Mishra Dhatu Nigam Limited (MIDHANI) shares rose 11 per cent in intraday trade to Rs 452.35 after the company secured S400 approval from GE Aerospace, touching a 52-week high during the session. The move came amid heavy volume and followed a substantial recovery from the stock's 52-week low of Rs 266.70 recorded on 30 March 2026. The rise contrasted with a slight decline in the benchmark BSE Sensex on the same day. The average trading volume at the counter jumped over seven-fold, with a combined six point two one million (mn) equity shares changing hands on the NSE and BSE. The stock has recovered 71 per cent from its 52-week low. MIDHANI said it became the first company in India to secure Independent and International Metallic Material Laboratory S400 approval for a wide range of chemical, mechanical and metallurgical testing from GE Aerospace, signalling adherence to global testing standards. The company indicated that the recognition reflected its commitment to quality and technical excellence and reinforced its position as a partner to the global aerospace industry. Management characterised the achievement as a step towards strengthening domestic capabilities in advanced materials. A brokerage note from ICICI Securities assessed the first quarter of FY27 execution as healthy across superalloys, titanium alloys and other critical materials, while noting that higher costs of critical raw materials had weighed on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization margins which are expected to normalise over the coming quarters. It added that a rising share of value added products and increased recycling of raw materials should support structural margin improvement. The firm highlighted an order book of Rs 23,290 mn equal to one point eight times trailing twelve months revenue and reported that management guided 20 per cent year-on-year revenue growth for FY27 and FY28 with EBITDA margin at 23-25 per cent versus 18-20 per cent over the last three years.
