Bharti Airtel Draws Mixed but Largely Bullish Analyst Ratings Amid Q4 Beats, Africa Deal, and Strong Free Cash Flow
Six of seven major brokerages maintain bullish ratings on Bharti Airtel, with target prices ranging from ₹2220 to ₹2450, following Q4 revenue and EBITDA beats driven by strong Africa operations and healthy India mobile growth. The approved share-swap deal to acquire a 16.30% stake in Airtel Africa through 146.80 million shares is broadly viewed as earnings-accretive and structure-simplifying. Strong FY26 free cash flow, a net debt-to-EBITDA decline to 1.20x, ROCE improvement to 16.50%, and a higher dividend of ₹24 per share further underpin the positive sentiment. UBS remains the lone dissenter with a Sell rating at ₹2030, citing weaker Indian ARPUs, higher capex intensity, and a 2.40% equity dilution.
