Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (NSE: BHEL) shares took a breather on Tuesday after an early spike, slipping 0.9% intraday to ₹263.70 as traders booked profits following a high-profile contract win. The counter had rallied sharply after the company secured a ₹6,500 crore thermal power equipment order from Adani Power, one of its biggest project wins in recent quarters.
The stock opened on a strong note at ₹267.75, touching the day’s high before gradually losing steam. By midday, BHEL was trading near its session low of ₹263, with visible pressure on the order book. Sell volumes overtook buy demand, with nearly 23.5 lakh shares on offer against 9.3 lakh in demand.
It’s a sign that traders may have already priced in the positive announcement and are now rotating out to lock in gains.
What’s Fueling the BHEL Buzz?
BHEL’s latest boost comes from a major ₹6,500 crore contract awarded by Adani Power. The deal covers the supply and construction of six thermal power units, each packing 800 MW, a massive addition to the company’s project portfolio. It’s a big win that reinforces BHEL’s place in India’s power equipment space.
The timing couldn’t be better. As India ramps up investments in energy infrastructure, BHEL’s consistent order inflow from both government and private players. Positions it as a strong play on the country’s long-term power ambitions.
