Leading brokerage firm Motilal Oswal has assigned a buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 2,300, signaling an upside potential of 37 percent from its previous day closing price of Rs 1678.80.
The brokerage firm cited that Gravita India anticipates delivery of robust earnings growth driven by its strategic capacity expansion that includes a transition toward higher margin value-added lead products, along with new segments in rubber and lithium-ion recycling.
Enhanced scrap availability domestically – partly from the strict EPR norms – allowed Gravita to increase its local sourcing by 60% in FY25, with a reduction in working capital days from 85 in FY25 to 76 in FY27, and improvement in cash flows.
Gravita is targeting to grow its non-lead segments (rubber, lithium-ion) to 30% of revenue by FY29, deploying a 70% CAGR for rubber alone over the next 3-4 years. Value-added lead products should also enable the company to sustainably support margins and profitability moving forward.
