L&T Shares Jump 6% as Q2 Profit Surges 33%, Even as Jefferies Trims Target on Margin Pressure
Larsen & Toubro shares rallied sharply on Wednesday after the engineering and infrastructure major reported a 33% year-on-year rise in second-quarter net profit to Rs 5,202 crore, reinforcing investor confidence in its execution and order-book strength. Jefferies kept a Buy rating on the stock but lowered its target price to Rs 4,700, citing weaker-than-expected margins and reduced earnings estimates.
