Trading below all key moving averages — including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages — the stock’s technical indicators signal sustained downward momentum.

Long-Term Performance and Valuation Metrics
Over the past year, Epack Durable Ltd has delivered a total return of -50.54%, a stark contrast to the Sensex’s positive 7.93% return over the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.483.95, underscoring the magnitude of the decline to its current low. Additionally, the stock has underperformed the BSE500 index across multiple time frames, including the last three years, one year, and three months.
From a fundamental perspective, the company’s long-term financial health remains under scrutiny. Its average Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) stands at a modest 6.14%, reflecting limited efficiency in generating returns from its capital base. Net sales have grown at an annualised rate of 12.69% over the last five years, while operating profit has increased by 8.76% annually, indicating moderate growth but not at a pace to significantly improve investor sentiment.
Debt servicing capacity is a concern, with a high Debt to EBITDA ratio of 4.51 times, signalling elevated leverage and potential strain on cash flows. Interest expenses have risen by 24.15% over the past nine months, reaching Rs.49.56 crores, further pressuring profitability.
Recent Quarterly Financial Results
The December 2025 quarter results revealed a sharp decline in profitability. Profit Before Tax (PBT) excluding other income stood at Rs.2.27 crores, down 73.6% compared to the average of the previous four quarters. Similarly, Profit After Tax (PAT) was Rs.2.59 crores, a 74.7% decrease relative to the prior four-quarter average. These figures highlight a significant contraction in earnings, contributing to the stock’s downward trajectory.
Promoter confidence appears to be waning, as evidenced by a reduction in promoter shareholding by 0.73% over the previous quarter, bringing their stake down to 47.18%. Such a decrease may be interpreted as a cautious stance on the company’s near-term prospects.

Valuation and Comparative Analysis
Despite the challenges, Epack Durable Ltd’s valuation metrics suggest it is trading at a discount relative to its historical peer group. The company’s Enterprise Value to Capital Employed ratio stands at 1.8, which may be considered attractive in the context of its sector. However, this valuation discount has not translated into positive returns, as the stock’s profits have declined by 9.5% over the past year.
The combination of subdued profitability, elevated leverage, and declining earnings has contributed to the stock’s current standing as a strong sell, as reflected in its Mojo Grade of 14.0, upgraded from a previous Sell rating on 25 Sep 2025. The Market Capitalisation Grade remains low at 3, underscoring concerns about the company’s size and market position.
Overall, Epack Durable Ltd’s stock performance and financial indicators illustrate a company facing multiple headwinds, with its share price reflecting these ongoing pressures.
Sector and Market Environment
The Electronics & Appliances sector, in which Epack Durable Ltd operates, has experienced mixed performance, with some indices such as NIFTY MEDIA and NIFTY REALTY also hitting 52-week lows on the same day. The broader market’s cautious tone, as seen in the Sensex’s recent declines, adds to the challenging environment for stocks like Epack Durable Ltd.
Investors and analysts will continue to monitor the company’s financial results and market developments closely, given the stock’s recent lows and fundamental metrics.
