Stock Price Movement and Market Context
On 17 Feb 2026, Allcargo Logistics Ltd’s share price reached Rs.8.88, representing a fresh low for the year and the lowest level ever recorded for the stock. This price point comes after a consecutive five-day decline, during which the stock has lost approximately 10.77% in value. The day’s performance saw the stock underperform its Transport Services sector by 0.72%, continuing a pattern of relative weakness.
The stock is currently trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling a persistent bearish trend. This contrasts with the broader market, where the Sensex opened flat but gained marginally to trade at 83,291.04, just 3.44% shy of its 52-week high of 86,159.02. The Sensex’s 50-day moving average remains above its 200-day average, indicating a generally positive market environment that Allcargo Logistics has not mirrored.
Financial Performance and Growth Trends
Over the past year, Allcargo Logistics Ltd has delivered a total return of -72.51%, starkly underperforming the Sensex’s 9.58% gain. The company’s 52-week high was Rs.38.37, highlighting the extent of the decline. The long-term financial trajectory has been challenging, with net sales shrinking at an annualised rate of -9.43% over the last five years. Operating profit has contracted even more sharply, declining by 45.39% annually during the same period.
Recent quarterly results have been negative for three consecutive quarters, with the latest nine-month profit after tax (PAT) at Rs.6.00 crores, down 61.90%. Quarterly net sales have also fallen significantly, registering Rs.516.00 crores, a 62.5% drop compared to the average of the previous four quarters. Cash and cash equivalents at the half-year mark stood at Rs.138.00 crores, the lowest level recorded, indicating tighter liquidity conditions.

Promoter Stake and Market Confidence
Promoter confidence appears to be waning, with a notable reduction in their shareholding by 22.79% over the previous quarter. Currently, promoters hold 40.49% of the company’s equity. Such a decrease in promoter stake often signals a cautious outlook on the company’s near-term prospects.
Consistent underperformance against benchmarks has been a feature of Allcargo Logistics’ recent history. The stock has lagged the BSE500 index in each of the last three annual periods, compounding the negative sentiment. This trend is reflected in the company’s Mojo Score of 28.0 and a Mojo Grade of Strong Sell, upgraded from Sell on 16 Feb 2026, underscoring the market’s cautious stance.
Valuation and Financial Ratios
Despite the challenges, Allcargo Logistics maintains a relatively low average debt-to-equity ratio of 0.46 times, which is modest compared to many peers in the Transport Services sector. The company’s return on capital employed (ROCE) stands at 1.4%, and it carries an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 1.3, suggesting an attractive valuation on a relative basis.
However, these valuation metrics have not translated into positive returns, as the stock’s price has declined sharply. Interestingly, while the stock price has fallen by over 70% in the past year, reported profits have risen by 39%, indicating a disconnect between earnings performance and market valuation.

Sector and Market Comparison
Within the Transport Services sector, Allcargo Logistics’ performance has been notably weaker than peers and the broader market. The Sensex’s modest gains and proximity to its 52-week high contrast sharply with the stock’s steep decline. Mega-cap stocks have led the market’s positive momentum, while micro-cap and smaller transport services companies like Allcargo have struggled to maintain investor confidence.
The company’s market capitalisation grade stands at 4, reflecting its relatively small size and the challenges associated with liquidity and investor attention in this segment.
