Financial Metrics and Profitability Trends
Alankit's financial results for the quarter ending September 2025 show a profit before tax (PBT) of Rs.-0.73 crore, reflecting a decline of 131.74% compared to the previous period. Notably, non-operating income constitutes 115.05% of the PBT, indicating that the company’s earnings are significantly influenced by income sources outside its core operations.
Over the past year, the company’s profits have fallen by 14.9%, aligning with the stock’s negative return over the same timeframe. The average return on equity (ROE) stands at 7.68%, which is modest relative to typical benchmarks for the sector. Despite this, the stock maintains a price-to-book value ratio of approximately 1, suggesting that the market valuation is in line with the company’s book value and may be considered fair compared to peers’ historical valuations.
Long-Term Performance and Shareholding Structure
Alankit's performance over the longer term has also been subdued, with returns trailing the BSE500 index across one-year, three-year, and three-month periods. This trend reflects persistent challenges in generating growth relative to broader market indices.
The majority shareholding remains with the promoters, indicating a concentrated ownership structure. This factor often plays a role in corporate governance and strategic decision-making but does not directly influence the stock’s recent price movements.

Sector and Market Comparison
Operating within the Diversified Commercial Services sector, Alankit's recent stock performance contrasts with the broader market's upward momentum. While the Sensex and small-cap indices have shown gains, Alankit's stock has not mirrored this trend, reflecting sector-specific or company-specific factors influencing its valuation.
The stock’s day change of 0.73% on the day it hit the 52-week low indicates a slight outperformance relative to its sector, which it outpaced by 0.52%. However, this marginal gain has not been sufficient to reverse the overall downward trend observed over the past year.
Summary of Key Price and Performance Indicators
To summarise, Alankit's stock has reached Rs.10.26, its lowest level in the past 52 weeks, down from a high of Rs.25.59. The stock’s moving averages suggest short-term support but longer-term resistance, with the price below the 20-day to 200-day averages. The company’s financial indicators reveal a decline in profitability and modest returns on equity, while the market valuation remains aligned with book value.
These factors collectively provide a comprehensive view of Alankit's current market standing and recent price movements within the context of the broader Indian equity market.
