Mansukh Securities on Ashok Leyland - Target of Rs 25


Mansukh Securities and Finance has maintained its buy rating on Ashok Leyland with a target of Rs 25 in its research report. "Commercial vehicles sales have shown a downward trend in recent past. Moreover, in days to come, Ashok Leyland seems to have a tough stance to match its volumes in the segment."


"The company has recently increased its capacity and has similar plans for future, keeping this in view, the company is expected to carry excess capacity till the time the volumes are not increased. Also the demand for CV is expected to be dependent on factors such as growth in GDP and IIP, trends in interest rates, and availability of bank credit. Considering, the above factors we maintain our BUY rating on the stock by lowering our price target to Rs 25. Higher dividend yield should provide downside protection from current levels," says Mansukh Securities and Finance's research report.
