Financial Performance Overview
Gujarat Toolroom’s financial results have reflected a challenging period. The company reported a net sales decline of 97.01% in the quarter ending September 2025, contributing to a series of negative quarterly results. The latest quarter marked the third consecutive quarter with negative financial outcomes, following a similar pattern in the March 2025 quarter, which itself came after nine consecutive quarters of negative results.
Profit after tax (PAT) for the recent quarter stood at a loss of Rs.0.35 crore, representing a fall of 101.3% compared to the previous period. Operating cash flow for the year reached a low of Rs.-262.37 crore, while the return on capital employed (ROCE) for the half-year was recorded at 5.41%, among the lowest levels for the company.
Over the past year, Gujarat Toolroom’s stock has generated a return of -59.92%, significantly underperforming the Sensex’s 7.94% gain over the same period. The stock has also lagged the BSE500 index across three years, one year, and three months, indicating sustained underperformance relative to broader market benchmarks.
Long-Term Growth and Valuation Metrics
Despite recent setbacks, Gujarat Toolroom’s long-term growth metrics show some positive aspects. The company’s net sales have expanded at an annualised rate of 1,821.30%, while operating profit has grown by 476.47% over the longer term. The return on equity (ROE) remains high at 52.93%, reflecting management efficiency in generating shareholder returns.
The company maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio of 0.09 times, indicating limited leverage. Its ROCE of 14.5% and an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 0.5 suggest a valuation that is attractive relative to peers’ historical averages. However, profits have declined by 29% over the past year, signalling pressures on the company’s earnings capacity.

The company’s performance over the last year and recent quarters highlights the challenges it faces in regaining momentum within the Plastic Products - Industrial sector.
Summary
Gujarat Toolroom’s stock has reached a 52-week low of Rs.0.79, reflecting a continuation of a downward trend amid subdued financial results and sector underperformance. The stock’s position below all major moving averages and its significant decline over the past year contrast with the broader market’s positive trajectory. While long-term growth indicators and management efficiency remain notable, recent quarterly results and profitability metrics have weighed on the stock’s valuation and market sentiment.
