Stocks to Watch Today, Thursday, November 12, 2026: Tata Power, Triveni Turbine, Hindustan Copper, Power Grid, Cupid

Mumbai, Nov 12: Here are five stocks in focus on Thursday, from 48.6 per cent profit jump for Tata Power to 41.6 per cent profit fall for Triveni Turbine to 181.9 per cent profit surge for Hindustan Copper to project win for Power Grid to profit more than doubling at Cupid. Here are some key points to note from today’s session.

Tata Power (TATAPOWER)

Tata Power reported a 48.6 per cent year-on-year (YoY) jump in consolidated net profit to Rs 1,366 crore in Q2 FY27, compared with Rs 919 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.

The rise works out to Rs 447 crore in absolute terms. Among the four companies in focus that reported quarterly results, Tata Power posted the largest profit, at more than 2.6 times the Rs 518.1 crore reported by Hindustan Copper. Tata Power is one of India’s largest integrated power companies, with operations across generation, transmission and distribution, and it sits in the same sector as Power Grid, which is in focus for a fresh transmission project win.

Triveni Turbine (TRITURBINE)

Triveni Turbine reported a 41.6 per cent YoY decline in net profit to Rs 53.3 crore for the September quarter of FY27, compared with Rs 91.2 crore in the year-ago period.

The fall works out to Rs 37.9 crore in absolute terms, making Triveni Turbine the only company among the four reporting results today to post a lower profit. The company makes steam turbines and provides related products and services to industrial and power customers, so its earnings are typically tied to the pace of order execution. The stock may react to the sharp drop in profit when trading opens on Thursday. Investors will look for details on the order book and margins in the company’s upcoming earnings commentary.

Hindustan Copper (HINDCOPPER)

Hindustan Copper reported a 181.9 per cent YoY surge in consolidated net profit to Rs 518.1 crore in Q2 FY27, against Rs 183.8 crore in the year-ago quarter. Revenue grew 63.7 per cent to Rs 1,175.2 crore from Rs 718 crore.

Profit grew nearly three times as fast as revenue, which lifted the margin. On the figures above, net profit works out to about 44.1 per cent of revenue, against about 25.6 per cent a year ago. The absolute rise in profit is Rs 334.3 crore, on an increase in revenue of Rs 457.2 crore. The state-owned copper miner has delivered the strongest profit growth among the four companies in focus that reported results.

Power Grid Corporation of India (POWERGRID)

Power Grid Corporation of India has been declared the successful bidder for the establishment of a 3X500 MVA, 400/220 kV substation at Humnabad, Karnataka, along with associated transmission lines, on a build, own, operate and transfer (BOOT) basis. The project has been awarded at a quoted annual transmission charge of Rs 243.34 crore.

With this project, the company has secured 11 transmission system projects under the tariff-based competitive bidding (TBCB) route in FY27 so far, with cumulative annual transmission charges of Rs 8,106.97 crore. The Humnabad project accounts for about 3 per cent of that total, and the other 10 projects together account for Rs 7,863.63 crore. On average, the 11 projects work out to about Rs 737 crore each, so the latest win is smaller than the typical project secured this year. The quoted charge is not revenue already earned and will be received only after the project is built and commissioned.

Cupid (CUPID)

Cupid’s consolidated net profit more than doubled to Rs 56.2 crore in the September quarter of FY27, against Rs 24.1 crore in the year-ago period. Revenue from operations also increased sharply to Rs 188 crore from Rs 84.4 crore in Q2 FY26.

The profit rise works out to about 133.2 per cent and the revenue rise to about 122.7 per cent, so profit grew slightly faster than sales. Net profit margin improved to about 29.9 per cent from about 28.6 per cent a year ago. Cupid is a Nashik-based maker of male and female condoms and related products. The September quarter figures show a business scaling both sales and profit at a rapid pace.
