Defense PSU stock, Bharat Dynamics shares down by 45%, What to expect now

The Shares of Bharat Dynamics Ltd (BDL) have fallen 45% from their 52-week high level, but analysts are mixed over the defense PSU stock's return prospects. Affected by the Russia-Ukraine war and conflicts in the Middle East region, shares continued to affect supply chain issues, leading to delays in the receipt of inputs, which impacted BDL's performance in the September quarter. The company expects most of these issues to be resolved by H2FY25.

On Friday, shares of BDL closed at Rs 989.80, up 1.04%. The scrip is down 44.84% from its 52-week high of Rs 1,794.70 hit on July 5. This brokerage has revised its FY26 projections for revenue, EBITDA, and PAT by 26%, 11%, and 10%, respectively.
