3-4 February: Price Fluctuations Amid Mixed Market Trends
On 3 February, the stock declined 0.48% to Rs.4,015.60, while the Sensex surged 2.63% to 36,755.96, indicating underperformance. The following day, 4 February, Sanofi India rebounded by 0.52% to Rs.4,036.60, slightly outperforming the Sensex’s 0.37% gain. These fluctuations reflected ongoing uncertainty, with technical indicators showing short-term bullishness but daily moving averages remaining bearish. Volume was relatively low, suggesting limited conviction behind the price moves.
5 February: Downgrade to Sell Amid Weak Financials and Bearish Technicals
MarketsMOJO downgraded Sanofi India from Hold to Sell on 5 February, citing deteriorating technical indicators and disappointing financial trends. The stock closed at Rs.4,010.60, down 0.64%, while the Sensex fell 0.53%. Despite strong management efficiency, with a high ROE of 49.40% and zero debt-to-equity ratio, the company’s flat quarterly results and declining sales and profits weighed heavily on sentiment. The downgrade reflected a shift from mildly bearish to outright bearish momentum, with monthly MACD and Bollinger Bands signalling increased downside risk. The stock’s valuation, though attractive with a 4.8% dividend yield, did not offset concerns over persistent underperformance and weakening fundamentals.
6 February: Bearish Momentum Confirmed Amid Technical Downgrade
On the final trading day of the week, Sanofi India’s price slipped further by 0.22% to Rs.4,001.90, while the Sensex gained 0.10%. Technical indicators confirmed a pronounced bearish trend, with daily moving averages firmly negative and On-Balance Volume showing selling pressure. The stock traded near its 52-week low of Rs.3,976.40, underscoring vulnerability to further declines. Weekly MACD and RSI remained mildly bullish, but monthly indicators and volume trends suggested that any short-term gains were fragile. The downgrade to a Mojo Score of 47.0 and Sell rating encapsulated the cautious market stance amid ongoing challenges.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: Despite the overall bearish tone, weekly technical indicators such as MACD, RSI, and KST showed mild bullishness, suggesting some short-term buying interest. The company’s strong management efficiency, reflected in a high ROE of 49.40% and zero debt, supports operational discipline. The attractive dividend yield of 4.8% offers income appeal amid market volatility.
Cautionary Signals: The downgrade to a Sell rating by MarketsMOJO highlights deteriorating technical momentum and weak financial trends, including flat quarterly results and declining sales and profits. The stock’s persistent underperformance relative to the Sensex, trading near its 52-week low, and bearish monthly indicators signal ongoing downside risks. Volume trends confirm selling pressure, and daily moving averages remain firmly negative.
Conclusion
Sanofi India Ltd’s performance in the week ending 6 February 2026 was characterised by a subtle but clear shift towards bearish momentum, culminating in a downgrade to a Sell rating. While short-term technical indicators offered some optimism, the dominant longer-term signals and fundamental weaknesses suggest that the stock faces significant headwinds. The underperformance relative to the Sensex and proximity to support levels near Rs.4,000 warrant caution. Investors should closely monitor technical developments and financial results to assess any potential stabilisation or further declines in the coming weeks.
