There has been immense speculation regarding the performance of NHPC, especially after updates regarding the Government takeover of projects in Himachal Pradesh, asset securitization drives by the company, and of course, the company commissioning projects that were long delayed, with cost overruns. Share prices have closed at ₹83 today after opening at ₹76.50, which indicates a jump of 8.49%. Interestingly, the opening price was itself lower than 4th April’s closing price of ₹83.49 by a whopping 8.37%.

NHPC share prices make for a fascinating story, especially after they touched ₹81.57 by midday, indicating a rise of 6.62% from the disappointing opening figures of ₹76.50. The latter was 8.37% lower than the closing price of ₹83.49 on 4th April, although the share prices seem to have made up quite a bit in midday trading. This may lead to improved investor sentiments around the PSU stock, which has been in the news for its asset securitization drive of ₹2,000 crore and also for commissioning long-delayed projects with cost overruns.

The highest point for the day was ₹81.25 for the stock, while the lowest was ₹78.04 after the initial increase. Will it get back to its former position? Only time will tell!
