27 January: Technical Momentum Shifts Amid Sideways Trend
Escorts Kubota Ltd began the week with a notable shift in its technical momentum, moving from a mildly bullish stance to a sideways trend. On 27 January, the stock closed at Rs.3,475.95, down 0.72% from the previous close, while the Sensex gained 0.50%. Key technical indicators such as MACD and RSI signalled growing uncertainty, with the MACD turning mildly bearish on weekly and monthly charts and RSI hovering near neutral levels. The stock traded within a range of Rs.3,475.00 to Rs.3,636.00, remaining below its 52-week high of Rs.4,171.35 but comfortably above its 52-week low.
This consolidation phase reflected subdued market sentiment and caution among investors, as daily moving averages showed mild bullishness but momentum indicators suggested waning strength. The downgrade of the Mojo Grade to Hold earlier in January added to the cautious outlook, signalling a need for vigilance amid uncertain price direction.

29 January: Intraday Low Amid Price Pressure
The stock faced significant selling pressure on 29 January, closing at Rs.3,291.40, down 5.62% on the day and hitting an intraday low of Rs.3,313.90. This represented a 4.98% drop from the opening price, accompanied by elevated volatility with intraday price swings of 5.36%. Escorts Kubota underperformed its sector, which fell 4.31%, and contrasted with the broader market’s modest gain of 0.22% on the Sensex.
Technical analysis showed the stock trading below all major moving averages, signalling sustained downward momentum. The Mojo Score remained at 50.0 with a Hold rating, reflecting a neutral stance amid the price weakness. The sharp decline highlighted immediate selling pressure and investor caution, exacerbated by the recent downgrade and the stock’s inability to hold key support levels.
29 January: Mildly Bearish Momentum Amid Mixed Technical Signals
Later on 29 January, Escorts Kubota exhibited a subtle shift from sideways to mildly bearish momentum. Despite a small daily gain of 0.12% earlier in the day, technical indicators such as MACD and KST on weekly and monthly charts showed bearish signals, while daily moving averages suggested mild bullishness. The RSI remained neutral, indicating no extreme overbought or oversold conditions.
This complex technical landscape suggested a transitional phase with potential for further downside if selling pressure continued, but also some short-term support from daily averages. The divergence between weekly bearishness and monthly mild bullishness underscored the importance of monitoring key technical levels and volume trends closely.

30 January: Week Closes with Modest Recovery
On the final trading day of the week, Escorts Kubota rebounded to close at Rs.3,380.60, up 2.71% from the previous day’s close. However, this recovery was insufficient to offset the week’s overall decline of 3.44%. The Sensex closed lower by 0.22% on the day but ended the week with a 1.62% gain, highlighting the stock’s relative underperformance.
The week’s price action reflected a volatile environment with mixed technical signals and investor caution. Despite the short-term bounce, the stock remains below key resistance levels and moving averages, suggesting that the broader downtrend and sideways momentum may persist without a clear catalyst.
| Date | Stock Price | Day Change | Sensex | Day Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-01-27 | Rs.3,475.95 | -0.72% | 35,786.84 | +0.50% |
| 2026-01-28 | Rs.3,487.40 | +0.33% | 36,188.16 | +1.12% |

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: Despite the weekly decline, daily moving averages showed mild bullishness, providing some short-term support. The neutral RSI readings suggest the stock is not oversold, leaving room for potential stabilisation. The long-term performance remains robust, with three-year and five-year returns significantly outperforming the Sensex.
Cautionary Signals: The stock underperformed the Sensex by 5.06% during the week, reflecting weaker momentum and investor caution. Technical indicators such as MACD and KST on weekly and monthly charts turned mildly bearish, signalling potential further downside. The stock traded below all major moving averages on 29 January, indicating sustained downward pressure. Elevated intraday volatility and a sharp intraday low on 29 January highlight heightened risk in the near term.
Conclusion
Escorts Kubota Ltd’s performance in the week ending 30 January 2026 was marked by a clear underperformance relative to the broader market, driven by a shift in technical momentum, significant intraday price pressure, and mixed technical signals. While the stock showed some short-term resilience on the final trading day, the overall trend remains cautious with mildly bearish momentum dominating intermediate and longer-term charts.
Investors should remain vigilant, monitoring key support and resistance levels alongside volume trends to assess whether the stock can regain upward momentum or if further consolidation or correction is likely. The Hold rating reflected in the Mojo Grade aligns with this cautious stance, suggesting a wait-and-watch approach amid ongoing market uncertainties.
