Market experts suggest that the investors should now book profits and adopt a ‘Buy on Dip’ strategy.

RVNL, the infrastructure arm of Indian Railways, undertakes the projects for building new lines, doubling of tracks, railway electrification, metro projects, construction of major bridges, workshops, cable stay bridges and institution buildings.

Analysts suggest that though the stock has given good returns it has entered the overbought territory which could make investment risky. There is a high possibility that the stock will see a decline soon.

Pravesh Gaur, Senior Technical Analyst, Swastik Investmart, suggests that investors should adopt a buy on dip strategy for RVNL stock.

According to Jigar S Patel, Senior Manager, Technical Research Analyst, Anand Rathi Shares & Stockbrokers, the Rail Vikas Nigam Limited stock is not a good buy at current levels. Therefore, the investors must wait until the stock hits a price of Rs 90, then this stock can be included in the portfolio for a long term.
