The company’s shares had surged another 5% in the intraday session, reaching a new all-time high of Rs 1,264.90 on BSE. However, amid some profit booking, the stock dropped 5% at Rs 1,145.70 around 1:30 pm.
The surge continues as the company, earlier in the last week, announced receiving a Rs 215 crore order from the Uttar Pradesh Department of Agriculture for the supply of 8,085 solar water pumping systems across various districts in the state and is scheduled for completion by March 2025.
Investor sentiment may have also been boosted by expectations that Premier Energies will benefit from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s (MNRE) draft norms for an Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for solar cells. These guidelines, released over the weekend, are set to take effect in April 2026, offering potential long-term benefits to the company.
