Small-cap stock under ₹100 MIC Electronics jumps 5% after this update. Do you own?

Shares of MIC Electronics, which made significant strides last month, came under investors' radar in Monday’s trade, surging 5% to ₹56.50 apiece and snapping a two-day losing streak, following the company’s approval of a fresh registration from the Research Designs and Standards Organization (RDSO).

In a regulatory filing today, the company said it had received a prototype testing result for request ID: 25111, dated July 31, 2024, for item ID: 3100369 from the RDSO, Ministry of Railways.

“The approval has been granted for the microprocessor controller for roof-mounted AC package units for LHB coaches and double-decker coaches,” the company added.

Multibagger returns! Stock jumps over 6800% in five years

After recording a sharp rally in the first half of September, with the stock soaring 78%, MIC Electronics’ shares came under pressure later in the month, giving up most of those gains and ending September with a 20% overall rise.

The profit-booking trend extended into October, with shares down about 3% so far this month. However, despite the recent weakness, the stock continues to trade with massive five-year gains of 6848%.

During this period, the stock rose from ₹0.60 to ₹56.50, delivering multibagger returns. Notably, the stock rallied 150.44% in 2024 and 148% in 2023, underscoring its strong upward trajectory over the past two years.

This massive appreciation in share price has created substantial wealth for investors.

An investor who had invested ₹1 lakh in the stock five years ago and held it till now would have seen the value swell to nearly ₹94 lakhs, showcasing the wealth-creating potential of long-term investing in the right stocks.
