The share price of IRCTC, or Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation, climbed over ₹5,000 earlier on Thursday. And it will be wrong to say one did not anticipate it.

IRCTC’s performance in the stock market has been quite a stellar one so far. The company’s shares have grown a whopping 610% since its listing exactly two years ago.

If you had invested ₹1,00,000 on its IPO in October 2019, your shares would now be worth ₹7,10,000. A seven fold return in a span of 24 months is great news for an investor.

Even Twitter is so excited about IRCTC’s uphill growth that it has not turned into a meme fest.

While others are trying to take a dig at IRCTC’s products. Well, no complaints there.
