Suggested Trading Strategy
While COALINDIA’s earnings reflect slowing growth, the stock remains attractive due to the high dividend payout. Here’s a balanced approach:
Sell on Rise: The weak earnings growth suggests potential selling pressure. Consider reducing positions if the stock tests upper resistance levels (₹475-₹507).
Dividend Strategy: Muhurat trading on November 1 (Diwali) offers a unique buy opportunity for dividend eligibility through the T+1 settlement system. Entering near support levels around ₹456 could allow for dividend capture by the November 5 settlement.
Conclusion: The focus remains on capturing dividend benefits during Muhurat trading while monitoring for price dips to support levels. Despite lower YoY performance, Coal India’s profitability and dividend yield make it viable for strategic positioning.
