what happened

According to TradingView, Mankind Pharma shares rose 9.3% on Tuesday to Rs 2,527, extending a two-day rally. The gains followed results for the September quarter, when net profit climbed 39.2% to Rs 712 crore and revenue rose 17.3% to Rs 4,338 crore. EBITDA grew 27.1%, and exports jumped 32.7%, while domestic revenue increased 14.8%.

Brokerages disagree on the stock. Kotak Institutional Equities keeps a Buy rating with a target of Rs 3,035, JPMorgan and Macquarie take a cautious stance, and Bernstein rates the shares Underweight, citing valuation and an uneven recovery across therapy segments.

why it matters

The move came alongside a broader pharma rally, with the Nifty Pharma index up 1.7%, while the Nifty 50 has fallen 13.2% so far in 2026. Investors will watch whether the company can sustain strong domestic growth on a low base as consumer demand recovers.
