They said that IREDA share price has given a technical breakout at ₹125 per share level.

If IREDA delivered Q3 results in sync with the market expectations, then IREDA share price may soon touch the ₹172 zone. On market expectations from IREDA Q3 results today, Shreyansh V. Shah, Research Analyst at StoxBox said, "IREDA is fully owned by the Government of India (GoI) and is of strategic importance for the promotion and development of the RE sector in India.

Given its sovereign ownership, the lender’s average cost of funds remains stable and we thus expect NIMs to remain stable in Q3FY23. Additionally, due to its various co-financing deals and good financial flexibility, the finance arm will be able to mobilize funds at competitive rates. With asset quality in place, we anticipate the bottom line to grow at a faster pace due to increased consumption in the energy sector which will ensure new capex plans in the power sector going forward.
