The bank said that volume recovery due to high base of hydro and nuclear energy and low availability of low-cost energy would bring back operating leverage for the company.

The research house has reduced target price to Rs 185 from Rs 190 to factor rising receivables.

At 11:27 a.m, shares of NTPC were up 1.19 percent at Rs 161.60.
