Trading activity in the stock has been somewhat erratic, with the share not trading on one day out of the last 20, reflecting possible liquidity concerns or market hesitancy. Additionally, the stock is currently trading below all key moving averages — 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day — signalling a sustained bearish trend.
Long-Term and Recent Financial Performance

The average return on equity (ROE) stands at 8.19%, which is modest and suggests limited profitability relative to shareholders’ funds.

Comparative Performance and Valuation
Over the last year, Revathi Equipment India Ltd’s stock has delivered a negative return of 64.59%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which posted a positive return of 7.33% over the same period. The stock has also lagged behind the BSE500 index across multiple time frames, including the last three years, one year, and three months, highlighting persistent underperformance relative to broader market benchmarks.
Despite the weak performance, the stock’s valuation metrics present a contrasting picture. The price-to-book value ratio stands at a low 1.7, which may be considered attractive from a valuation standpoint. However, this is tempered by the company’s subdued profitability and declining sales. The fall in profits over the past year has been approximately 35%, compounding concerns about the company’s earnings trajectory.
Shareholding and Market Sentiment
The majority shareholding in Revathi Equipment India Ltd remains with the promoters, indicating concentrated ownership. This structure often implies a stable control environment but also places significant responsibility on the promoters to steer the company through its current difficulties.

Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Revathi Equipment India Ltd’s current market position is characterised by:
- A new 52-week and all-time low price of Rs.647.8
- Underperformance relative to sector and Sensex benchmarks
- Negative quarterly earnings for five consecutive periods
- Declining net sales and rising interest expenses
- Weak long-term growth in operating profits with a -26.82% CAGR over five years
- Modest average ROE of 8.19%
- Price trading below all major moving averages
These factors collectively contribute to the stock’s current grading as a Strong Sell, an upgrade from the previous Sell rating on 11 Nov 2025, reflecting a further deterioration in the company’s financial health and market sentiment. The Mojo Score stands at 17.0, underscoring the cautious stance on the stock within the Industrial Manufacturing sector.
Market Environment and Broader Implications
The broader market environment has shown mixed signals, with the Sensex trading below its 50-day moving average but with the 50-day average still above the 200-day average, indicating some underlying resilience in the benchmark index. However, Revathi Equipment India Ltd’s share price trajectory diverges sharply from this trend, emphasising company-specific challenges that have weighed on investor confidence.
While the stock’s valuation metrics may appear appealing on a price-to-book basis, the sustained decline in profitability and sales, coupled with rising financing costs, present significant headwinds. The company’s performance over the past year, with a 64.59% loss in share price and a 35% drop in profits, highlights the scale of the challenges faced.
Conclusion
Revathi Equipment India Ltd’s fall to a new 52-week low of Rs.647.8 marks a continuation of a prolonged downtrend driven by weak financial results and subdued market performance. The stock’s underperformance relative to sector peers and the broader market, combined with deteriorating earnings and rising costs, has led to a Strong Sell grading and a low Mojo Score. These factors collectively illustrate the current state of the company’s market standing as of 29 Jan 2026.
