JP Chalasani, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group said, “The power generated from this project will serve the Commercial & Industrial (C&I) consumer segment, which is a key segment to drive deeper penetration of renewables in India”.
Suzlon Energy has enjoyed a market share of 33 percent in India’s domestic market based on total installations. It has 20GW of operational wind power capacity globally and is well ahead of its competitors, pointed out ICICI Securities. The company’s existing orderbook at 1.5GW bodes well for execution through the next two years, the domestic brokerage firm highlighted.
ICICI Securities also noted that Suzlon Energy has reduced leverage by restructuring its debt and by raising money through a rights issue. With these positives, the brokerage firm expects a sharp uptick in earnings from FY24 onwards. It initiated coverage on the stock with a ‘buy’ rating and target price of Rs 22 per share which implies a multiple of 24 times its FY25 EPS.
