Financial Performance and Profitability Trends
AWL Agri Business Ltd’s financial results have shown signs of strain in recent periods. The company reported a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs. 532.15 crore for the latest six months, reflecting a decline of 26.25% compared to previous periods. Similarly, Profit Before Tax excluding Other Income (PBT less OI) for the quarter stood at Rs. 257.11 crore, down 11.2% relative to the average of the preceding four quarters.
Operating profit growth has been modest over the long term, with an annualised increase of just 4.67% over the last five years. This subdued growth rate has contributed to the stock’s current valuation challenges and market sentiment.
Cash and cash equivalents at the half-year mark were reported at Rs. 1,641.59 crore, the lowest level recorded in recent periods, which may impact the company’s liquidity position.
Shareholding and Promoter Activity
Promoter confidence appears to be waning, as evidenced by a 7% reduction in promoter stake over the previous quarter. Currently, promoters hold 56.94% of the company’s shares. Such a decrease in promoter holding can be interpreted as a cautious stance regarding the company’s near-term prospects.
Relative Performance and Market Positioning
AWL Agri Business Ltd has consistently underperformed against benchmark indices and peer groups. Over the last three years, the stock has lagged the BSE500 index in each annual period. The one-year return of -17.05% further emphasises this trend of underperformance.
Despite these challenges, the company maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio of 0.03 times, indicating limited leverage. Return on Equity (ROE) stands at 10.9%, which is a moderate level of profitability relative to the sector.
The stock’s Price to Book Value ratio is 2.7, suggesting that it is trading at a discount compared to its peers’ historical valuations. However, profits have declined by 19.5% over the past year, reflecting pressures on the company’s earnings base.

Mojo Score and Rating Update
AWL Agri Business Ltd currently holds a Mojo Score of 28.0, which corresponds to a Strong Sell rating. This represents a downgrade from its previous Sell grade, effective from 27 Nov 2025. The company’s market capitalisation grade is rated at 3, reflecting its mid-cap status within the edible oil sector.
The downgrade to Strong Sell is driven by the combination of declining profitability, reduced promoter stake, and consistent underperformance relative to benchmarks and peers.
