Key support levels lie between ₹1,880 – ₹1,900 and then at ₹1,720 – ₹1,750, according to the analyst
Indian telecom giant Bharti Airtel is expected to post strong June quarter (Q1FY26) results later in the day. According to street estimates, Airtel could see a 25% – 28% jump in revenue to ₹48,250 – ₹48,900 crore, while net profit is expected to surge 55% – 60% to ₹7,120 – ₹7,690 crore.
Continued subscriber additions and growth in average revenue per user (ARPU) are set to boost the topline.
Technical Outlook
From a technical perspective, the stock has bounced back after a short-lived correction and is currently consolidating just above the key ₹1,900 support zone, noted SEBI-registered analyst Rohit Mehta.
The broader structure remains bullish, and if the stock holds above the support, it could potentially move toward the all-time high of ₹2,028, Mehta said.
Key support levels lie between ₹1,880 – ₹1,900 and then at ₹1,720 – ₹1,750, the analyst added.
Fundamental Watch
The company remains fundamentally strong with a 5-year profit CAGR of 25.4% and a healthy dividend payout ratio of 38.8%. However, Mehta believes that the valuations are steep, with the stock trading at 9.6 times its book value.
Last quarter, sales rose 27.3%, while profit before tax soared 245%. However, its sequential declines reflected some margin pressure or higher costs.
Investors will also be closely watching management commentary, especially on ARPU trends and 5G monetization, Mehta said.
