Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Eicher Motors Board has approved Rs 1,225 Crore investment for Phase I of a Greenfield plant in Andhra Pradesh. The new plant will add up to 4.5 lakh motorcycles per year, taking total capacity to 24.5 lakh units annually. Current plants in Tamil Nadu at Oragadam and Vallam Vadagal are nearing full utilisation of about 15 lakh units. Funding will come from internal accruals. The project is expected to be completed by FY 2029-30.
Major capacity expansion for long-term growth. Funded internally so no dilution risk, but multi-year execution timeline.
