Gayatri Projects Limited Stock Performance
The stock made debut in year 2006 at listing price of 62 INR. Soon after listing Markets faced Global Crisis which forced the stock prices below 10 INR. But it recovered from the crisis and reached near 100 mark. Period after that was not good for the Company. It witnessed slow down for next 4 years and started trading below 10 levels again in year 2014.
Recent bull run helped the Company and propelled the stock prices to cross and touch 200 mark giving good returns. Investors investing in year 2014 made good money in the counter.
Gayatri Projects Limited My Opinion
Gayatri Projects Limited is a Construction sector Company. The Company is not a residential construction Company. It has forayed into multiple verticals as mentioned in the description part above. It has also received Dredging projects off late along with the ones mentioned above.
Modernization – Godavari Delta Drainge System – West Godavari District is one such ongoing project as of now. The Dredging projects have good scope in near future due to lot many river focused projects to be announced or acted upon by Government in due course.
The Company can be termed as Complete Infrastructure development Company dealing with many growth areas like Irrigation. Railways and Road Projects along with Dredging projects mentioned above.
As of now I have not invested in Construction Company but this one looks good. It is good to invest in these companies when they are out of favor for good returns. As these Companies are cyclic in nature and investing at wrong price point could lead to severe loss.
In case you are interested then you can track the company by adding it to your stock watch list. That way you can keep close eye on the Company.
