Financial Performance Highlights
Nagpur Power & Industries operates within the ferrous metals industry, a sector that has faced challenges reflected in the company’s recent financial results. The latest quarterly figures reveal a net sales figure of Rs.15.38 crores, which is 6.2% lower than the average of the previous four quarters. The company reported a PBDIT of Rs.-0.14 crores, marking the lowest level in recent quarters, while the PAT stood at Rs.-0.99 crores, a decline of 256.5% compared to the previous four-quarter average.
These figures highlight a contraction in profitability and sales, contributing to the stock’s subdued performance. Over the past year, Nagpur Power & Industries has generated a return of -35.06%, significantly lagging behind the Sensex’s 7.89% gain during the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.171.05, illustrating the extent of the decline from its peak.

Long-Term and Sectoral Considerations
Over the last five years, the company’s operating profit has shown an annual growth rate of 16.76%, which is modest within the ferrous metals sector. However, the company’s ability to service its debt remains constrained, with an average EBIT to interest ratio of -1.89, indicating that earnings before interest and taxes have been insufficient to cover interest expenses.
Return on equity (ROE) stands at 3.2%, suggesting a fair valuation relative to the company’s book value, which is reflected in a price-to-book ratio of 1.3. Despite this, the stock is trading at a discount compared to the average historical valuations of its peers, signalling market caution.
In terms of shareholder structure, promoters hold the majority stake, which remains a constant factor amid the stock’s price movements.

Comparative Performance and Market Position
When compared to the broader BSE500 index, Nagpur Power & Industries has underperformed over multiple time frames including the last three years, one year, and three months. This underperformance is consistent with the company’s financial results and the downward trend in its stock price.
The ferrous metals sector itself has experienced volatility, with the Ferro & Silica Manganese segment declining by 3.71% on the day Nagpur Power & Industries hit its 52-week low. This sectoral pressure adds to the challenges faced by the company in regaining upward momentum.
Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Nagpur Power & Industries’ stock price has reached Rs.80.55, its lowest level in the past year, following a series of declines over recent sessions. The company’s quarterly financials show contraction in sales and profitability, with net sales at Rs.15.38 crores and a net loss of Rs.0.99 crores. The stock trades below all major moving averages, reflecting a broad-based weakness in price trends. Meanwhile, the broader market and Sensex continue to show resilience, trading near 52-week highs.
These factors collectively illustrate the current challenges faced by Nagpur Power & Industries within the ferrous metals sector and the wider market environment.
