The company has seen its stock rise approximately 3%, trading at Rs 452.90, up from Rs 440.60. This uptick comes on the heels of receiving a significant contract from the City & Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra Ltd (CIDCO), valued at Rs 2,038.61 crore, for the Integrated Infrastructure Development of Roads and Associated Structures under the NAINA Project.

As of June 2024, PNC Infratech boasted an order book totaling Rs 14,100 crore, with Road Highway, Expressway, and Canal EPC projects comprising a staggering 82% of its commitments.

For investors tracking performance, it’s crucial to understand the implications of these contracts not just for immediate stock movements, but also for long-term growth trajectories. Valor Estate and PNC Infratech are now prominently positioned in the Maharashtra market, poised to benefit from increased demand for infrastructure and housing solutions.
