Lupin Shares Fall After Citi Downgrade; ICICI Prudential AMC Declines on Block Deal
Lupin shares declined following Citi's downgrade to 'Sell' and a target price cut to Rs 2,050, citing expected declines in its US base business and margin pressures. Citi projects US sales to drop from around $1.3 billion in FY26 to $975 million by FY29 and reduced FY27 EPS estimates by 14%. While new products like Apixaban may offer limited support, they are unlikely to offset overall earnings challenges. Meanwhile, ICICI Prudential AMC shares fell over 3% after a large block deal, and Adani Energy shares rose 1% on positive order wins.
