The IRCTC share price ended the day at Rs 1857.05 on NSE after falling to Rs 1750 when the markets opened today. The stock gained by over Rs 90 or over 5 per cent from the previous closing price on Thursday.  

This is a good opportunity for taking fresh long positions on the IRCTC stock, Jain said. For investors holding the stock, there is no change in the strategy, and he said that they should continue holding it with a long term perspective. 

Jain said that the correction in IRCTC stock has been because of the broader market sentiments and there is nothing negative about this stock at the moment. He said that there was a selling pressure in the markets because of high US bond yields and also fresh wave of Coronavirus Pandemic in the country. 

The bond yields are at a 14-15 month high, triggering stock markets fall, Jain said. 

He said that the IRCTC stock has seen corrections, that should be actually considered healthy. There has also been profit booking in this stock after a strong rally.
