'. Additionally, Parmar said, lower imported commodity prices lent additional buoyancy to the local rupee. 'In the near-term, the spot USD/INR pair faces resistance at 87.10 and finds support at 86.45. The overall bias for the USD/INR pair remains favourable,' he added. Meanwhile, the dollar index, which gauges the greenback's strength against a basket of six currencies, was trading 0.30 per cent lower at 98.60. In the domestic equity market, the 30-share BSE Sensex surged 1,046.30 points to settle at 82,408.17, while Nifty soared 319.15 points to 25,112.40. Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, declined 2.36 per cent to USD 76.99 per barrel in futures trade. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) purchased equities worth Rs 7,940.70 crore on a net basis on Friday, according to exchange data. The latest weekly data released by the Reserve Bank of India on Friday showed India's forex reserves rose USD 2.294 billion to USD 698.95 billion during the week ended June 13. However, government data showed the country's eight core sectors' growth slowed down to 0.7 per cent, lowest in nine months, in May 2025 against 6.9 per cent in the same month last year. In April, the growth in output of these key infrastructure sectors were recorded at 1 per cent. PTI TRB HVA This report is auto-generated from PTI news service.
