Long-Term Performance and Financial Indicators
Over the past year, Bajaj Electricals has recorded a total return of -39.19%, a stark contrast to the Sensex’s 4.47% gain during the same period. This underperformance extends beyond the last year, with the stock consistently lagging behind the BSE500 index in each of the previous three annual periods.
The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.862, highlighting the extent of the decline to the current low of Rs.476. This represents a drop of approximately 44.7% from its peak price within the year.
Examining the company’s financial metrics over the last five years reveals modest growth in net sales at an annual rate of 1.40%, while operating profit has shown a similarly restrained rate of 2.15%. These figures suggest limited expansion in core business operations over the medium term.
Recent financial results for the half-year period ending September 2025 show operating cash flow at Rs.346.80 crores, the lowest recorded in recent years. Profit after tax (PAT) for the latest six months stands at Rs.14.77 crores, reflecting a contraction of 63.99% compared to prior periods. Return on capital employed (ROCE) for the half-year is at 7.58%, also at a low point.
The company’s return on equity (ROE) is measured at 5.2%, while the price-to-book value ratio is 3.2. This valuation is considered relatively expensive when compared to the historical averages of its peers, although the current stock price trades at a discount relative to those peer valuations.
Balance Sheet and Shareholding Structure
Bajaj Electricals maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio of 0.05 times, indicating a conservative approach to leverage and a relatively strong balance sheet position. This low gearing level may provide some financial flexibility despite the subdued earnings performance.
Institutional investors hold a significant stake in the company, accounting for 23.62% of the shareholding. These investors typically possess greater resources and analytical capabilities to assess company fundamentals, which may influence trading patterns and stock valuation.

Sector and Industry Positioning
Bajaj Electricals operates within the Electronics & Appliances industry and sector, a space characterised by competitive dynamics and evolving consumer preferences. The company’s recent stock performance contrasts with the broader sector trends, where some peers have demonstrated more stable or positive price movements.
The stock’s current trading below all key moving averages suggests that market participants are pricing in ongoing challenges relative to sector peers. This technical positioning often reflects a cautious market sentiment towards the company’s near-term prospects.
Despite the subdued price action, the company’s low leverage and institutional backing remain notable features of its financial profile.
Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Bajaj Electricals’ stock has reached Rs.476, its lowest level in 52 weeks, following a series of declines over recent sessions. The stock’s one-year return of -39.19% contrasts with the Sensex’s positive 4.47% return, underscoring its relative underperformance. Financial indicators reveal modest sales growth, reduced profitability, and low capital returns, while balance sheet metrics show minimal debt and significant institutional ownership.
These factors collectively provide a comprehensive view of the stock’s current standing within the market and its sector.
