Here’s what’s driving each stock and what to track through the session. 

RailTel Corporation of India (RAILTEL) 

RailTel Corporation of India (RAILTEL) has secured a work order worth Rs 48.98 crore, including taxes, from the Higher Education Department of the Odisha government. The company will develop 83 digital application modules for the department’s digital governance platform, deploy the resources needed for execution and integrate the new modules with the department’s existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. 

The project is due for completion by May 10, 2027, and follows a Rs 48.40 crore order from the Odisha Primary Education Program Authority on October 5. A work order’s value does not translate directly into profit, so investors will track execution timelines and revenue recognition.
