Wednesday, 21 January 2026: New 52-Week Low and Technical Downgrade
Monarch Networth’s share price declined further to Rs.272.25, a new 52-week low, down 1.10% on the day. This marked the third consecutive day of losses, with an 8.09% drop over this period. The stock remained below all major moving averages, signalling persistent bearish momentum. The Sensex also declined 0.78% to 35,815.26, but Monarch Networth’s sharper fall highlighted relative weakness.
Technical indicators deteriorated, with the stock’s momentum shifting from mildly bearish to outright bearish. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Bollinger Bands on weekly and monthly charts confirmed sustained downward pressure. On-Balance Volume (OBV) readings were mildly bearish, indicating selling pressure outweighed buying interest. The downgrade reflected growing caution amid volatile market conditions.
Thursday, 22 January 2026: Rebound on Strong Quarterly Results
The stock rebounded 4.21% to Rs.288.60, recovering some losses amid positive quarterly earnings news. Monarch Networth reported its highest quarterly profit after tax (PAT) of Rs.45.41 crores and an EPS of Rs.5.73 for the December 2025 quarter. Despite flat revenue growth and margin pressures, the strong bottom-line performance provided a near-term catalyst for the price recovery.
The Sensex also gained 0.76% to 36,088.66, supported by broader market optimism. Monarch Networth’s conservative capital structure, with a debt-equity ratio of 0.01, and robust operating cash flow of Rs.29.75 crores, underpinned confidence in its financial stability despite margin challenges.
Friday, 23 January 2026: Flat Quarterly Performance and Margin Pressure Temper Gains
Monarch Networth closed the week at Rs.281.55, down 2.44% on the day, as investors digested a flat financial trend score despite record PAT and EPS. The company’s financial trend rating declined from 6 to 4, reflecting stalled revenue growth and margin expansion amid a volatile capital markets environment. The Sensex fell 1.33% to 35,609.90, continuing the week’s downward trend.
The stock’s Mojo Score dropped to 40.0 with a downgrade to Sell rating as of 19 January 2026, signalling increased caution. Despite strong long-term returns—over five years, Monarch Networth has gained 1,015.67% compared to the Sensex’s 68.39%—near-term challenges remain evident in price action and financial trends.
