After months of flying under the radar, JP Power Ventures has found fresh energy on the bourses. The stock has surged around 11.4 per cent today morning (July 7, 2025), trading at Rs 21.4 on the BSE. This has left many investors wondering: Is this the start of something big, or just a short-lived power surge?
What’s fuelling the rally?
- The share price jumped from Rs 12.4 in early June to over Rs 20 in July — that’s a 27 per cent gain in a month.
- While Q4 net profit slipped 74 per cent year-on-year to Rs 155 crore, it was up 23 per cent quarter-on-quarter — a small but positive shift.
Investors seem to be betting on a turnaround, or at least some near-term upside, as the company tackles costs and pursues fresh capex.
