Highway Infra Share Listing Today: Should you buy, sell or hold?
Narendra Solanki, Head Fundamental Research – Investment Services, Anand Rathi Shares and Stock Brokers, noted, as of May 31, 2025, the company held a consolidated order book of Rs 6,663.0 million, with Rs 595.3 million from the tollway collection segment and Rs 6,067.8 million from the EPC Infra-division.
“We expect the company to list at premium to its issue price, given the current Grey Market Premium,” he said.
“At the upper price band, the company is valued at a FY25 P/E of 22.5x, with a post-issue market capitalization of Rs 5,020 million. It presents a niche opportunity in India’s tollway and EPC infrastructure space, supported by consistent growth and a robust order book. The use of ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) technology in toll systems provides a competitive advantage, while the combination of toll and EPC businesses offers diversified revenue streams. Investors may consider booking partial profits on listing and holding the rest for long-term post listing,” he added.
