“Short-term traders can keep an eye on market sentiment and listing momentum. Future price movement, however, is probably going to rely more on company performance than listing optimism. Long-term investors may keep following the company if they want to be exposed to India's growing infrastructure and electricity transmission spending,” said Ravi Singh, Chief Research Officer from Master Capital Services Ltd.

Laser Power & Infra is a registered supplier for Indian Railways and an accredited vendor for Research Design & Standard Organization (RDSO). It has three manufacturing units in West Bengal with total installed capacity of 85,448 MT.
