  • Watchpoints: Demand softness, EV adoption delays, margin contraction.

Final Thoughts

Sona BLW is a premium auto-component play with strong EV tailwinds, financial health, and strategic value. At ~0.6% allocation, you’re lightly involved. Consider modest scaling towards ~1% if EV traction unfolds. Entry near ₹440–450 is ideal; reassess at ₹550+ as milestones hit.
