Nagpur Power & Industries Stock Hits 52-Week Low at Rs.80.55

Recent Price Movement and Market Context

On 24 Nov 2025, Nagpur Power & Industries touched an intraday low of Rs.80.55, representing a 6.82% decline during the trading session. This new low comes after the stock has recorded losses over the past three consecutive days, resulting in a cumulative return of -14.34% during this period. Despite this, the stock marginally outperformed its sector on the day by 0.43%, as the Ferro & Silica Manganese sector itself declined by 3.71%.

The stock is currently trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling sustained downward momentum. In contrast, the broader market, represented by the Sensex, has shown resilience, trading 0.16% higher at 85,371.42 and nearing its 52-week high of 85,801.70. The Sensex has also recorded a 2.59% gain over the last three weeks, supported by mega-cap stocks and bullish moving averages.

Financial Performance Overview

Over the past year, Nagpur Power & Industries has generated a return of -35.06%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which has delivered 7.89% during the same period. The stock's 52-week high was Rs.171.05, highlighting the extent of the decline to the current low.

Quarterly financial data reveals further challenges. The company reported a net sales figure of Rs.15.38 crore, which is 6.2% lower compared to the average of the previous four quarters. Profit before depreciation, interest, and taxes (PBDIT) stood at a negative Rs.0.14 crore, marking the lowest level in recent quarters. Additionally, the profit after tax (PAT) was recorded at a loss of Rs.0.99 crore, reflecting a fall of 256.5% relative to the previous four-quarter average.

Long-Term Financial Trends

Examining the company’s longer-term fundamentals, operating profit has shown an annual growth rate of 16.76% over the past five years. However, this growth has not translated into consistent profitability, as indicated by the weak EBIT to interest coverage ratio averaging -1.89, suggesting difficulties in servicing debt obligations.

The return on equity (ROE) stands at 3.2%, which is modest, while the price-to-book value ratio is 1.3, indicating a fair valuation relative to the company’s net assets. Despite this, the stock trades at a discount compared to the average historical valuations of its peers within the ferrous metals sector.

Sector and Peer Comparison

The ferrous metals sector has experienced downward pressure, with the Ferro & Silica Manganese segment declining by 3.71% on the day. Nagpur Power & Industries’ performance has lagged behind both the sector and broader market indices over multiple time frames, including the last three years, one year, and three months.

Majority ownership remains with the company’s promoters, which continues to influence strategic decisions and capital structure.

Summary of Key Metrics

To summarise, Nagpur Power & Industries is currently trading at Rs.80.55, its lowest level in the past 52 weeks, down from a high of Rs.171.05. The stock’s recent three-day decline of 14.34% and year-to-date return of -35.06% contrast sharply with the Sensex’s positive trajectory. Quarterly results show contraction in sales and a negative PBDIT, while the company’s ability to cover interest expenses remains constrained.

While the stock’s valuation metrics suggest a discount relative to peers, the financial indicators reflect a period of subdued performance both in the near and longer term.
