LG Electronics Share Price Target 2026: With the summer season approaching, electronic and consumer appliance stocks are beginning to attract renewed investor interest.

One such stock gaining attention is LG Electronics India, after global brokerage Morgan Stanley reiterated a bullish outlook on the company.

LG Electronics India operates in the household appliances and consumer electronics sector, offering products such as air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and televisions.

Morgan Stanley believes that the stock is expected to outperform its sector and sees an upside of nearly 12.5 per cent.

Here's what the brokerage has to say about the household appliances stock.

Brokerage View on LG Electronics

Morgan Stanley has maintained an "Overweight" rating on LG Electronics India, with an unchanged target price of Rs 1,726.

The brokerage noted that demand for air conditioners is picking up in North and West India, while the summer season in South India has been delayed by about 7-10 days.

The brokerage also flagged that television demand is being supported by ongoing cricket events, and categories such as refrigerators and washing machines are witnessing year-on-year improvement in demand.

Morgan Stanley further stated that room AC growth is expected to strengthen in the fourth quarter, and the company is currently evaluating potential price hikes due to rising commodity costs.

In the long term, Morgan Stanley expects the AC segment to grow at a double-digit CAGR.

Additionally, LG Electronics India plans to expand capacity, with its Sri City AC manufacturing facility expected to become operational by October 2026, while AC compressor capacity expansion is projected to be completed by March 2027.
