Shareholders in TBO Tek Limited (NSE:TBOTEK) may be thrilled to learn that the analysts have just delivered a major upgrade to their near-term forecasts. The consensus estimated revenue numbers rose, with their view now clearly much more bullish on the company's business prospects. Investors have been pretty optimistic on TBO Tek too, with the stock up 16% to ₹1,578 over the past week. We'll be curious to see if these new estimates convince the market to lift the stock price higher still.
After the upgrade, the eight analysts covering TBO Tek are now predicting revenues of ₹25b in 2026. If met, this would reflect a sizeable 35% improvement in sales compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to expand 11% to ₹24.31. Prior to this update, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of ₹21b and earnings per share (EPS) of ₹24.16 in 2026. It seems analyst sentiment has certainly become more bullish on revenues, even though they haven't changed their view on earnings per share.

The consensus price target increased 12% to ₹1,769, with an improved revenue forecast carrying the promise of a more valuable business, in time.
Another way we can view these estimates is in the context of the bigger picture, such as how the forecasts stack up against past performance, and whether forecasts are more or less bullish relative to other companies in the industry. The analysts are definitely expecting TBO Tek's growth to accelerate, with the forecast 49% annualised growth to the end of 2026 ranking favourably alongside historical growth of 24% per annum over the past year. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in a similar industry are forecast to grow their revenue at 19% per year. It seems obvious that, while the growth outlook is brighter than the recent past, the analysts also expect TBO Tek to grow faster than the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most obvious conclusion from this consensus update is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with analysts holding earnings per share steady, in line with previous estimates. Fortunately, analysts also upgraded their revenue estimates, and our data indicates sales are expected to perform better than the wider market. There was also a nice increase in the price target, with analysts apparently feeling that the intrinsic value of the business is improving. Given that analysts appear to be expecting substantial improvement in the sales pipeline, now could be the right time to take another look at TBO Tek.
