Gujarat Toolroom Falls to 52-Week Low of Rs.0.81 Amidst Continued Downtrend

The stock’s latest low comes as it trades below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling sustained downward momentum. This contrasts sharply with the broader market trend, where the Sensex closed at 84,978.48, up 0.36% and nearing its own 52-week high of 85,290.06. The Sensex’s positive trajectory is supported by mega-cap stocks and bullish moving averages, with the 50-day moving average positioned above the 200-day moving average.

Over the past year, Gujarat Toolroom’s stock has generated a return of -56.28%, significantly lagging behind the Sensex’s 9.54% gain during the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.3.19, highlighting the extent of the decline to the current low of Rs.0.81.

Financial results for Gujarat Toolroom have shown a challenging trend in recent quarters. The company reported a fall in operating profit by 79.18% in the quarter ending June 2025, reflecting very negative results. This follows two consecutive quarters of negative financial outcomes, including the quarter ending March 2025, which marked the ninth consecutive quarter of negative results.

Quarterly net sales stood at Rs.14.51 crore, down by 94.51%, while profit before tax excluding other income was Rs.4.88 crore, down by 79.39%. The net profit after tax for the quarter was Rs.3.66 crore, reflecting a decline of 83.9%. These figures illustrate the significant contraction in the company’s core financial metrics over recent periods.

Long-term performance also indicates underperformance relative to the BSE500 index across one-year, three-year, and three-month timeframes. This sustained underperformance has contributed to the stock’s current valuation challenges and price decline.

Despite these financial headwinds, Gujarat Toolroom exhibits certain positive attributes in its operational profile. The company reports a high return on equity (ROE) of 52.93%, indicating efficient utilisation of shareholder funds. Additionally, the average debt-to-equity ratio remains low at 0.09 times, suggesting limited leverage and a conservative capital structure.

Net sales have shown a remarkable long-term growth rate, expanding at an annualised rate of 1,821.30%, while operating profit has grown at 476.47% annually over the longer term. The return on capital employed (ROCE) stands at 14.5%, and the enterprise value to capital employed ratio is 0.5, which points to a valuation that is attractive relative to capital utilisation.

The stock currently trades at a discount compared to the average historical valuations of its peers within the Plastic Products - Industrial sector. However, over the past year, profits have declined by 29%, reflecting ongoing pressures on the company’s earnings despite the valuation discount.

Majority shareholding in Gujarat Toolroom is held by non-institutional investors, which may influence the stock’s trading dynamics. The company’s Mojo Score currently stands at 29.0, with a recent adjustment in its evaluation reflected by a change in Mojo Grade from Sell to Strong Sell as of 20 October 2025. The trigger event for the 52-week low was recorded on 19 November 2025.

In summary, Gujarat Toolroom’s stock has reached a significant low point at Rs.0.81, reflecting a combination of weak quarterly financial results, sustained negative earnings trends, and underperformance relative to broader market indices. While certain financial metrics such as ROE and capital structure remain favourable, the stock’s current price level and trading below all major moving averages underscore the challenges faced by the company in recent periods.
