Shares of railways consultancy firm hit its intraday high of Rs 221.90, up 4.32 per cent on the BSE today.

Avinnash Gorakssakar, HoR, Joindre Capital still sees an upside of over 15 per cent from the current levels in the next three to six months. 

"I see target of Rs 220-225 in the near-term. The stock has a potential to undergo a rerating after the company announces its quarterly numbers and management defines its commentary on future growth. The company is debt free whose return ratios are positive too. Thus, investors can still see 15 per cent upside if they buy at current levels," he said.
