On 9 March 2026, Mahamaya Steel Industries Ltd’s stock price jumped 4.23% to close at Rs.873.10, outperforming the Sensex which fell 1.91% to 34,557.39. This move followed MarketsMOJO’s upgrade of the stock’s rating from 'Sell' to 'Hold' on 6 March, reflecting improved technical indicators and consistent quarterly earnings growth. The upgrade was supported by bullish daily moving averages and a positive shift in monthly MACD, signalling strengthening momentum.
The company’s half-year profit after tax (PAT) rose impressively by 255.58% to ₹3.75 crores, and return on capital employed (ROCE) improved to 7.68%, underpinning the technical upgrade. Institutional investor participation also increased, adding confidence to the stock’s outlook.

Mar 10-11: Accelerated Gains Amid Technical Momentum
The bullish momentum intensified on 10 March as the stock surged 8.07% to Rs.943.55, while the Sensex gained 1.30%. The following day, 11 March, Mahamaya Steel extended gains by 8.27% to Rs.1,021.55, even as the Sensex declined 1.36%. This eight-session winning streak propelled the stock close to its all-time high, driven by strong volume-backed price advances and positive technical signals such as bullish Bollinger Bands and On-Balance Volume (OBV) trends on weekly and monthly charts.
Despite some short-term caution indicated by weekly MACD and KST oscillators, the overall technical landscape remained supportive. The stock’s ability to maintain levels above key moving averages reinforced investor confidence amid a volatile market environment.

Mar 12: New 52-Week and All-Time Highs Amid Market Weakness
On 12 March, Mahamaya Steel Industries Ltd reached a new 52-week and all-time high intraday price of Rs.1,061.85, despite closing lower at Rs.1,017.70 (-0.38%). This milestone was achieved amid a broadly negative market, with the Sensex falling 0.66% to 34,300.49 and several sector indices hitting 52-week lows. The stock’s ability to rally to record highs in such an environment highlights its relative strength and robust demand.
The stock traded above all major moving averages, signalling sustained bullish momentum. However, some short-term indicators such as weekly MACD and KST showed mild bearishness, suggesting profit-taking or consolidation. Valuation multiples remain elevated, with a trailing P/E ratio of 160x and EV/EBITDA of 73.68x, reflecting high market expectations. Delivery volumes surged, indicating increased investor participation in the rally.
Mar 13: Profit Booking Leads to Modest Decline
The week concluded on 13 March with the stock retreating 2.40% to Rs.993.30, underperforming the Sensex which declined 2.29% to 33,516.43. This pullback followed the recent sharp rally and record highs, reflecting short-term profit booking amid ongoing market volatility. Despite the decline, the stock closed the week with a strong 18.57% gain, significantly outperforming the Sensex’s 4.87% loss.
