Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
BHEL's standalone Q2 FY26 revenue rose 14% year on year to Rs 7,512 cr, and net profit jumped to Rs 368 cr from Rs 97 cr; EPS was Rs 1.06. Consolidated profit was Rs 375 cr. For April to September, revenue reached Rs 12,999 cr but net loss was Rs 87 cr, with operating cash outflow of Rs 1,182 cr. Auditors highlighted unprovided receivables of Rs 211 cr from STPG and Rs 98 cr on the Suratgarh 7 and 8 power project.
Strong Q2 profit recovery is positive, but half-year losses, heavy cash burn and doubtful receivables could weigh on the stock.
