Intraday Trading Highlights
The stock opened with a notable gap up of 5.48%, signalling strong buying momentum from the outset. Throughout the trading session, Mahindra Logistics exhibited high volatility, with an intraday volatility of 25.07% calculated from the weighted average price. This heightened price movement culminated in the stock reaching its peak intraday level at Rs 332, representing a 12.94% increase from the previous close.
Trading activity reflected sustained interest, as the stock maintained gains above its 5-day, 20-day, and 50-day moving averages, although it remained below the longer-term 100-day and 200-day moving averages. This positioning indicates a short to medium-term bullish trend within a broader context of longer-term consolidation.
Performance Relative to Sector and Market
Mahindra Logistics outperformed the Transport Services sector by 11.52% on the day, a significant margin that underscores its relative strength. The stock’s 1-day gain of 10.34% notably exceeded the Sensex’s 0.70% rise, highlighting its distinct momentum amid a broadly positive market environment.
Over the past two trading days, the stock has recorded consecutive gains, accumulating a 13.18% return. This recent rally contrasts with its longer-term performance, where it has experienced declines over the 3-month (-6.11%), 1-year (-8.63%), 3-year (-30.39%), and 5-year (-32.79%) periods, compared with the Sensex’s positive returns over these intervals.

Market Context and Broader Indices
The broader market environment on 28 Jan 2026 was characterised by a positive trend in the Sensex, which climbed 510.41 points (0.67%) to close at 82,402.77 after a flat opening. The index remains 4.56% below its 52-week high of 86,159.02. Despite trading below its 50-day moving average, the Sensex’s 50DMA remains above the 200DMA, signalling a cautiously optimistic medium-term outlook.
Market gains were led by mega-cap stocks, which contributed significantly to the Sensex’s advance. In this context, Mahindra Logistics’ strong outperformance relative to both the Sensex and its sector highlights its distinct trading dynamics on the day.
Recent Performance Trends
Examining the stock’s recent performance reveals a mixed picture. While the 1-week return stands at a healthy 14.67%, outperforming the Sensex’s 0.63%, the 1-month return is flat at 0.05%, slightly better than the Sensex’s negative 3.07%. However, the stock’s longer-term returns remain subdued, with negative returns over 3, 5, and 10 years, contrasting with the Sensex’s strong gains over the same periods.
This divergence suggests that while Mahindra Logistics has demonstrated short-term strength and resilience, it continues to face headwinds in the longer term relative to the broader market.

Mojo Score and Rating Update
Mahindra Logistics currently holds a Mojo Score of 43.0, reflecting a Sell grade as of 24 Nov 2025, following a downgrade from a previous Hold rating. The Market Cap Grade stands at 3, indicating a mid-tier market capitalisation within its sector. These metrics provide a quantitative backdrop to the stock’s recent price action and volatility.
The downgrade in rating precedes the recent rally, suggesting that the current price surge is occurring despite a cautious outlook from the rating agency. This dynamic may be indicative of short-term trading factors influencing the stock’s performance.
