Terming the valuation 'very attractive', Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi said that stocks are almost available for 'free'.
"The company is financially very strong and even after completing the expansion process worth Rs 350 crore, it is debt free. On top of that, there are several factors that will work in favour of the company in the coming days. For example, they have already increased the prices of products and now the cost of raw materials is coming down. Century Enka's Nylon Tyre Cord Fabric is in huge demand as most of its customers have expanded their business. Also, the government has extended the anti-dumping duty on NCFT. So, all these factors will result in an increase in the margin by around 2-3%," Singhvi added.
Singhvi said that this share could easily give more than double returns in 3 years and investors can expect the target of Rs 700 in one year. He said Rs 1,000 and Rs 1,200 can easily be achieved in two and three years respectively.
