New Delhi: After receiving buy ratings from all the top global and domestic brokerage and research firms, Paytm stock price has surpassed the target prices pegged by Morgan Stanley and YES Securities, while is just inches away from the targets set by Bank of America, CLSA, and JM Financial Services.
In a span of four trading days, Paytm share price has rallied more than 36 per cent, reclaiming the 700-mark.
