New 52-Week High on 19 February: Rs.14.89
On 19 February 2026, AVI Polymers Ltd reached a new 52-week high of Rs.14.89, marking the 16th consecutive trading session of gains. The stock rose 4.93% on the day, supported by a surge in volume to 97,780 shares, reflecting strong buying interest. This milestone underscored the stock’s robust rally, which has delivered a 126.27% return over the consecutive gain period.
Despite the broader market’s volatility, with the Sensex declining 1.45% to close at 36,523.88, AVI Polymers maintained its upward momentum, outperforming the benchmark by a significant margin. The stock’s technical position remained strong, trading above all key moving averages, signalling sustained bullish sentiment.
All-Time High and Valuation Update on 20 February
Continuing its impressive run, AVI Polymers Ltd hit an all-time high of Rs.15.63 on 20 February 2026, a 4.97% increase from the previous close. The stock’s volume moderated to 33,667 shares but remained elevated compared to earlier in the week. This marked the 17th consecutive session of gains, with a cumulative return of 137.51% over this period.
Alongside the price milestone, a valuation update signalled a shift from an attractive to a fair valuation grade. The company’s price-to-earnings ratio stood at 13.91, prompting a downgrade in valuation grade despite remaining reasonable relative to peers. The price-to-book value ratio remained elevated at 17.60, reflecting high growth expectations priced in by the market.
Financial metrics such as a return on capital employed of 34.80% and an exceptional return on equity of 126.51% support the company’s premium valuation. The PEG ratio of 0.01 further indicates that the stock trades at a price well below what earnings growth would suggest, leaving room for potential upside if growth materialises.
