Analysts remain positive on Suzlon Energy, citing strong growth prospects and an improving financial trajectory, despite concerns around execution and order flows in the near term. Domestic brokerage house Motilal Oswal advised investors to buy the stock with a target price of ₹66, stating that the current price offers an attractive entry point for investors seeking exposure to the renewable energy sector.
Motilal Oswal expects Suzlon Energy to record consistent financial improvement, supported by a projected 13.6% expansion in earnings and return on equity staying around 28% for 2026-27. The brokerage also highlighted that Suzlon has a strong order book and a wide global presence across 17 countries.
JM Financial also had a bullish view on the stock, noting that India's peak power demand during hot and humid evening hours is increasingly aligning with solar-hour demand patterns in El Niño-like conditions, creating a mismatch that places additional strain on the grid when nearly 80 GW of solar generation is unavailable. The brokerage expects India to record its highest-ever capacity addition in FY27, surpassing the previous peak of 6.1 GW in FY26.
However, JM Financial flagged execution concerns for Suzlon, highlighting a widening gap between deliveries and installations. As of March 31, 2025, Suzlon had 371 MW of systems erected and ready for commissioning, about 10% above installations, which increased to 776 MW by December 31, 2025, around 76% above installations.
