Reliance Power shares have experienced significant fluctuations, reflecting investor sentiment and market dynamics. The stock has been a focal point in recent trading sessions, particularly after the announcement of a board meeting scheduled for October 3, 2024, which has led to a notable decline in share prices.
Main Points
On September 30, 2024, Reliance Power shares tumbled nearly 5%, breaking an 8-day winning streak. The shares closed at approximately ₹44.69, down from previous highs. This decline occurred despite a recent surge in share price, where the stock had risen by 4.99% earlier that day, reaching a peak of ₹51.10 before settling lower.

Upcoming Board Meeting
The upcoming board meeting on October 3 is anticipated to be pivotal for investors as it will discuss the issuance of up to 46.2 crore equity shares and/or warrants, valued at around ₹1,525 crore through a preferential allotment. This move aims to bolster the company’s financial position and expand its operational capabilities.
Prominent investors such as Authum Investment and Infrastructure Limited are expected to participate in this preferential issue, alongside Reliance Infrastructure Limited, which plans to increase its stake significantly by investing over ₹600 crore. This infusion of capital is seen as a strategic move to enhance the company’s growth trajectory.
Despite the recent downturn, technical analysis indicates potential support levels at ₹50.13 (S1) and ₹49.15 (S2), while resistance levels are identified at ₹51.59 (R1) and ₹52.07 (R2). The stock’s volatility is reflected in its beta value of 2.12, suggesting higher risk compared to the broader market.
The stock has shown remarkable resilience over longer periods:
- 6-Month Performance: +76.88%
- 1-Year Performance: +165.45%
- 3-Year Performance: +276.29%
- 5-Year Performance: +1911.81%
These figures highlight Reliance Power’s strong recovery and growth potential within the power generation sector, despite facing challenges such as consistent losses over recent quarters.
Looking ahead, investor focus will likely remain on the outcomes of the upcoming board meeting and any strategic decisions made regarding capital allocation and operational expansion plans. Analysts suggest that successful execution of these plans could lead to further upward momentum in share prices.
