Ashirwad Capital Receives 'Hold' Rating from MarketsMOJO After Positive Results and Bullish Trends

Ashirwad Capital, a microcap finance company, has recently received a 'Hold' rating from MarketsMOJO. This upgrade comes after the company's positive results in December 2023, with its PAT(Q) reaching a record high of Rs 0.73 crore, PBDIT(Q) at Rs 0.78 crore, and PBT LESS OI(Q) at Rs 0.77 crore.
The stock is currently in a bullish range, with technical trends showing improvement from mildly bullish on 6th May 2024. Multiple factors, such as MACD, Bollinger Band, and KST, are also indicating a bullish outlook for the stock.

At a price to book value of 2.6, the stock has a fair valuation with a return on equity (ROE) of 10.9%. However, it is trading at a premium compared to its average historical valuations. Despite this, the stock has generated a return of 43.20% in the past year, with profits rising by 65%. The PEG ratio of the company stands at 0.3.

On the other hand, Ashirwad Capital has weak long-term fundamental strength, with an average ROE of 6.41% and poor growth in operating profit at an annual rate of 7.77%. Additionally, institutional investors have decreased their stake in the company by -0.83% over the previous quarter and currently hold 0% of the company. This could be a cause for concern as institutional investors have better resources and capabilities to analyze a company's fundamentals compared to retail investors.

Overall, while Ashirwad Capital has shown positive results and technical trends, its long-term fundamental strength and institutional investor participation are areas to keep an eye on. MarketsMOJO's 'Hold' rating suggests a neutral stance on the stock, and investors should carefully consider all factors before making any investment decisions.
