Top Buzzing Stocks Today

RVNL will be among the top buzzing stocks today.

shares of railway PSU firm Rail Vikas Nigam (RVNL) fell 3% on Tuesday.

The decline was seen after its joint venture deal with Russia's CJSC Transmashholding (TMH) to manufacture and maintain 120 Vande Bharat trains broke down.

Timken India will also be in focus today.

shares of Timken India cracked 11% today after the company's parent Timken Singapore Pte sold a stake in its Indian subsidiary in a bulk deal.

As per media sources, Timken Singapore had decided to sell as many as 6.3 m shares, or 8.4% of the total equity of the company, through a block deal at a floor price of Rs 3,000 per share.

BEL's Robust order book

Bharat Electronics (BEL) has received orders worth Rs 59 billion (bn) so far in the financial year 2023-24.

The bulk of the orders, in terms of monetary value, have been received for the Akash Weapon System (AWS), which is a short-range surface-to-air missile air defence system.

The company has received an order for two regiments of improved Akash Weapon System (AWS) with upgrades from BDL for a value of Rs 39.1 bn.

The improvements incorporated in AWS include high-altitude operation and simultaneous engagement of multiple threats over 360 degrees.

In March, which was the final month of FY23, BEL received export orders worth US$ 52 million (m). This included orders from France, Israel, and the United States.

Speaking of the defence sector, note that the government's Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan has emphasized the need for self-reliance in security space.

Given the increasing focus on self-reliance, the Ministry of Defense (MoD) has set a target of doubling the defense production to US$ 25 bn by 2025.

We believe the defence sector could produce the next set of multibagger stocks over the long run.

Tata Motors stock rally

Shares of Tata Motors rose 3% to hit a fresh multi-year high of Rs 582.6 on the BSE in Tuesday's rangebound trade on an improved business outlook.

The stock of the Tata Group passenger cars & utility vehicles company was trading close to its record high level of Rs 606, touched on 3 February 2015.

India's largest electric vehicle (EV) maker has expanded its manufacturing capacity nearly three times in the last three years.

The recent purchase of Ford's Sanand plant has increased the automobile major's capacity to 1 million units per year.

Further, Tata Motors has become the second largest in India in terms of sales outlets, with 1,410 showrooms across the country. Its service centres increased to 855 from 653 three years ago.

Additionally, Tata Motors' British arm Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), has successfully reduced its break-even production levels by 50% in the fiscal year 2023.

As part of its transition to a new all-electric platform, Jaguar plans to cease vehicle assembly at the Castle Bromwich plant. This strategic move is expected to enhance the company's utilisation levels.

Tata Motors remains in the fast lane when it comes to electric vehicles (EVs). The Tata group is leading India's EV revolution, and Tata Motors has remained at the forefront.

Also, the electric vehicle (EV) megatrend is a once-in-a-century revolution happening right in front of us.

The revolution has taken the auto sector by storm. All segments of the sector are ripe for disruption, and India's top EV stocks are set to benefit from this shift.
