Shares of JTL Industries are expected to surge by over 35 percent, according to market experts, who see significant potential for the small-cap stock in the long term.
With the steel sector rallying on the back of China's stimulus efforts, JTL Industries is showing signs of a breakout.
Investors are now weighing whether to buy into the stock or avoid it.
What experts say about the stock's prospects
Experts are optimistic about JTL Industries Ltd., highlighting its potential for significant growth in the coming years.
The company is on track to expand its production capacity from 0.59 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) to 1.0 MTPA by FY25.
And it has plans to triple this capacity to 2.0 MTPA by FY28, driven by robust sectoral dynamics and a strategic focus on value-added products.
JTL Industries share price target
Ganesh Dongre, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Anand Rathi, said, “JTL Industries shares are overbought. The small-cap stock has made a strong base at ₹80. As steel stocks are on an uptrend due to China’s stimulus buzz, the stock shows signs of a breakout from the consolidation phase.”
Brokerage firm SMIFS Limited has set a target price of ₹294 per share with a ‘BUY’ recommendation, indicating a potential 37.6% return from the current price of ₹214.
The valuation is based on a P/E ratio of 28x the estimated earnings per share (EPS) for September 2026.
Right now, the stock is trading at a P/E ratio of 33.3x for FY25 estimates, 25.2x for FY26 estimates, and 17.0x for FY27 estimates.
Ganesh Dongre of Anand Rathi advised investors to hold JTL Industries shares with short-to-medium-term targets of ₹240 and ₹260, maintaining a strict stop loss at ₹180.
For new investors, he suggested buying at the current market price (CMP), with the same target of ₹40 to ₹260.
