Brokerages Bullish on Long-Term C&I Demand
The large secondary stake sale coincides with bullish initiations from institutional research desks tracking India's green energy shift.
Global brokerage Macquarie recently initiated coverage on Clean Max Enviro with an 'Outperform' rating and set a target price of ₹1,700 per share. Macquarie noted that the commercial and industrial (C&I) segment accounts for over half of India's electricity consumption, where roughly two-thirds of users remain reliant on pricier state distribution companies (DISCOMs). By shifting to C&I renewables, enterprises can realise electricity savings of up to 35% alongside meeting their decarbonisation mandates.
The brokerage also projects Clean Max's operational installed capacity to more than double to approximately 8 GW by FY29, bolstered by recurring corporate demand and rising energy consumption from AI and data centre infrastructure projects. The initiation followed a similar bullish assessment by domestic brokerage JM Financial.
Clean Max Enviro positions itself as an integrated corporate energy platform, catering to roughly 600 clients with multi-state regulatory access across India.
