Hyundai Motor India Limited's (HMIL) stock witnessed a sharp swing in today’s trading session, briefly hitting a 52-week high of Rs 2,147.10 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) before losing steam and slipping into the red.

Hyundai India's stock upturn 

While there was no major company-specific announcement influencing Wednesday’s movement, various brokerage firms attribute the recent uptrend to Hyundai’s consistent performance in passenger vehicle sales and investor expectations surrounding its future electric vehicle (EV) portfolio in India. 

For instance, JM Financials gave a ‘Buy’ rating and a price target of Rs. 2137. Furthermore, Motilal Oswal gave a revised target of Rs 2,137, reinforcing confidence in Hyundai’s long-term growth story.

Robust financials 

Despite a slight decline in its Q4 net profit to Rs 1,614 crore—a 4% drop year-on-year—Hyundai’s overall financials remain solid. The South Korean carmaker maintains a healthy return on equity of over 25%, low leverage with a debt-to-equity ratio below 0.05, and robust export growth expectations for FY26, as stated by the company earlier. 

The company had earlier stated that it will be able to offset a slowdown in domestic sales with higher exports, which are projected to grow between 7–8% this fiscal.
