Analyst Insights and Price Targets
Bonanza Securities' View
Virat Jagad, Sr. Technical Research Analyst at Bonanza, notes that BHEL maintains a strong medium-term uptrend following a sharp rally from the Rs 250 zone. However, the stock is currently consolidating around the Rs 390–400 resistance band. Jagad suggests that the recent sideways movement near these highs indicates profit booking rather than a trend reversal. A decisive breakout above Rs 400 could trigger fresh upside, potentially pushing the stock towards Rs 430–450 in the coming weeks. On the downside, Rs 370 is expected to act as immediate support, with stronger support near Rs 345. The broader trend remains bullish, and any dips towards these support zones are likely to attract buying interest as long as the stock sustains above key moving averages.
Choice Broking's Perspective
Hitesh Tailor, Technical Research at Choice Broking, highlights a strong breakout on the daily chart for BHEL, as it surpassed its long-term downward sloping trendline resistance. This indicates a significant improvement in the overall price structure. Tailor observes that the recent upmove emerged after a consolidation breakout near the Rs 255–260 zone, which now serves as an important support area. Despite some profit booking from higher levels near Rs 418, the broader trend remains positive. As long as the stock holds above the Rs 370–365 support zone, the bullish structure is likely to stay intact, with a potential upside towards Rs 420–430 in the near term.
