Adani Power IPO Buy or Not
Irrespective of the expert opinion that will come out soon on stock market websites, StockMarketBaba recommends that investors buy into power stocks, as and when they are available at the right price. Investors should certainly do some buying in the Adani Power IPO and keep buying more at better prices.
In a nation as ours with a billion people and little penetration of electricity and low availability to corporates, the next phase of economic growth can happen only with the availability of electricity, and to that effect, Adani Power would be a good stock to buy and then keep accumulating over a few years. However, anyone looking for quick gains should rather look at other Power Stocks which will see action along with the Adani Power listing
