Strong growth prospects and an attractive valuation of 17.4 times and 12.8 times its FY24 and FY25 EPS make Jupiter Wagons an emerging play in small cap capital goods space, Sharekhan said.

The company is transforming itself into a consistent growth play by revamping strategies such as enhancing wagon manufacturing capacities, strengthening its position in wagon accessories by launching new products and expanding into the fast-growing category of light electric commercial vehicles, the brokerage firm added.

Sharekhan sees return profile improving substantially with an expectation that Return on Equity and Return on Capital Employed will be at 24.6 percent and 29.1 percent by FY25 in comparison with 15.0 percent and 20.8 percent in FY23.
