On 27 Jan 2026, Oswal Agro Mills Ltd’s share price declined by 3.35%, underperforming its sector by 4.95%. The stock has consecutively fallen over the last two sessions, registering a cumulative loss of 3.26% during this period. Trading at Rs.47, the stock is now well below its 52-week high of Rs.110.69, representing a decline of approximately 57.5% from that peak.
The company’s shares are currently trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling sustained bearish momentum. This contrasts with the broader diversified sector, which has gained 2.96% on the same day, highlighting the stock’s relative weakness.
Meanwhile, the Sensex opened lower by 100.91 points but recovered to close 0.19% higher at 81,689.27, supported by gains in mega-cap stocks. However, other indices such as NIFTY MEDIA and NIFTY REALTY also hit new 52-week lows, indicating pockets of weakness across the market.
Financial Performance and Valuation Metrics
Oswal Agro Mills Ltd’s one-year stock performance has been disappointing, with a return of -23.45%, significantly lagging behind the Sensex’s 8.38% gain over the same period. The company’s market capitalisation grade stands at 4, reflecting its mid-tier size within the Trading & Distributors sector.
From a profitability standpoint, the company’s Return on Equity (ROE) is notably low at 4.14%, indicating limited efficiency in generating profits from shareholders’ funds. This figure is considerably below the sector average ROE of 13.1%, which suggests that Oswal Agro Mills is operating at a lower profitability level relative to its peers.
Despite this, the stock trades at a Price to Book Value (P/B) of 0.7, which is a discount compared to historical valuations of its peer group. This valuation discount may reflect market concerns about the company’s growth prospects and financial health.

Shareholding and Market Sentiment
Domestic mutual funds hold a minimal stake of just 0.02% in Oswal Agro Mills Ltd, which may indicate limited institutional confidence or interest at current price levels. Given that domestic mutual funds typically conduct thorough research and due diligence, their small holding could reflect reservations about the company’s business model or valuation.
Over the past year, while the stock price has declined by 23.45%, the company’s profits have risen sharply by 1748.2%. This divergence suggests that the market has not fully priced in the recent profit growth, possibly due to concerns about sustainability or other underlying factors.
Long-Term and Recent Performance Trends
Oswal Agro Mills Ltd has underperformed the BSE500 index over multiple time frames, including the last three years, one year, and three months. This consistent underperformance highlights challenges in maintaining competitive growth and shareholder returns relative to the broader market.
Despite the stock’s recent decline, the company maintains a low average Debt to Equity ratio of zero, indicating a debt-free capital structure. This conservative financial position may provide some stability amid market volatility.
Furthermore, the company has demonstrated strong long-term growth in net sales and operating profit, with annual growth rates of 51.98% and 57.52% respectively. For the nine months ended recently, net sales stood at Rs.117.72 crores, reflecting an extraordinary growth rate of 8,075.00%. Operating cash flow for the year reached a high of Rs.55.87 crores, while the Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) for the half year was recorded at 16.60%, indicating efficient use of capital.
