Chemtech Industrial Valves Ltd Falls to 52-Week Low of Rs.68

Stock Price Movement and Market Context

On 30 Jan 2026, Chemtech Industrial Valves Ltd’s share price touched Rs.68, the lowest level recorded in the past year. This represents a sharp fall from its 52-week high of Rs.218, highlighting a substantial depreciation of 68.8% from the peak. The stock has been on a downward trajectory for the last two consecutive trading sessions, delivering a cumulative return of -5.47% during this period.

In comparison, the Sensex opened lower at 81,947.31 points, down by 619.06 points (-0.75%), and was trading at 82,052.27 points (-0.62%) at the time of reporting. While the Sensex itself is trading below its 50-day moving average, the 50DMA remains above the 200DMA, indicating mixed signals for the broader market. The BSE500 index has generated a positive return of 7.78% over the past year, contrasting with Chemtech’s significant underperformance.

Chemtech Industrial Valves Ltd’s stock has underperformed its sector as well, lagging the Industrial Manufacturing sector by 0.36% on the day. The stock is trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling sustained bearish momentum.

Financial Performance and Valuation Metrics

The company’s quarterly profit before tax (PBT) has declined sharply to Rs.0.38 crore, a drop of 79.89% compared to the previous quarter. Similarly, the profit after tax (PAT) fell by 21.2% to Rs.1.23 crore. Net sales for the quarter were reported at Rs.5.10 crore, marking the lowest quarterly sales figure in recent periods.

Despite these declines, the company’s operating profit has shown a healthy long-term growth rate, expanding at an annualised rate of 34.53%. However, this growth has not translated into improved bottom-line results in the short term.

Return on equity (ROE) stands at 7.5%, while the stock’s price-to-book value ratio is 1.3, indicating a relatively expensive valuation compared to its earnings generation capacity. The PEG ratio is notably high at 6.4, suggesting that the stock’s price growth has outpaced earnings growth significantly over the past year.

Over the last 12 months, Chemtech Industrial Valves Ltd has generated a negative return of -58.60%, starkly underperforming the Sensex’s positive return of 6.91% during the same period. This divergence highlights the stock’s relative weakness within the broader market context.

Shareholding and Market Sentiment

The majority of the company’s shares are held by non-institutional investors, which may contribute to increased volatility and less stable trading patterns. The stock’s Mojo Score currently stands at 23.0, with a Mojo Grade of Strong Sell, upgraded from a previous Sell rating on 26 Sep 2025. The market capitalisation grade is rated 4, reflecting its micro-cap status within the Industrial Manufacturing sector.

Comparative Performance and Sector Overview

Within the Industrial Manufacturing sector, Chemtech Industrial Valves Ltd’s performance has been notably subdued. While the sector has experienced moderate gains, the stock’s steep decline and valuation metrics place it at a disadvantage relative to peers. The stock’s trading discount compared to historical peer valuations suggests a cautious market stance.

Despite the recent price weakness, the company’s long-term operating profit growth rate of 34.53% indicates underlying business resilience. However, this has yet to be reflected in consistent profitability or share price appreciation over the past year.

The stock’s current trading below all major moving averages further emphasises the prevailing downward momentum, with no immediate technical support levels evident near the current price.
