13 July 2026: New 52-Week High Signals Strong Momentum
Scan Steels Ltd began the week on a robust note, hitting a new 52-week high intraday peak of Rs.49.81 and closing at Rs.50.08, a 5.50% gain on the day. This surge reflected a continuation of the stock’s strong upward momentum, with a cumulative return of 24.22% over the preceding three trading days. The stock outperformed its sector by 5.55% and traded comfortably above all key moving averages, signalling sustained buying interest.
Financially, the company’s recent quarterly results supported this rally, with net sales rising 41.2% to Rs.281.66 crores and net profit after tax surging 66.0% to Rs.7.85 crores. The low Debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.46 times and a ROCE of 6.5% further reinforced the company’s solid fundamentals. Despite a five-year negative sales CAGR of -6.82%, the short-term operational improvements have clearly bolstered investor confidence.

The stock outperformed its sector by 0.52% and maintained its position above all major moving averages, confirming the bullish technical setup.
Valuation metrics remained attractive, with the company trading at a P/E ratio of 13.10 and a P/BV of 0.64, both favourable compared to peers in the ferrous metals sector. Enterprise value multiples such as EV/EBITDA at 7.24 further highlighted operational efficiency.
