The brokerage house Nuvama Institutional Equities has given a ‘Buy’ rating on three stocks: United Breweries, Kalpataru Projetcts, and Titagarh Rail Systems. It raised the target price of United breweries while cutting it on the other two. Read below to know what compelled the brokerage firm to do so.
Nuvama on United Breweries: Raises target price by 6%
Nuvama has raised the target price on United Breweries by 6% to Rs 2,505 from Rs 2,365 while maintaining the ‘Buy’ rating on the stock. This was due to the company’s higher growth compared to Industry volumes. Its premium continued to outperform and its volumes rose 33% YoY, aided by strong growth of Kingfisher Ultra, Ultra Max, and Heineken Silver. “We like UBBL’s efforts on continuously investing in growth and affordability along with the announcement of capex of Rs 750 crore in UP to produce mainstream and premium products, including Heineken, with provision for both cans and bottles,” added Nuvama. The company’s higher-than-expected growth in premium hurt the bottle return rates due to which it slashed FY26 and FY27 earnings per share by 6%, each. United Breweries’ share price fell 2% to an intra-day low of Rs 1,999.05.

The brokerage house maintained its ‘Buy’ rating on Kalpataru Projects. However, it slashed the target price by 20% to Rs 1,196 from Rs 1,500. It expects the company to deliver an earnings per share compounded annual growth rate of 30% from FY25 to FY27, led by T&D capital expenditure supercycle and non-core asset sales. Plus, the company is likely the beneficiary of strong macro triggers, said Nuvama. These triggers are MoP’s continued investment in transmission connectivity capital expenditure for renewable energy projects, strong positive momentum in real estate launches, and spending on water supply (Jal Jeevan Mission). The share price of Kalpataru Projects rose 5.5% to an intra-day high of Rs 928.40. However, it has fallen almost 9% in the past five days.
