Kya hua
InCred Equities ne Finolex Cables par Rs 1,435 target ke saath Add rating maintain rakhi, stock ~16% weekly surge ke baad 11 Sep ko Rs 1,423.25 par band hua.
InCred Equities ne Finolex Cables par 'Add' rating maintain rakhi hai aur Rs 1,435 ka target price diya hai, theme hai 'Unlocking growth'. Ye note tab aaya jab stock ne 14 September 2026 tak ke hafte mein lagbhag 16% ki tez daud lagayi aur 11 September ko BSE par Rs 1,423.25 par close hua, market cap Rs 21,767.09 crore, intraday high Rs 1,498.35 aur low Rs 1,340 raha.
Buy ka logic backward integration aur data centre se aa rahi OFC demand par based hai. Finolex desh ka eklauta wire aur cable player hai jiske paas khud ka continuous copper-rod casting hai, aur Vapour Axial Deposition (VAD) plant ke baad ye India ka dusra optical-fibre preform producer bhi hai jisse import par dependence kam hui hai. Brokerage ne bola stock abhi bhi zyadatar C&W aur OFC peers ke muqable steep discount par trade kar raha hai, aur jaise hi nayi capacity se earnings aayegi, ye valuation gap narrow hoga.
Ground par company apni optical fibre cable capacity 4 million se double karke 8 million fibre kilometres kar rahi hai — 100 MT ka preform plant July end tak operational ho gaya aur agla 100 MT jod kar total 200 MT karne ka plan hai. CEO Mahesh Vishwanathan ne Financial Express ko bola ki globally fibre ki badi shortage hai, kahin bhi fibre available nahi hai, aur agle kuch saal data centre, AI, telecom aur defence demand ki wajah se strong growth wale honge, jisse communication cable business ~Rs 500 crore se badh kar ~Rs 750 crore tak ja sakta hai.
Investors momentum bhi dekh rahe hain: 3 mahine mein 40.49%, YTD 2026 mein ~80%, 1 saal mein ~68% aur 5 saal mein ~187% return, ROE 16.18% hai. InCred ka maanna hai ki jab se fibre ke daam ek saal mein 5-6 guna badhe hain aur global supply tight hai, Finolex ka fibre-se-cable tak ka integrated chain usko price aur volume dono ka fayda dila sakta hai — bas naye plant ki execution hi discount khatam karne ki chaabi hogi.
InCred bullish kyu hai
Teen pillars: backward integration (khud ka copper rod + VAD preform), fibre cable capacity double, aur data-centre wali OFC demand jab global fibre shortage aur 5-6x price jump chal raha hai. Peers se sasta valuation hi catch-up ka mauka hai agar earnings deliver hui.
Timeline
- July end 2026 — Pehla 100 MT preform plant operational hua
- 11 Sep 2026 — 16% weekly surge ke baad stock Rs 1,423.25 par band hua

Aage kya dekhein
Dusre 100 MT preform ki execution, 8M fkm tak ramp, quarterly earnings mein captive fibre ka margin, aur kya peers se valuation discount sach mein narrow hota hai. Global fibre price aur data-centre capex bade triggers hain.
Kyun matter karta hai
Stock target ke paas aur peers se saste valuation par hai; aage ka upside 200 MT preform aur double OFC capacity ki earnings par depend karega.

Seedha consumer price impact nahi hai, par desi OFC capacity badhne se India ke data-centre aur 5G rollout ko support milega.
Seedhi baat
Fibre-se-cable tak integrated story hi thesis hai — execution hi discount khatam karega.

Finolex Cables share price surged nearly 16% in the week prior to the report around 14 Sep 2026.
InCred highlighted the stock trades at a steep discount to most Cables & Wires and OFC peers and expects the gap to narrow as earnings validate growth from expanded capacities.

Finolex set up a 100 MT preform plant operational by end-July and is adding another 100 MT to reach 200 MT total, doubling OFC capacity to 8 million fibre kilometres from 4 million km.
The expansion is expected to grow communication cable business to Rs 750 crore from ~Rs 500 crore, driven by data-centre, AI and telecom demand amid tight global fibre supply and 5-6x price rise.
