Meesho Shares Dip After Block Deal Amid UBS Target Price Hike and Profitability Focus
Meesho shares fell nearly 4% following a block deal worth approximately Rs 900 crore, after surging nearly 10% the previous day due to UBS raising its target price to Rs 260. UBS cited higher medium-term growth and improved margin prospects driven by expanding sellers, buyers, SKUs, and logistics partners. While Meesho's net merchandise value grew robustly, profitability depends on expanding advertising margins alongside logistics efficiency, with management aiming to improve contribution margins amid industry cost pressures.
