9 February: Q3 FY26 Results Highlight Revenue Surge
SC Agrotech Ltd kicked off the week with the announcement of its Q3 FY26 results, showcasing a remarkable surge in revenue. This strong topline growth was a key catalyst for the stock’s 2.00% gain on the day, closing at Rs.29.62.

On 10 February, SC Agrotech’s quality grade was upgraded from below average to average, accompanied by a Mojo Score increase to 76.0 and a Mojo Grade upgrade from Hold to Buy.

11 February: Valuation Reassessment Signals Shift in Price Attractiveness
The same day, SC Agrotech’s valuation parameters underwent a significant reassessment. Despite a persistently high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 89.08 and a price-to-book value (P/BV) ratio of 66.88, the company’s valuation grade improved from 'risky' to 'does not qualify'. This shift indicated a more favourable perception of the stock’s price attractiveness relative to its historical and peer benchmarks within the FMCG sector. The upgrade to a Buy rating reflected confidence in the company’s strong return metrics, including an exceptional ROE of 75.09%, despite a negative ROCE of -36.04%. The stock gained another 1.99% to close at Rs.30.81, while the Sensex edged up 0.13%.
12 February: Price Stability Amid Sensex Decline
On 12 February, SC Agrotech’s stock price remained steady at Rs.30.81, showing no change from the previous close despite a sharp 0.56% decline in the Sensex. The flat price movement amid broader market weakness suggested investor caution, possibly reflecting ongoing concerns about the company’s capital efficiency and earnings quality. However, the stock’s resilience relative to the market decline was a positive sign of underlying support.

Strong Revenue Growth: The Q3 FY26 results demonstrated SC Agrotech’s ability to deliver robust sales expansion, which was a primary driver of the stock’s weekly gains.
Quality Grade Upgrade: The improvement in the company’s quality grade and Mojo Score to 76.0 reflected enhanced business fundamentals, particularly a high ROE and low leverage, despite concerns over capital efficiency and interest coverage.
Valuation Reassessment: The shift in valuation grade from 'risky' to 'does not qualify' signalled a more favourable risk-reward profile, even though valuation multiples remain elevated compared to peers.
Market Outperformance: SC Agrotech’s 8.16% weekly gain contrasted sharply with the Sensex’s 0.54% decline, underscoring the stock’s resilience and investor confidence amid broader market weakness.
Cautionary Signals: The negative ROCE and interest coverage ratios highlight ongoing challenges in capital utilisation and earnings quality that investors should monitor closely.
Conclusion
SC Agrotech Ltd’s performance over the week ending 13 February 2026 was marked by a strong price rally driven by positive earnings momentum, an upgrade in quality assessment, and a more favourable valuation outlook. The stock’s significant outperformance relative to the Sensex reflects investor optimism about its growth prospects and operational improvements. However, the contrasting financial metrics, particularly the negative return on capital employed and interest coverage concerns, suggest that the company faces challenges in capital efficiency and earnings consistency. These factors warrant careful scrutiny as the company continues to navigate its growth trajectory within the FMCG sector. Overall, SC Agrotech remains a compelling stock with a balanced outlook, combining strong growth signals with areas requiring cautious evaluation.
