The analyst explained that IRFC shares remain solid for the long term and buying at the lowest price could reap maximum profits. “IRFC, which surged following the budget, is now facing a significant correction. Analysts predict a sharp pullback of nearly 50% from its recent highs, with the price likely to drop to the ₹115-₹125 range. Such corrections are common after strong rallies, and this may be an opportune time for short-term investors to consider exiting the stock,” he said.
“While long-term prospects remain solid, the short-term outlook has shifted. Investors could find better re-entry points once the stock stabilizes at lower levels. To protect recent gains, it’s advisable to step back now and wait for a more favorable buying opportunity in the future.” Jain added.
