Force Motors stock shoots up more than 400% in 12 months

The stock of Force Motors Ltd. has risen dramatically over the past year. It has gone from Rs. 569.70 on August 4, 2014 to Rs. 2,856.25 on August 3, 2015 - a rise of over 400% over the last 1 year. On Tuesday it touched a record high of Rs. 3,141.85.

Force Motors is now planning to increase the yearly production capacity of the Chennai plant from 20,000 units to 50,000. The company also assembles engines for Mercedes-Benz at its Pune facility.
