12 February 2026: Technical Momentum Shift Drives 6.37% Gain

The stock reached its weekly high of ₹257.85 on 12 February, gaining 6.37% from the previous close. This price movement was accompanied by a shift in technical momentum from bearish to mildly bearish, supported by mildly bullish On-Balance Volume (OBV) and a mildly bullish Dow Theory weekly signal. Despite bearish MACD and KST oscillators, the stock’s price action indicated renewed buying interest. The trading range for the day was ₹244.50 to ₹258.25, with the stock comfortably above its 52-week low of ₹209.00 but still well below the 52-week high of ₹373.00, highlighting potential recovery room.

13 February 2026: Profit-Taking Leads to 4.08% Decline

Despite the pullback, the stock ended the week with a strong 10.18% gain, significantly outperforming the Sensex’s 0.54% loss. This correction may represent a healthy consolidation following the prior days’ gains, with investors digesting the recent upgrade and technical developments.

Key Takeaways

Positive Signals: The upgrade to a 'Hold' rating by MarketsMOJO on 11 February reflects improved technical indicators and a more balanced risk profile. The stock’s 10.18% weekly gain significantly outperformed the Sensex’s 0.54% decline, underscoring renewed investor interest. Robust valuation metrics such as a 17.4% ROCE and a PEG ratio of 1 highlight the company’s attractive financial position despite recent market underperformance. The shift in technical momentum to mildly bearish with mildly bullish volume indicators suggests potential for further recovery.

Cautionary Notes: Despite recent gains, the stock remains well below its 52-week high of ₹373.00, indicating considerable volatility and room for price fluctuations. Key momentum indicators such as MACD and KST remain bearish, signalling that downward pressure has not fully abated. The company’s long-term growth remains modest, with operating profit growth at an annualised 15.38% over five years, and limited institutional ownership may constrain liquidity and market enthusiasm. The 4.08% decline on 13 February amid broader market weakness suggests profit-taking and potential near-term consolidation.

Conclusion

DMCC Speciality Chemicals Ltd’s performance in the week ending 13 February 2026 was marked by a strong price rally and a technical upgrade that shifted market sentiment from bearish to cautiously optimistic. The stock’s 10.18% gain against a declining Sensex highlights its relative strength amid mixed sector conditions. While the upgrade to 'Hold' and improved technical indicators provide a foundation for potential recovery, persistent bearish momentum signals and modest long-term growth warrant a prudent approach. Investors should monitor upcoming financial results and sector developments closely to gauge whether the stock can sustain its positive momentum or if further consolidation is likely.
