CLSA | Rating: Buy | Target: Cut to Rs 72 from Rs 85
According to CLSA, the thermal does well as Mundra turns but renewables were disappointing. The company guided for 42 percent YoY debt reduction during FY21, reported CNBC-TV18.
The EPS estimates cut due to lower Indo-coal profitability said CLSA.
Jefferies | Rating: Hold | Target: Cut to Rs 35 from Rs 36
The company's results were above expectations primarily due to lower interest costs. The Mundra tariff hike timelines are still unclear and the company plans to cut the debt to Rs 25,000 crore from Rs 48,000 crore, reported CNBC-TV18.
However, the difficult markets could play a spoiler in monetisation plans, added Jefferies.
