13 February 2026: Continued Downtrend and Bearish Technical Momentum
The downward trend intensified on 13 February, with DLF Ltd. closing at Rs.626.45, down 3.87% for the day and 5.59% for the week. The stock hit an intraday low of Rs.627, reflecting a 3.79% drop from the previous close. This decline outpaced the Realty sector’s fall of 2.64% and the Sensex’s 1.40% drop to 36,532.48. Trading volume surged to 122,259 shares, indicating strong selling interest. The stock now trades below all major moving averages – 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day – signalling sustained bearish momentum.
Technical indicators corroborate this negative outlook. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is bearish on the weekly chart, while the Bollinger Bands suggest increased volatility with a downward bias. The Know Sure Thing (KST) indicator also remains bearish weekly, though Dow Theory offers a mildly bullish weekly signal, hinting at possible short-term support. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains neutral, indicating no immediate oversold conditions but leaving room for further downside or consolidation.
Despite the short-term weakness, DLF Ltd. has demonstrated strong long-term performance, with three-year and five-year returns of 74.96% and 100.90% respectively, significantly outperforming the Sensex. However, the current Mojo Score of 30.0 and a Sell grade reflect caution amid the recent price declines and technical deterioration.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: The week began with modest gains, with DLF Ltd. outperforming the Sensex on 9 February and maintaining stability through 11 February. The stock’s long-term returns remain robust, with three-year and five-year gains well above the benchmark index, underscoring its historical growth potential.
Cautionary Signals: The sharp declines on 12 and 13 February, including intraday lows of Rs.652 and Rs.627 respectively, highlight immediate selling pressure and a shift in momentum. The stock’s fall below all major moving averages and bearish technical indicators such as MACD and KST suggest sustained downward momentum. The Mojo Score of 30.0 and Sell grade reinforce a cautious stance. Additionally, the stock’s underperformance relative to both the Realty sector and the Sensex during the week signals sector-specific and stock-specific challenges.
Conclusion
DLF Ltd.’s week was marked by a clear shift from early optimism to pronounced weakness, culminating in a 5.59% weekly decline that outpaced the Sensex’s 0.54% fall. The stock’s technical momentum has turned bearish, with multiple indicators signalling further downside risk in the near term. While the company’s long-term performance remains strong, the current environment characterised by sectoral pressures and technical deterioration warrants a cautious approach. Investors should monitor key support levels around Rs.650 and Rs.587, alongside broader market developments, to gauge potential stabilisation or further declines.
