The company, although falling short of Street estimates, maintained its growth guidance for FY24 at 17.5–18.5%, hinting at a potentially robust Q4, as highlighted by brokerage Nuvama Institutional Equities.

Positive Signals for Q4

The brokerage went a step further by upgrading L&T Technology Services’ stock to a ‘BUY,’ setting a target price of ₹6,260, up from the previous ₹5,200.

Technical Analysis Signals Positive Momentum

Equity Technical and Derivative Analyst, Rajesh Bhosale of Angel One, emphasized the positive technical indicators for L&T Tech. After two days of profit booking, the stock has initiated a positive move, supported by above-average volume in the first hour of trading.
