No company news explained the move, and the exchange sought clarification on 1 October about the price movement. The stock closed at Rs 167.80 on 1 October, which is already at the top of one brokerage&#8217;s Rs 160 to Rs 168 target range, and traded near Rs 163 on 5 October, about 94% above the IPO price. With a P\/E near 170 and trailing profit of about Rs 41 crore, valuation is the main risk, so the Rs 118 level that one brokerage used as a stop-loss is the key support.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hero Motors share price rose 20% on Friday, 25 September, opening at Rs 130 against a previous close of Rs 118.21 and touching an intraday high of Rs 141.85. It was the third straight 20% session after a lacklustre listing on 23 September, when the stock opened at Rs 82 on the NSE against the Rs 84 IPO price.<\/p>\n<p>If you are searching for what drove the Hero Motors share price, the Hero Motors target price and the Hero Motors stop-loss, this article covers the Hero Motors IPO and listing, the powertrain business led by Pankaj Munjal with clients such as BMW, the Swastika Investmart view, the anchor allocation, P\/E valuation, the three-day rally and why no news explains it, the update on 5 October and the risks.
