FIIs Pour Billions into Hitachi Energy India Amid Market Dip: Is This the Next Superpower Stock?

• Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) significantly increased their stake in Hitachi Energy India from 5.1% to 9.7% in Q2FY26, despite broader market selling and a Nifty Energy Index decline.
• FIIs bought heavily when Hitachi Energy India's share price dipped from ₹20,000 to ₹18,000, indicating confidence in long-term fundamentals over short-term fluctuations.
• The company specializes in 'grid automation' and 'energy storage and grid management', providing crucial solutions for India's renewable energy transition and smart grid development.
• Hitachi Energy India reported a 406% surge in net profit to ₹264 crore in Q2FY26, with strong order growth across renewable energy, railway, metro, and export segments.
• Despite a high P/E ratio of 112.8x, its role in India's 500 GW renewable plan, including a mega HVDC project with BHEL, positions it as a potential long-term bet, though risks remain.

Why It Matters: FIIs see Hitachi Energy India as a long-term bet on India's energy future despite high valuation.
