Despite a challenging year-to-date performance, where the stock is down 42.35% compared to the Sensex's 4.49% gain, the recent buying pressure may be attributed to a shift in market sentiment or specific developments within the engineering sector. The stock's microcap status may also contribute to its volatility and responsiveness to market trends.
