26th February 2013 10:18 AM

Most railway stocks plunged on Tuesday ahead of the Railway Budget on Tuesday. Expectations of muted expenditure on railway infrastructure and the assumption that there would be no further fare hikes may have contributed to the fall, according to analysts.All eyes will be on Bansal to see whether he yields to pressure of hiking passenger fares yet again or looks at other measures to mobilise resources to offset the burden of the recent diesel price hike.Hind Rectifiers dropped the most with fall of 6.86%, followed by Stone India (4.21%), Kalindee Rail (4.02%), Kernex Microsystems (3.54%), Titagarh Wagons (3.44%) and Texmaco Rail Engineering 3.08%.
