Indus Towers Shares Down 10% as Brokers Stay Bullish
Indus Towers is a company that builds cell phone towers in India.
Its stock price fell more than 10% in 2026, but experts still think it can do well.
They look at how much money the company makes and how many new towers it will build.
Some analysts lowered their price targets because they are not sure if a big customer, Reliance Jio, will keep using the towers.
Others kept their targets high because the company has good cash flow and plans to expand into Africa.
The company earned 4.6% more revenue in its first quarter of fiscal year 2027, and its earnings margin is 53.2%.
The company also has a steady rent from each customer.
Overall, analysts say the risk and reward are balanced after the recent price drop.
Indus Towers shares fell over 10% in 2026, yet brokerages remain bullish on the company.
Emkay Global cut its target price by 12% to Rs 475 due to uncertainty over Reliance Jio’s tenancy renewal, but kept a Buy rating.
Nomura retained a Buy rating with a Rs 505 target, citing stable earnings and an upcoming Africa rollout funded largely by debt.
Motilal Oswal highlighted Vodafone Idea’s potential fundraise and Jio’s renewal as key risks, but said risk‑reward remains balanced after the price correction.
The company reported 4.6% YoY revenue growth in Q1FY27, with EBITDA margin at 53.2% and flat rental per tenant at Rs 41,082.

“"On one hand, Vodafone Idea’s capex can accelerate Indus Towers’ tenancy addition, while on the other, uncertainty of Reliance Jio’s contract renewal can impact up to 15% of the revenue, in our view."”
