Stock recommendation: Jefferies maintains ‘Buy’ rating on JSW Energy
Jefferies maintained its ‘Buy’ rating on JSW Energy and raised its target price to Rs 675 (from Rs 660), citing a potential upside of about 31%.
The brokerage upgraded its target following JSW Energy’s strategic Rs 3,150-crore stake sale in JSW Steel, which brings several key positives to the company’s outlook:
Deleveraging: The share monetisation provides balance sheet flexibility, allowing the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio to potentially drop to 5.7x in FY27.
Capital Efficiency: The brokerage assumes a portion of the funds will directly support capex, trimming absolute interest cost estimates for FY27–30.
Earnings Forecast: Jefferies projects a strong 17% EBITDA CAGR between FY26 and FY30, and has raised PAT estimates for FY27–30 by 3–6%

Stock recommendation: Nomura: Anchor Report Avalon Technologies
India EMS: Avalon – Play on global industrial EMS upcycle
Avalon Tech: Initiating at Buy and INR1,722 TP
We believe global capex cycles across power and semiconductors are likely to see a structural uptick over a long time period. The rise of generative AI is driving strong power demand from datacenters, and at the same time memory shortages are spurring investments in semiconductor production equipment (SPE). Also, countries’ focus on nearshoring, clean energy and BESS are likely to drive higher investments. This could create meaningful opportunities for the outsourced industrial EMS segment (~8-20% of project capex) in terms of power electronics, control systems, etc. Capable smaller EMS players with global footprint should be key beneficiaries of this trend, in our view.
Key themes covered in this Anchor Report:
– EMS TAM analysis across multiple emerging segments such as HVDC, energy storage, and SPE.
– Comparison of global EMS players’ outlook, segment exposure and profitability, as well as comparison of India B2B EMS players across various metrics.
– We believe Avalon’s unique positioning as a vertically integrated EMS player, focussing on box build in these segments, US manufacturing footprint and in-roads into key customers will help it capitalize on the strong opportunity in this segment. We initiate coverage with a Buy rating and a TP of INR1,722.
