Today's news highlights a significant surge in Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) shares. On June 6, 2024, BHEL shares rose by almost 6%, hitting a new 52-week high of ₹205.

Recent trends show that BHEL shares have experienced substantial growth over the past year. The stock has yielded impressive returns of over 150%, far outpacing the Nifty's 19% gain during the same period.

Additionally, BHEL has seen a remarkable fourfold increase in its share price within less than a year, rising from a 52-week low of ₹77.30 to its recent high.
