On Monday, Sakthi Finance Ltd’s stock touched a new 52-week low of Rs.29.45, reflecting ongoing weakness.

Thursday witnessed a sharp fall of 4.12% to Rs.29.80 on volume of 15,638 shares, as the Sensex declined 0.56% to 37,049.40.

The week closed on a weak note with Sakthi Finance Ltd’s stock falling 2.72% to Rs.28.99, marking a fresh 52-week low of Rs.28.50 during the session. The Sensex fell 1.40% to 36,532.48, indicating broader market weakness. The company reported a significant deterioration in its financial trend for the quarter ended December 2025, despite record net sales of ₹54.81 crores and cash reserves of ₹191.33 crores.

Financial Strain Evident: Despite record quarterly net sales and strong cash reserves, profitability has deteriorated sharply. The company’s Profit Before Tax less Other Income and Profit After Tax reached quarterly lows, while operating margins contracted to 63.55%, signalling margin pressure.
Elevated Leverage Risks: The debt-equity ratio remains high at 5.45 times, raising concerns about financial risk and the company’s ability to service debt amid shrinking profits.
Valuation Discount vs Peers: The stock trades at a Price to Book Value of 0.8 and a PEG ratio of 1.6, suggesting an attractive valuation relative to peers despite weak fundamentals. However, the MarketsMOJO Mojo Grade of Strong Sell reflects the cautious market outlook.
Conclusion
Sakthi Finance Ltd’s performance over the week ending 13 February 2026 highlights ongoing challenges in both market valuation and financial health. The stock’s decline to fresh 52-week lows amid deteriorating profitability and high leverage underscores the risks facing the company. While valuation metrics suggest the stock is trading at a discount, the negative financial trend and weak earnings performance warrant continued caution. The broader market’s relative resilience contrasts with Sakthi Finance’s struggles, emphasising the need for close monitoring of operational improvements and balance sheet deleveraging in the coming quarters.
