Up 50% in May! This T&D stock jumps another 5% to hit new record high. Is it in your portfolio?
GE Vernova T&D India share price in focus: Extending its winning streak for the sixth straight session, GE Vernova T&D India's share price surged another 5% in intraday trade on Thursday, May 29, touching a new record high of ₹ 2,334 apiece. This took the six-day cumulative gain to 29%.
The surge in demand for the stock came after the company's March quarter results beat Street estimates, helping it maintain a steady upward trend despite sharp volatility in frontline indices.
Domestic brokerage firms have also raised their target prices for the stock, lending further support to GE Vernova T&D India's ongoing rally. Since the release of its Q4 numbers on May 23 (post-market hours), the stock has jumped 24% in just four trading sessions and has gained 50% in May so far.
For the quarter ended March, the company reported a nearly three-fold jump in net profit to ₹ 186.49 crore, driven by a sharp rise in revenue, which surged to ₹ 1,173.65 crore from ₹ 919.31 crore a year earlier.
For FY25, net profit and revenue grew by 235% and 35.5%, reaching ₹ 608 crore and ₹ 4292 crore, respectively. Operating profit margin for Q4FY25 surged to 21.9%, compared to 12.1% in the same quarter last year, with FY25 closing at a robust 19.1% versus 10.1% in FY24.
In terms of order inflows, the company secured ₹ 30 billion worth of new orders in Q4 — a 125% year-on-year increase — pushing its total order backlog to ₹ 127 billion. This is nearly three times FY25 sales and ensures revenue visibility for the next three to four years.
Following GE Vernova T&D India's strong March quarter results, brokerages have revised their target prices upward. Japanese brokerage firm Nomura raised its target price to ₹ 2,600, up from the earlier ₹ 2,500, while maintaining its 'Buy' recommendation.
Domestic brokerage Nuvama Institutional Equities also raised its target price to ₹ 2,250 per share, retaining a 'Buy' rating. However, the stock has already surpassed this target during its recent rally.
Nuvama highlighted that the company's consistent base order inflow growth of 20–25% per annum, combined with HVDC optionality and sustained operating profit margins of 19.1% in FY25, remains a key growth driver.
The brokerage also pointed to a significant rise in exports, which have increased to approximately 30%, up from 20% two to three years ago. This growth is attributed to larger orders from GE's global group entities and international clients across Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, LATAM, and Australia.
This export momentum is in addition to India's ongoing transmission and distribution (T&D) investment cycle, with the Central Electricity Authority (CEA) planning to spend ₹ 9.15 trillion over FY22–32, including 8–9 HVDC projects.
Of these, equipment orders for at least two HVDC projects are expected within the next 12 months — a development that could position GE Vernova as a major beneficiary in the high-voltage and extra-high-voltage (HV/EHV) segment (220 kV and above), the brokerage added.

Japan's Nikkei falls on Iran risks but weaker yen limits losses
Japan's Nikkei experienced a decline due to escalating U.S.-Iran tensions. Synopsis Japan's Nikkei experienced a decline due to escalating U.S.-Iran tensions, which drove up oil prices and heightened risk aversion. The surge in crude prices, impacting Japan's economy and corporate earnings, was partially offset by a weaker yen boosting exporter stocks. Chip stocks underperformed, while oil explorers saw gains amid market uncertainty. Japan's Nikkei share average fell on Monday as U.S. attacks on Iranian nuclear sites fueled risk aversion, while the accompanying jump in oil prices weighed on the outlook for Japan's economy and corporate earnings. ADVERTISEMENT The Nikkei declined 0.13% to 38,354.09 as of the close, with 154 of its components declining, versus 69 that rose and two that ended flat. However, that was well off the lows from early in the session, when the benchmark index slid around 1%. The broader Topix slipped 0.36%. "Owing to the strong sense of uncertainty in the current situation, many investors are taking a wait-and-see stance," said Yutaka Miura, senior technical analyst at Mizuho Securities. Drivers of Nikkei direction, including oil and the exchange rate, "are likely to fluctuate widely in response to any developments in the Middle East". Japan, which imports almost all of its oil, is highly sensitive to crude prices that surged to six-month peaks on Monday as traders waited nervously to see Iran's response to the U.S.'s entry into the conflict. Japanese manufacturers are also vulnerable to energy price spikes. ADVERTISEMENT At the same time, analysts pointed to the yen's decline to a nearly six-week low versus a broadly stronger U.S. dollar as providing support to shares in Japan's heavyweight exporters, whose overseas revenues gain in value when the yen weakens. "The rise in the dollar-yen interest rate has been very clearly helpful for the Nikkei's performance," said Yunosuke Ikeda, chief macro strategist at Nomura Securities. ADVERTISEMENT The safe-haven yen is weakening because "investors seem more focused this time on the impact of higher oil prices on Japan's trade balance," Ikeda said. Chip stocks underperformed, with Advantest and Tokyo Electron the biggest drags in index-point terms, falling 1.23% and 1.17%, respectively. ADVERTISEMENT Oil explorers were among the best-performing stocks, with the Topix mining sub-index climbing 1.49% to sit at the top of the 33 industry sub-indexes.

River Indie Electric Scooter Crosses 7,000 Units Sales Since Launch
Bengaluru-based River Mobility is seeing an uptake in the sales figures of its Indie electric scooter. The total sales of River Indie in 2024 were 2,515 units and the company has already seen a 77 per cent increase in the total sales in 2025 till date. River has sold over 7,000 units of the Indie electric scooter since the beginning of sales in 2023. Numbers suggest that the sales started picking up after River updated the scooter with a final chain drive, priced at Rs. 1.43 lakh (ex-showroom). The company recently crossed Rs. 100 crore in revenue and touched the 1,000 units mark in monthly sales. The new model was priced higher than the older model but still the company is seeing an increase in the sales of the electric scooter, whose primary markets are Southern and Western India. The River Indie electric scooter comes with a 4 kWh battery pack with a claimed range of 161 km. It can be charged from 0 to 80 per cent in 5 hours. The electric motor makes a total of 6.7 kW with 26 Nm of max torque. The electric scooter has a claimed acceleration from 0 to 40 kmph in 3.7 seconds and has a top speed of 90 kmph. River Mobility will soon collaborate with Yamaha and the Japanese two-wheeler giant will soon enter the affordable electric scooter segment with a brand-new model, which will be based on the current River Indie. The upcoming Yamaha EV is code-named RY01 and reports suggest that it will use the same battery management system and powertrain as the River Indie. Now, it should be noted that Yamaha Motor Co, Japan invested around 40 million dollars in River in February 2024. The investment was made for River's Series B round of funding through third-party allotment.
