The stock's recent performance contrasts with the broader market, where the Sensex opened flat and later traded positively, gaining 0.1% to reach 84,753.71 points. The Sensex remains close to its 52-week high of 85,290.06, trading above its 50-day moving average, which itself is positioned above the 200-day moving average, signalling a generally bullish market environment. Mega-cap stocks have been leading this market advance, while Man Infraconstruction has underperformed its sector by 1.66% today.
Man Infraconstruction’s share price has been trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages. This persistent weakness in price levels highlights the stock’s current challenges within the construction industry segment.

Over the last year, Man Infraconstruction has generated a return of -29.38%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which posted a positive return of 9.25% over the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.262.50, indicating a substantial decline from its peak price. This performance gap is further emphasised when compared to the BSE500 index, which recorded a 7.83% return in the past year, underscoring the stock’s relative underperformance within the broader market.
Financial metrics reveal several areas of concern. The company’s profit before tax (PBT) for the quarter ending September 2025 stood at Rs.39.58 crores, reflecting a decline of 30.5% compared to the average of the previous four quarters. Operating cash flow for the year is reported at Rs.132.99 crores, marking the lowest level recorded. Additionally, the return on capital employed (ROCE) for the half-year period is at 17.82%, which is the lowest in recent assessments.
Valuation metrics indicate that Man Infraconstruction carries a price-to-book value of 2.4, which is considered relatively expensive when viewed alongside its peers’ historical averages. The company’s return on equity (ROE) is noted at 12.4%, while management efficiency is highlighted by a higher ROE figure of 18.78% in other assessments. The company maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio of zero, indicating minimal leverage on its balance sheet.
Net sales have exhibited a compound annual growth rate of 30.72%, with operating profit growing at an annual rate of 97.23%, reflecting healthy long-term growth trends despite recent price pressures. The majority shareholding remains with promoters, maintaining stable ownership structure.

Despite the recent price decline and the stock’s position at its 52-week low, Man Infraconstruction’s fundamentals show a mixed picture. While profitability metrics such as PBT and operating cash flow have shown lower figures in recent periods, the company’s sales and operating profit growth rates remain robust. The stock’s valuation relative to peers and its trading below all major moving averages reflect the market’s cautious stance.
In comparison, the Sensex’s positive momentum and proximity to its 52-week high illustrate a divergence between Man Infraconstruction’s stock performance and the broader market trend. This divergence is further emphasised by the stock’s underperformance relative to its sector and the overall market indices over the past year.
Man Infraconstruction’s current market capitalisation grade is rated at 3, with a Mojo Score of 28.0 and a recent adjustment in evaluation reflected by a change in Mojo Grade from Sell to Strong Sell as of 1 September 2025. The trigger for the latest evaluation adjustment was the stock hitting its 52-week low on 19 November 2025.
Overall, the stock’s recent price action and financial data provide a comprehensive view of its current standing within the construction sector. The combination of valuation, profitability, and price trends offers a factual basis for understanding the stock’s position at this significant 52-week low.
