Stock Price Movement and Market Context
The stock recorded an intraday low of Rs 55.72, down 3.23% on the day, extending its losing streak to four consecutive sessions. Over this period, Gujarat Poly Electronics Ltd has declined by 11.92%, underperforming the Other Electrical Equipment sector by 2.67% today. The current price is substantially below its 52-week high of Rs 111.80, representing a drop of over 50% from that peak.
Technical indicators show the stock trading below all key moving averages – 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day – signalling persistent bearish momentum. This contrasts with the broader market, where the Sensex opened slightly lower at 84,600.99 points, down 0.11%, and is currently trading near 84,681.41 points, just 1.74% shy of its 52-week high of 86,159.02. The Sensex itself is positioned below its 50-day moving average but maintains a positive trend with the 50DMA above the 200DMA.
Financial Performance and Fundamental Assessment
Gujarat Poly Electronics Ltd’s financial metrics have contributed to the subdued market sentiment. The company reported flat quarterly results for September 2025, with a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs 0.42 crore, reflecting a sharp decline of 62.3% compared to the previous four-quarter average. Operating cash flow for the year was negative at Rs -0.07 crore, while quarterly PBDIT stood at Rs 0.36 crore, marking the lowest level in recent periods.
Over the last five years, the company has achieved a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.33% in operating profits, which is modest but insufficient to offset other financial weaknesses. The ability to service debt remains constrained, with an average EBIT to interest coverage ratio of 1.43, indicating limited buffer to meet interest obligations comfortably.

Long-Term and Relative Performance
The stock’s one-year performance has been notably weak, delivering a negative return of 41.95%, in stark contrast to the Sensex’s positive 8.22% gain over the same period. This underperformance extends to the medium term as well, with Gujarat Poly Electronics Ltd lagging behind the BSE500 index over the last three years, one year, and three months.
Despite the share price decline, the company’s profits have risen by 98.2% over the past year, resulting in a low Price/Earnings to Growth (PEG) ratio of 0.1. This suggests that while earnings growth has been strong, it has not translated into share price appreciation, possibly due to other concerns weighing on investor sentiment.
Valuation and Capital Efficiency
The company’s Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) stands at 6.6%, indicating moderate capital efficiency. Its enterprise value to capital employed ratio is 2.5, which is considered fair and suggests the stock is trading at a discount relative to its peers’ historical valuations. However, these valuation metrics have not been sufficient to counterbalance the broader negative trends in the stock’s performance.
Promoters remain the majority shareholders, maintaining significant control over the company’s strategic direction.

Mojo Score and Market Sentiment
Gujarat Poly Electronics Ltd currently holds a Mojo Score of 20.0, categorised as a Strong Sell, an upgrade from its previous Sell rating as of 6 October 2025. This reflects a cautious stance based on the company’s fundamental and market indicators. The market capitalisation grade is rated 4, indicating a relatively small market cap within its sector.
The stock’s recent price action and fundamental data suggest that it remains under pressure, with limited near-term momentum. The combination of weak debt servicing capacity, subdued profitability metrics, and sustained price declines have contributed to the current valuation and rating.
Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Gujarat Poly Electronics Ltd’s stock has declined to Rs 55.72, its lowest level in 52 weeks, following a 41.95% drop over the past year. The company’s earnings growth contrasts with its share price performance, while valuation metrics indicate a discount relative to peers. The stock’s technical indicators remain bearish, and the company’s financial ratios highlight areas of concern, particularly in interest coverage and cash flow generation.
Investors and market participants will continue to monitor the stock’s performance in relation to sector trends and broader market movements, as well as any updates on the company’s financial health and strategic initiatives.
