Over the past year, Inta Bina skyrocketed some 130%, after hovering at a low of 20 sen in June last year.
having crossed the near-term resistance level of 50 sen.

Excitement over the smallish construction outfit is understandable given the positive news flow.
The company won 5 new jobs year-to-date, valued a total of RM1.1 billion.

Inta Bina’s total outstanding order book is estimated to be around RM1.8 billion, equivalent to 2.9 times of the group’s FY2023 revenue.
Shares of Inta Bina have surged amid a broader rally in the construction sector.
The expected rollout of major infrastructure projects by the government and private companies, ranging from building homes to data centres, has fuelled optimism in the sector.
