BSE Capital Goods index tanks nearly 4%; Hitachi Energy, ABB India slip 6%

BSE moved lower.

· Business Standard Mkts

In the past month, the BSE capital goods index slipped 12% as against a 2.8% decline in the BSE Sensex.

BSE reported movement of 4%, 6% and 12%. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.

Against that, the stock is -3.7% on the day at ₹26,025.00, and has returned -15.7% over three months. It sits 32% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The power sector has moved -16.6% over the same period, so Hitachi Energy India is running 0.9 points ahead of its peers.

For Hitachi Energy India, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the power peer set alongside it.

  • With BSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
  • The company directly in focus is POWERINDIA.
  • Sector exposure: Power, Capital Goods & Engineering, Capital Markets.
  • The immediate tone of coverage reads negative.
