JSW Infrastructure Ltd.’s share price rose over 3% on Wednesday after brokerage firm Investec initiated coverage on the company with a ‘buy’ rating. It has a price target of Rs 370 per share, implying a potential upside of 15% from Tuesday’s closing levels.
Investec’s positive outlook on JSW Infra is supported by the company’s strong growth prospects. The brokerage expects the company to deliver a compound annual growth rate of over 20% in revenue and Ebitda from financial years 2024 to 2030. As the second-largest port player in India, JSW Infra handles approximately 7% of the country’s port volumes, positioning the company as a key player in the growing logistics and infrastructure sector.
One of the key drivers of growth identified by Investec is the ramp-up in third-party cargo volumes and the newly acquired terminals, which are expected to contribute significantly to JSW Infra’s expansion. Additionally, the company stands to benefit from planned capacity additions by its parent company, JSW Steel, which are set to boost volumes and further strengthen its market position over the next few years.
Investec also highlighted JSW Infra’s strategic positioning to benefit from the Indian government’s ongoing port privatisation plan, which aims to enhance operational efficiency and drive greater private-sector involvement in the country’s maritime infrastructure.
