09 February 2026: New 52-Week High Signals Momentum
Gayatri Projects Ltd surged to a new 52-week high of Rs.12.87 on 09 Feb 2026, marking a 4.98% increase from the previous close of Rs.12.26. This sharp rise outpaced the Sensex’s 1.04% gain on the day, highlighting strong relative strength. The stock’s price climbed above all key moving averages — 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day — signalling robust technical momentum across short, medium, and long-term horizons.
This milestone capped an impressive 83.59% price appreciation over the past year, dwarfing the Sensex’s 7.89% gain in the same period. Despite some erratic trading days in recent weeks, the stock’s sustained rally reflects growing investor confidence in its near-term prospects within the construction sector.
However, MarketsMOJO’s Mojo Score remained low at 24.0 with a Strong Sell grade as of 02 Feb 2026, underscoring persistent fundamental concerns despite the technical strength.
10 February 2026: Technical Upgrade Amid Financial Struggles
On 10 Feb 2026, MarketsMOJO upgraded Gayatri Projects Ltd’s Mojo Grade from Strong Sell to Sell, reflecting improved technical indicators despite ongoing financial challenges. The Mojo Score rose to 31.0, driven by bullish signals from daily moving averages, weekly RSI, and monthly MACD turning positive. Bollinger Bands also indicated increased upward price volatility.
Nonetheless, the company’s financials remain under pressure. Net sales declined 28.69% to Rs.73.13 crores in the latest quarter, while profitability deteriorated sharply with a PBT loss of Rs.12.88 crores, a 353.52% plunge. Interest expenses surged 127.98% to Rs.11.49 crores over six months, exacerbating leverage concerns. The Debt to EBITDA ratio stands at a high 5.57 times, and the company holds a negative book value and net worth, signalling weak fundamental health.
Additionally, 72.4% of promoter shares are pledged, raising the risk of forced selling in volatile markets. These factors temper the optimism from technical upgrades and highlight the precarious financial position.

11-13 February 2026: Price Consolidation Amid Market Volatility
From 11 to 13 Feb 2026, Gayatri Projects Ltd’s stock price remained steady at Rs.12.87, showing no daily change despite the Sensex experiencing declines of -0.56% and -1.40% on 12 and 13 Feb respectively. This price stability amid broader market weakness indicates resilience and a possible consolidation phase following the earlier rally.
The stock’s ability to hold its 52-week high level during a volatile market environment suggests that technical support remains intact. However, the lack of further upward movement also reflects caution among investors given the company’s ongoing financial difficulties and elevated risk profile.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: Gayatri Projects Ltd’s 4.98% weekly gain and new 52-week high demonstrate strong technical momentum. The upgrade from Strong Sell to Sell by MarketsMOJO reflects improved market sentiment and bullish technical indicators such as daily moving averages, RSI, and MACD. The stock’s outperformance relative to the Sensex (-0.54%) and sector highlights its resilience amid broader market weakness.
Cautionary Factors: Despite technical strength, the company’s financial fundamentals remain weak. Consecutive quarterly losses, declining sales, rising interest expenses, and a high Debt to EBITDA ratio of 5.57 times underscore ongoing operational and leverage risks. The negative book value and high promoter share pledge (72.4%) add to the risk profile, suggesting potential volatility if market conditions deteriorate.
Valuation and Market Context: The stock’s impressive one-year return of 83.59% contrasts sharply with its negative five- and ten-year returns, indicating a recent rally driven more by technical factors than fundamental recovery. The PEG ratio at zero further highlights the disconnect between price appreciation and earnings growth.
Conclusion
Gayatri Projects Ltd’s week was marked by a significant technical rally culminating in a new 52-week high and a Mojo Grade upgrade to Sell. The stock’s 4.98% gain against a declining Sensex reflects strong short-term momentum and market interest. However, persistent financial challenges, including declining revenues, losses, and high leverage, temper the outlook. Investors should consider the balance between technical strength and fundamental risks when assessing the stock’s prospects. The current price consolidation suggests a wait-and-watch phase as the market digests these mixed signals.
