BEL Share Price Target

Mandar Bhojane – Equity Research Analyst at Choice Broking said, “BEL is currently trading at ₹273, maintaining a strong upward trajectory after rebounding from the ₹244 level and regaining bullish momentum. The stock has successfully closed above key resistance levels, reinforcing its positive trend. Additionally, BEL is trading comfortably above its 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), further strengthening the bullish outlook. The recent breakout above the ₹282 resistance level indicates potential for further appreciation. If the current momentum continues and additional resistance levels are surpassed, BEL could target ₹300 in the near term. On the downside, immediate support is observed at ₹269.”

“The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 56 and is trending sideways, indicating neutral sentiment. Traders considering an entry at the current price of ₹273 may set a target of ₹300 while adhering to disciplined risk management practices. To mitigate risk and protect against unexpected market reversals, a stop-loss at ₹265 is recommended. Given the favorable technical setup and strong market indicators, BEL presents a compelling buying opportunity,” commented Mandar Bhojane.

“After reaching a high of 340 in July 2024, the stock is currently undergoing a secondary correction, marked by a lower top and lower bottom formation. Recently, the stock broke out from a Symmetrical Triangle formation and surged upwards but found resistance around the Rs280 level. A sustained move above Rs280 could propel the stock higher, potentially reaching Rs310,” stated Mr. Aditya Gaggar Director of Progressive Shares.

“Bharat Electronics stock price is slightly bearish on the Daily charts with strong resistance at 282.2. A Daily close below support of 263 could lead to a target of 240 in the near term,” suggested A R Ramachandran, Independent Research Analyst.
