Paytm‘s share price continued its bull run at the bourses on Friday as the stock climbed close to 5% to hit an intraday high of ₹809.90 — close to its 52-week high of ₹844.70.
What Happened: Shares of the company have had a great run at the bourses since the start of the year. The Paytm share price is up over 50% year-to-date. Just yesterday, the stock surged up close to 8% after BofA Securities upgraded the stock’s rating to ‘buy’ with a price target of ₹855.
The stock received a similar boost today after global brokerage firm CLSA maintained its ‘buy’ rating on the stock with a price target of ₹850. So with this impressive surge, if you invest ₹10,000 now, here’s what would happen if the stock goes on to hit its IPO price.
