Shares of NTPC Green Energy, the renewable energy subsidiary of India's power producer NTPC, surged by as much as 14% on their trading debut Wednesday, driven by investor optimism about the country's increasing clean energy demand.

At 12:27 p.m, the stock rose 12.4% to Rs 121.35, compared to the IPO price of Rs 108, giving the company a market value of Rs 1.02 trillion ($12.08 billion), exceeding its target valuation of $10.8 billion.


"As expected NTPC Green Energy listing was in line with flat debut. Valuations and subdued market mood justify the listing. For long-term investors, we believe NTPC Green Energy Ltd is a great opportunity to invest in a leading player in India’s renewable energy sector, backed by the formidable resources and expertise of NTPC Ltd as a long-term strategy only," said Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities.

Tapse added, "With ambitious renewable energy targets, the company is well-equipped to capitalize on the increasing demand for sustainable energy solutions. NTPC Green's strategic expansion into green hydrogen, green chemicals, and battery storage further enhances its growth prospects, positioning it at the forefront of India’s energy transition."

"Considering all the parameters, allotted investors should consider holding it for the long term despite short-term volatility in the markets. For non-allotted investors, we advise accumulating if the listing is around the issue price or even below," Tapse said.

Shivani Nyati, Head of Wealth at Swastika Investmart, said, "Despite the aggressive pricing based on the PE ratio, the company's long-term prospects in the renewable energy space make it a suitable option for patient investors with a long-term horizon, and we recommend holding it with a stop loss around Rs 110."

Meanwhile, Gaurav Garg, Research Analyst at Lemonn, said, "We would advise people who invested for short term gains to exit and book profits."
