Technical Momentum Shifts and Indicator Analysis
The stock of Responsive Industries Ltd (Stock ID: 728631) currently trades at ₹189.90, down from the previous close of ₹193.60, reflecting a day decline of 1.91%. The 52-week trading range spans from ₹161.00 to ₹251.00, indicating significant volatility over the past year. Recent technical assessments reveal a shift in momentum, with the overall trend now classified as bearish, a downgrade from the earlier mildly bearish outlook.
Examining the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator, both weekly and monthly charts confirm bearish momentum. The MACD line remains below the signal line, suggesting sustained selling pressure. This aligns with the daily moving averages, which also indicate a bearish trend, as the stock price remains below key moving averages such as the 50-day and 200-day lines.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI), however, remains neutral on both weekly and monthly timeframes, offering no clear signal of oversold or overbought conditions. This lack of directional RSI momentum suggests that while the stock is under pressure, it has not yet reached extreme valuation levels that might prompt a technical rebound.
Bollinger Bands analysis further supports the bearish narrative. On the weekly chart, the bands have widened with the price gravitating towards the lower band, signalling increased volatility and downward pressure. The monthly Bollinger Bands remain mildly bearish, indicating a longer-term cautious outlook.
Additional momentum indicators such as the Know Sure Thing (KST) oscillator reinforce the bearish stance on both weekly and monthly scales. Conversely, Dow Theory and On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicators show no definitive trend or volume confirmation, suggesting that the current price movements lack strong volume support to reverse the downtrend.

Comparative Performance and Market Context
Responsive Industries Ltd’s recent price performance contrasts sharply with broader market indices. Year-to-date, the stock has declined by 5.03%, while the Sensex has gained 1.16%. Over the past year, the stock has underperformed significantly, falling 15.00% compared to the Sensex’s robust 10.41% gain. This divergence highlights sector-specific or company-specific challenges impacting investor sentiment.
Longer-term returns present a more nuanced picture. Over three years, Responsive Industries has delivered a 55.02% return, outperforming the Sensex’s 38.81% gain. However, over five and ten years, the stock’s returns of 7.99% and 100.53% respectively lag behind the Sensex’s 63.46% and 267.00% returns, indicating that recent underperformance has eroded some of the earlier gains.
Market capitalisation metrics also reflect the stock’s current standing, with a Market Cap Grade of 3, suggesting a mid-tier valuation relative to peers. The recent downgrade in the Mojo Grade from Sell to Strong Sell on 5 January 2026, with a current Mojo Score of 23.0, underscores the deteriorating technical and fundamental outlook as assessed by MarketsMOJO’s proprietary rating system.
Implications for Investors and Trading Strategies
The prevailing bearish technical signals suggest that investors should exercise caution with Responsive Industries Ltd. The convergence of negative MACD, moving averages, and Bollinger Bands points to sustained downward momentum. The absence of strong volume confirmation and neutral RSI readings imply that while the stock is not yet oversold, the risk of further declines remains elevated.
Traders may consider tightening stop-loss levels or reducing exposure until clearer signs of a reversal emerge. Conversely, value investors might monitor the stock for potential entry points near the lower end of its 52-week range, particularly if accompanied by improving volume and momentum indicators.
Sector-wise, the Furniture and Home Furnishing industry continues to face headwinds from fluctuating raw material costs and shifting consumer demand patterns, which may weigh on earnings prospects and stock valuations in the near term.

Outlook and Final Assessment
Responsive Industries Ltd’s technical profile currently signals a bearish outlook, reinforced by multiple momentum indicators and a recent downgrade in its Mojo Grade to Strong Sell. The stock’s underperformance relative to the Sensex over the past year and year-to-date period further emphasises the challenges it faces.
Investors should closely monitor upcoming earnings releases and sector developments for any signs of stabilisation or recovery. Until then, the technical and fundamental signals suggest a cautious stance, with potential for further downside risk in the near term.
For those seeking exposure to the Furniture and Home Furnishing sector, a thorough peer comparison and evaluation of alternative investment opportunities may be prudent, given the current momentum and valuation concerns surrounding Responsive Industries Ltd.
