Apollo Micro Systems shares: Defence stock up 60% in 2026, soars 8% in Q2 rally - Key levels to watch next
A quarterly results development with market-wide reach.
· LiveMint Markets
Apollo Micro Systems shares rose 8.5% on Tuesday after strong September-quarter results. Net profit increased 55.6% year on year to ₹48.4 crore, revenue grew 72.2% to ₹388 crore, and the order book reached a record ₹1,765 crore.
The analysis
This is an Order book / contract win event. Order inflow is the only forward-looking number most capital-goods and infrastructure companies disclose. What matters is execution pace and margin on the book, not the headline value.
Why it matters
- Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
- Defence orders carry long execution tails and policy tailwinds, which the market values for their visibility.
Market context
- Sectors in the story: Defence & Aerospace.
