Is there more strength left in Paytm shares?

Analysts say Paytm shares still look strong on the technical charts.

Ganesh Dongre, Senior Manager, Anand Rathi said, “However, it may face hurdles in the range of ₹ 710 to ₹ 730 in the near term. Crossing this resistance can take Paytm’s share price to ₹ 800. Therefore, those looking at a medium-term perspective can hold the stock for a target of ₹ 800, maintain a stop loss below the previous day’s close and maintain buy-on-dips on every major decline in Paytm shares.”

At 10:00 am, Paytm shares were trading 7.95% higher at Rs 677.90 on BSE.
