With bond yields surging globally, high debt companies will face severe margin pressure, while cash-rich, low-leverage businesses will trade at a premium.

Kanohar electricals is on fire!

11% up, a new ATH 🚀

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

@shiladitya4u I am indicating price movements after listing. Both businesses are different though.
Kanohar may also do well as per their order book size and one of the only five Indian companies with 400kV short-circuit certification and RDSO approval for railways.

Means once AI bubble burst, that smart money will fly to India!? 🤔

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

FIIs pulled out over ₹44,000 crore from Indian stocks in September.

Although DIIs are providing support through steady SIP inflows, but this alone will not trigger a broader market rally. Expecting a range bound market until liquidity returns.

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

Top themes which will continue to do well and worth to buy on dips -

1. Electronics Component Localization & Sub-Assembly
- PCB, Semiconductor, Precision Casing & Thermal Management Suppliers

Where there's a will, there's a life!

Proud of Captain Smit Machchhar - A real life Hero!

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

True that, and moreover Indians could have been targeted across the world!

Such attacks are usually well planned after analysing probable outcome, the planners already know who the co-pilot and passengers would be. Now the concern is if one tactic has failed they may plan another tactics to achieve the similar outcome.

#captainsmitmachchhar #hero #flydubai #terroristattack

[Shiv Aroor @ShivAroor]

If the FlyDubai plane had crashed, foreign racists, Pak infowar armies, paid influencers &amp; India’s pseudo-activist ecosystem would have ensured the Indian pilot was blamed. 🙏🏽

#investing #stockmarket #nifty #smallcap

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

Some high growth business which would be huge benificiary from Green Energy Corridor phase - 3

1. Quality Power Electrical Equipments - QPOWER has growth triggers from HVDC/FACTS, data-center orders and renewable grid connectivity, with a group order book over ₹1,400 crore and a strong pipeline.

2. Skipper Ltd - India’s largest PGCIL tower supplier with a record ₹8,500 crore order book, capacity rising to 4.5 lakh tonnes and export expansion.

3. Hitachi Energy India Ltd - The largest beneficiary of physical line expansion. Demand for premium High-Temperature Low-Sag (HTLS) and AL59 conductors is surging as utilities upgrade transmission line capacity without expanding right-of-way (RoW). Management guidance consistently targets 15–20% volume growth in high-value conductors and premium cables, with export market expansion.

4. Transformers & Rectifiers India - TARIL has a record ₹6,630 crore order book, mega PGCIL inflows and capacity expansion; management guides healthy visibility.

5. Shilchar Technologies - Offers high-margin (~29%) export-heavy renewable transformers, debt-free with FY27 revenue guidance of ₹800 crore.

5. Genus Power - Leads smart-metering (core digital-grid data layer) with a ₹24,000–25,000 crore 8–9 year AMISP order book and FY27 revenue guidance of ₹6,000–6,500 crore. FII holding ~19%, DII rising; notable HNI buying.

6. Yash Highvoltage - A pure-play transformer bushing specialist used in every high-voltage transformer across grid evacuation, substations and BESS-linked projects. FY26 revenue grew 57% with 25.7% EBITDA margins and a ₹400 Cr+ order book; capacity is fully booked into FY27 with a greenfield plant and US subsidiary.

7. Techno Electric - Preferred EPC contractor for complex power sub-stations, smart grid infrastructure, and data center EPCs. Strong balance sheet with net-cash balance (~₹1,500+ Cr in liquid reserves), zero net debt, and ROCE maintained above 20%. Concall guidance targets an order book execution pipeline exceeding ₹10,000 Crore over 2–3 years.

These names sit in the GEC-III beneficiary chain with visible 1–3 year order-book and capex triggers. Valuations are elevated across the theme; treat as research ideas only and verify latest filings before any decision.

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

PM @narendramodi's Cabinet just approved a massive ₹1.86 Lakh Crore package for the GEC-lll.

If you want to play the energy transition right, stop chasing basic solar panel stocks and check these real proxy vectors which will get huge benifits across all divisions:

1. Grid Modernization & Evacuation
Relieving state network congestion to smoothly evacuate 135 GW of clean power.
👉 The Beneficiaries: High-voltage switchgears, gas-insulated substations (GIS), and heavy EPC infrastructure players.

2. Utility BESS Explosion
A whopping ₹50,000 Cr targeting 50 GWh of battery storage to eliminate renewable power intermittency.
👉 The Beneficiaries: Bi-directional inverters, battery pack assemblers, and specialized thermal/liquid cooling hardware.

3. Transmission Hardware
Massive volume expansions needed for the physical line buildouts.
👉 The Beneficiaries: Specialized ceramic/glass insulators, power transmission towers, and high-capacity conductors.

4. The Transformer Squeeze
Handling huge load fluctuations from 135 GW of volatile wind/solar requires high-tech step-up transformers.
👉 The Beneficiaries: Transformer manufacturers and smart-grid automation suppliers.

5. Grid Intelligence Software
You can't run a smart grid without high-margin automation software to balance the network.
👉 The Beneficiaries: Energy Management Systems (EMS), SCADA networks, and digital sub-station control software.

6. Advanced Materials & Commodities
The ultimate raw material bottleneck for the clean energy transition.
👉 The Beneficiaries: High-grade copper, advanced battery chemicals, and electrical steel (CRGO) used in transformers.

The Financial Reality Check:
Backed by a structural ₹54,082 Cr government subsidy, executing companies under the TBCB competitive bidding model get massive margin cushion and revenue visibility stretching all the way to FY 2032–33.

The rapid expansion of AI data centers, electric vehicles, and renewable energy is creating a major bottleneck - not in power generation, but in grid capacity and electricity delivery infrastructure. Modernizing aging power grids has now become a critical global priority.

[Krishna Gupta @Krishg25]

This isn't just another green headline. It is a massive, multi-year capex wave designed to solve the biggest issue in Indian power: grid congestion. The government is injecting ₹54,082 Cr in central subsidies to fast-track this, giving executing companies massive revenue visibility all the way to FY 2032–33.

If you want to find the true alpha, look past the obvious power generators and track where this 1.86 Lakh Crore will actually be spent.
