Global brokerage firm HSBC maintained its ‘Buy’ rating on LTIMindtree and raised the target price to ₹6,000 from ₹5,900 earlier.
The brokerage said LTIMindtree’s Q1 performance was broadly in line with expectations and showed continued improvement in fundamentals.Over the medium to long term, HSBC expects LTIMindtree’s growth to be nearly double that of mega-cap IT firms, with potential for strong growth pick-up at still-attractive valuations.
Nuvama also reiterated its ‘Buy’ call and sharply raised the target price to ₹6,200 from ₹5,200.
The brokerage said that LTIMindtree has faced multiple macro and micro challenges over the past two years, leading to repeated disappointments. However, under new CEO Venu Lambu, who is targeting industry-leading growth and margin expansion, the company now appears to be turning the corner.Nuvama believes LTIMindtree is in a unique position: trading below the expensive, high-growth Tier-2 IT firms and above the relatively inexpensive, low-growth Tier-1 companies. This places it in a sweet spot for “growth at reasonable valuation” with a favourable risk-reward profile.
Morgan Stanley, which has an ‘Equal-weight’ rating and a target price of ₹5,400, said management expects to maintain growth and margin momentum. However, the commentary could have been more bullish if macro conditions were more supportive.
Morgan Stanley said that limited EPS changes compared to peers bode well for the company.
Nomura maintained a ‘Neutral’ rating with a target price of ₹5,040, citing improving growth visibility . It said FY26 is likely to be a “year of repair” and factored in a slightly higher tax rate for the fiscal year.
