Nomura Retains Buy on Great Eastern Shipping, Projects Up to 28% Upside
Great Eastern Shipping's shares rose about 3% following Nomura's positive outlook, which includes a Buy rating and a target price implying up to 28% upside. Nomura highlights the company's strong Rs 8,000 crore net cash position, enabling fleet expansion during potential shipping market downturns without external capital. The brokerage projects conservative earnings for FY28 and FY29, assuming lower spot rates, but expects the company to add vessels and leverage market opportunities through disciplined capital allocation and cash reserves.
