Coal India Shares Rise After Morgan Stanley Upgrade
Coal India share price climbs 3% after Morgan Stanley upgrades, raises target price · livemint.com

Coal India’s share price went up on Tuesday.

This happened after Morgan Stanley became more positive about the company’s stock.

Morgan Stanley raised its expected price from its earlier view to ₹480.

It expects more demand for coal from power plants.

It also expects coal prices and auction premiums to rise.

Another brokerage, Equirus Securities, also gave the stock a more favorable rating.

A market analyst said investors could consider buying between ₹410 and ₹420, but suggested selling if it closes below ₹385.

These views suggest optimism, but they are not a guarantee that the share price will rise.

Quotes

Equirus Securities

Domestic brokerage firm that upgraded Coal India to “add” and provided a December 2027 price target.

“With power plant inventory rebuilding typically taking 6–9 months, we expect coal availability to remain tight and e-auction premiums elevated through end-FY27E. We factor in a nearly 80% e-auction premium for FY27E, with upside risk during the seasonally stronger October–March period.”
