After the run-up, analysts believe all positives may have already been captured in the price now. Client concentration risk, with Signify Innovations India Limited contributing over 70 percent to the overall revenue, should be watched out for, they added.

Astha Jain, Research Analyst, Hem Securities, said investors should wait for the prices to dip.
