Railway-related stocks plunged as the railway budget failed to enthuse investors. Stocks like BEML, Hind Rectifiers, Stone India, Texmaco and Titagarh Wagons lost between 5-17% over the past week and continued falling after the budget as proposals were not seen having an immediate revenue impact. Analysts said steps announced in the budget would have no immediate benefits for container operators. However, some analysts remained optimistic about the long-term opportunities from proposals like setting up new factories and expanding rail networks through public-private partnerships.
