Shares of railway-linked companies rallied on 22 Dec, driven by pre-Budget optimism. Jupiter Wagons surged 15% after promoter shareholding increased, while IRCTC rose 1% following fare structure changes effective 26 Dec 2025. RailTel also gained over 4% amid positive market sentiment.

The sector's rebound signals strong investor interest ahead of the Union Budget, typically a catalyst for capital expenditure themes.
