What the INR 1,696 target implies
The target comes from Moneycontrol, which reported that Religare Broking expects the Jio Platforms listing to improve value visibility. The analyst case uses an INR 1,696 target against the October 12 closing price of INR 1,156.00. Measured against the October 19 NSE price, the target implies 41.10 percent upside.
