Railway Stocks Today: Oriental Rail Infrastructure's shares surged 5% during the intraday trade on Monday, reaching 170.30 to hit the upper circuit for the fourth consecutive day on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). The recent rally in the railway stock was triggered after the company got several new orders, and especially a deal for the Vande Bharat Express. Orinental Rail Infrastructure shares have increased by more than 22% in the last five days.
Oriental Rail Infrastructure Gets Multiple orders.
The Rail Coach Factory (RCF) Kapurthala has awarded Oriental Rail Infrastructure a Rs 42.89 crore order for the provision of seats for the Vande Bharat Express, India's first domestic semi-high-speed train. By July 24, 2026, the business is anticipated to provide these components. A Rs 3.08 crore order from Rail Coach Factory, Kapurthala, a Rs 1.61 crore order from North Western Railway in March 2025, and a Rs 1.64 crore order from Integral Coach Factory, Chennai, are among the few contracts the company has also secured in recent weeks.
These ongoing orders show that the railway industry in India has a high demand for the company's goods, which has helped to fuel the recent spike in the price of its stock.
Hitting the upper circuit for the past few sessions
The stock of Oriental Rail Infrastructure has had an incredible surge, rising over 22% in just five days. The shares finished at Rs 170.30 on March 10, 2025, after trading at Rs 139.40 on March 4, 2025. But despite this recent upswing, the stock has been quite volatile in recent months.
Oriental Rail Share Plunges over 22% In A Month
The railway stock has dropped 22.47% in the past month, from Rs 219.65 on February 10, 2025, to Rs 170.30 on March 10, 2025. The stock has fallen 47% since the start of the year, from Rs 321.65 on January 1, 2025, to its present price. The stock has lost 44% of its value in the last six months. The 52-week high for the stock stands at Rs 445, while the 52-week low is Rs 137.20.
Even though Oriental Rail Infrastructure's stock price has dropped precipitously since the beginning of 2025, the most recent Vande Bharat Express order has rekindled investor enthusiasm. Long-term development may be aided by the company's increasing involvement in railway expansion projects in India, although short-term volatility should still be monitored.
