Mazagon Dock shares become more valuable than these 8 Nifty 50 stocks after sharp rally

Economic Times04-06-2025
Shares of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders extended their recent rally on Wednesday, briefly rising as much as 3.2% to Rs 3,548 on the BSE before paring gains, with the stock now more valuable than eight constituents of the benchmark Nifty 50 index. The defence PSU, which has climbed in nine of the last 11 sessions, touched a market capitalisation of Rs 1.43 lakh crore at its intraday high.
ADVERTISEMENT At that valuation, Mazagon Dock eclipsed blue-chip companies such as IndusInd Bank, Hero MotoCorp, Hindalco, Shriram Finance, Cipla, Tata Consumer Products, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, and Apollo Hospitals in terms of market capitalization.
Shares of the shipbuilder had touched a record high of Rs 3,775 on May 29, the day it announced its March quarter earnings. However, the stock fell 10% over the next two sessions after the results came in below expectations.
In its post-earnings call, the management explained that margins during the quarter were affected due to provisioning for two ongoing projects worth a combined Rs 3,500 crore.
Looking ahead, the company guided for revenue growth of 8–10% and a Profit Before Tax margin of 15% for FY26. The management also projected that its order book could grow to Rs 1.25 lakh crore from the current Rs 32,260 crore, contingent on the finalisation of two major submarine contracts, the P75 and P75I.
ADVERTISEMENT 'The P75 submarines order, valued at Rs 30,000 crore to Rs 40,000 crore, is likely to be signed as early as next month,' the company had said.Mazagon Dock shares have soared 111% in the past year, 46% over six months, 60% in three months, and 14.7% in the last month.
ADVERTISEMENT Technically, the stock is trading above six of its eight key simple moving averages, including the 20-day, 30-day, 50-day, 100-day, 150-day, and 200-day SMAs, indicating bullish momentum across timeframes.The Relative Strength Index stands at 57.8, suggesting the stock is neither overbought nor oversold. The MACD is at 187.4 and remains near the center line but below the signal line.

Indian shares inch lower as Kotak earnings drag financials, trade deal delay weighs

By Bharath Rajeswaran and Vivek Kumar M (Reuters) -Indian shares inched lower on Monday as weak results from Kotak Mahindra Bank weighed on sentiment, while uncertainty over trade talks with the U.S. added to overall caution. The Nifty 50 fell 0.16% to 24,798.9 points and the BSE Sensex lost 0.2% to 81,325.4 as of 10:03 a.m. IST. The broader small-caps and mid-caps lost 0.3% and 0.2%, respectively. Negotiations between India and the United States remained deadlocked over tariff cuts on agriculture and dairy products, dimming hopes of an interim deal ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump's August 1 deadline. This is in contrast to a framework trade agreement struck between the U.S. and European Union over the weekend, easing fears of a bigger trade war between the two allies, which account for almost a third of global trade. High-weightage financials and private banks lost 0.2% and 1%, respectively, dragged by a 7% fall in Kotak Mahindra Bank after it posted a drop in quarterly profit. The IT index lost 0.5%, with Tata Consultancy Services shedding 1.6% after it announced plans to reduce its workforce by 2% in fiscal year 2026. The Nifty 50 and 30-stock Sensex have logged four consecutive weekly losses due to weak earnings, foreign outflows and uncertainty over the U.S.-India trade deal. "A dull earnings season and the lingering delay in the India-U.S. trade deal have clearly cast a shadow on market sentiment. With valuations still stretched across the board, investors are understandably treading with heightened caution," said G Chokkalingam, founder and head of research at Equinomics Research. Among individual stocks, Mphasis gained 2.4% on posting quarterly results in-line with estimates and on strong deal bookings, which has boosted the IT company's revenue growth outlook. SBI Cards and Payment Services lost 3.7% after missing profit estimates in the June quarter. (Reporting by Vivek Kumar M and Bharath Rajeswaran; Editing by Eileen Soreng and Mrigank Dhaniwala)

Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders share price dips ahead of Q1 results today. Opportunity to buy?

Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders share price slipped over 1% on Monday's session ahead of its Q1 results 2025 today. In its filing with the exchange, the company mentioned that its board of directors is set to convene on July 28, 2025 to review and approve the unaudited financial results for the quarter ending on 30 June 2025. Seema Srivastava, Senior Research Analyst at SMC Global Securities, said that Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders is likely to report positive quarterly numbers with a robust growth outlook, buoyed by strategic momentum in India's defence shipbuilding. Srivastava noted that the company recently initiated keel laying for its first Next Generation Offshore Patrol Vessel (NGOPV) for the Indian Coast Guard—highlighting its expanding technical capabilities with AI and drone integration, which is likely to support its earnings and margins. Also, earlier management projected mid single digit to low double digit revenue growth for FY26, alongside healthy profit before tax margins around 15% a signal of operational discipline and improved execution compared to FY25. After a challenging Q4 FY25 characterised by one off provisioning effects, Q1 is seen as a potential turning point for margin recovery and stabilisation, explained Seema. 'Investors will track order pipeline developments closely, particularly around submarine projects (P75 additional and P75I) and coastal patrol builds that support India's strategic maritime needs and forward margins,' added Srivastava. Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders experienced a 51% decline in consolidated net profit for Q4FY25, reporting ₹ 325 crore compared to ₹ 663 crore from the same period last year. In the same quarter, the company's revenue from operations reached ₹ 3,174 crore, reflecting a 2.3% increase from ₹ 3,103 crore reported in the previous year's corresponding quarter. The profit after tax (PAT) dropped 60% sequentially from ₹ 807 crore in Q3FY25, while revenue from operations saw a slight rise of 1% when compared to the ₹ 3,144 crore reported for the October-December quarter of FY25. Q4 expenses surged by 20% to ₹ 3,114.11 crore, up from ₹ 2,604 crore in the same quarter of the previous financial year. This also represented a 31% increase from the ₹ 2,367 crore registered in Q3FY25. The rise in expenses was attributed to several factors, including the cost of materials consumed, procurement of base and depot spares, finance costs, and employee benefit expenses. Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders share price today opened at ₹ 2,886.70 apiece on the BSE, the stock touched an intraday high of ₹ 2,907.80 apiece, and an intraday low of ₹ 2,844.10. According to Rajesh Bhosale, Equity Technical and Derivative Analyst at Angel One, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders share price has witnessed a sharp correction over the past two months, sliding from 3700 to 2900. The momentum remains weak unless clear bullish reversal signs emerge. The next crucial support lies near 2750, which aligns with the golden Fibonacci retracement level and the May swing low. Given the oversold conditions, some respite could be expected around these levels. On the upside, 3050 remains a stiff resistance, coinciding with the 89 EMA and 20 DEMA.
