Nifty Share Price News Desk, 06 March 2026: Shares of SEPC Limited (Shriram EPC), a major player in the Indian infrastructure sector, fell today, Thursday, 5 March. On the National Stock Exchange (NSE), the company’s share closed at ₹7.09, down 1.12% from the previous session. On the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the price was around ₹6.87 to ₹7.08. Today’s trading saw a volume of 2.55 crore shares, which is higher than the company’s average trading. Although this drop has raised concerns among investors, the company’s strong financial position and order book keep the long-term outlook positive. In this article, we will review SEPC’s latest updates, total debt, returns to investors, the status of the order book, and a detailed look at the targets set by major brokerage firms.
Today’s updates on NSE-BSE: High volume even in decline
On 5 March 2026, SEPC’s share opened at ₹7.17 on NSE, but during the day it dropped to a low of ₹6.92 after a high of ₹7.15. It settled at ₹7.09 with a fall of 8 paise (₹0.08). On BSE, the price was slightly lower, trading around ₹6.87 in the morning with a volume of 11,551 shares.
Over the past year, the company’s share has dropped from a 52-week high of ₹16.49 to a current low of ₹6.90. The market capitalization has fallen to ₹1,373.63 crore. This decline is probably due to the usual volatility in the infrastructure sector and fears of a global economic slowdown, but investor confidence remains strong thanks to the company’s quarterly results.
SEPC Limited’s total debt: a decreasing liability
SEPC Limited’s financial health is improving. According to the latest information up to March 2026, the company’s total debt has come down to ₹364.6 crore. The debt/equity ratio has decreased to 0.25, which is a big improvement compared to 0.37 in March 2025. Long-term debt stands at ₹262.59 crore, and the company is working towards being almost debt-free by March 2026. This reduction in debt will positively impact the company’s operational efficiency and make it attractive for investors.
Returns received by investors: dividends and share performance
SEPC has given good dividends to investors so far, but due to recent share performance, the total shareholder return (TSR) has remained negative. Last year (2025) the company had declared a dividend of ₹1.20 per share for the full year. However, since information on recent dividends is limited in historical data, the total dividend payout per share could be around ₹2-3 (cumulative for 2020-2026).
However, due to the fall in share prices, TSR has remained at -49.75% (over the past year). Investors suffered losses as it dropped 52%, even though the market went up by 5%. Still, the company has given a low return on equity (ROE) of -1.52% over 3 years, and promoter holding is at 27.2%. For long-term investors, recovery seems possible in the future due to dividends and the order book.
Order book status: Strong growth at record levels
SEPC’s order book is the key to the company’s future. As per the latest update until 31 December 2025, the total consolidated order book has reached ₹10,455 crore, which is double the ₹4,501 crore in March 2025. On a standalone basis (excluding SEPC FZE), the order book is ₹7,255 crore. This growth is due to large orders in the mining and construction sectors, with the company reporting revenue of ₹340.97 crore, up 156.35%, and a net profit of ₹14.96 crore in the Q3 FY26 results announced in February 2026. Although there are no new updates until March 2026, this strength will give the company multi-year growth.
Top brokerage firms’ target: positive outlook
Top brokerage firms are positive on SEPC. For 2026, some analysts have set targets between ₹8.38 and ₹9.13, indicating an upside of 18-29% from current prices. According to Wallet Investor, the target could be ₹8.276 in 14 days. Firms like Trendline and Motilal Oswal have given ‘buy’ recommendations, and based on intrinsic value, the share is trading at a 64% discount. However, based on old estimates (2024), some had set targets of ₹185-339, which are not in line with the current market conditions.
Conclusion: Chances of recovery
Although 5 March 2026 is a declining day for SEPC Limited, the strong order book and reduced debt make the future look bright. Investors should maintain a long-term perspective and cope with market volatility. For more updates, refer to the NSE/BSE websites or the company’s official website.
