Debt and Valuation Considerations
The company’s debt profile remains a concern, with a Debt-Equity ratio of 3.16 times as of the half-year period, indicating a relatively high leverage position. Despite this, Kabra Extrusion Technik Ltd maintains a low Debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.23 times, suggesting a moderate ability to service its debt obligations.
From a valuation standpoint, the stock is considered risky relative to its historical averages. Over the past year, profits have declined by -92.4%, while the stock price has fallen by -58.39%, indicating that earnings deterioration has outpaced the share price decline. This disparity may reflect market apprehension about the company’s earnings sustainability and growth prospects.
Institutional Investor Activity
Institutional investors have reduced their holdings by -0.57% in the previous quarter, collectively holding only 0.45% of the company’s shares. Given their typically rigorous fundamental analysis capabilities, this decline in institutional participation may signal cautious sentiment towards the stock’s outlook.
Comparative Performance and Market Position
In addition to underperforming the Sensex, Kabra Extrusion Technik Ltd has lagged behind the BSE500 index over the last three years, one year, and three months. This consistent underperformance across multiple time frames highlights challenges in both the near and long term relative to broader market benchmarks.

This rating was upgraded from Sell on 29 Sep 2025, reflecting a further deterioration in the company’s fundamentals and market sentiment. The Market Cap Grade stands at 4, indicating a relatively modest market capitalisation within its sector.
The Strong Sell rating is driven by the company’s poor long-term growth trajectory, negative quarterly results, high leverage, and declining institutional interest. These factors collectively contribute to the cautious stance reflected in the stock’s current valuation and technical positioning.
