Long-Term Performance and Financial Metrics
Over the past year, Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Co. Ltd has delivered a negative return of 47.26%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which posted a 7.38% gain during the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.72.89, highlighting the steep decline in value.
The company’s long-term financial health remains a concern. Operating profits have contracted at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -9.29% over the last five years. The firm’s ability to service debt is limited, with a high Debt to EBITDA ratio of 5.05 times, indicating elevated leverage relative to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation.
Profitability metrics also reflect subdued performance. The average Return on Equity (ROE) stands at 6.33%, signalling modest returns generated on shareholders’ funds. Additionally, the company has reported negative net profits for four consecutive quarters, with the Profit After Tax (PAT) for the first nine months at Rs.12.89 crores, declining by 43.93% year-on-year.
Quarterly operating profit to interest coverage is at a low 1.17 times, while the PBDIT (Profit Before Depreciation, Interest and Tax) for the quarter is Rs.6.17 crores, underscoring tight margins and limited cushion against financial costs.
Sector and Comparative Performance
Within the packaging sector, Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Co. Ltd’s performance has lagged behind peers and broader indices. The stock has underperformed the BSE500 index over the last three years, one year, and three months, reflecting persistent challenges in maintaining competitive positioning and profitability.
Despite the weak returns and financial indicators, the company’s Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is 6.7%, which, combined with an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 1, suggests an attractive valuation relative to capital invested. However, this valuation metric has not translated into positive stock performance or profit growth, as profits have declined by 13% over the past year.

Mojo Score and Market Capitalisation Assessment
Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Co. Ltd holds a Mojo Score of 12.0 and a Mojo Grade of Strong Sell, upgraded from a previous Sell rating on 25 September 2025. This grading reflects the company’s weak long-term fundamentals and deteriorating financial health. The market capitalisation grade is rated at 4, indicating a relatively small market cap within its sector.
The majority shareholding remains with promoters, maintaining control over corporate decisions despite the stock’s recent performance.
Summary of Key Concerns
The stock’s fall to Rs.37, its lowest level in 52 weeks, is underpinned by a combination of declining profitability, high leverage, and sustained negative earnings growth. The company’s inability to generate sufficient returns on equity and limited interest coverage ratio further compound concerns about financial stability. These factors have contributed to the stock’s underperformance relative to sector peers and benchmark indices.
While the packaging sector itself has experienced a decline of 2.36%, Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Co. Ltd’s sharper fall highlights company-specific pressures beyond broader market trends.
Conclusion
Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Co. Ltd’s new 52-week low at Rs.37 reflects a challenging period marked by subdued financial results and market sentiment. The stock’s performance over the past year and longer term indicates persistent difficulties in maintaining profitability and growth within the packaging sector. Investors and market participants will continue to monitor the company’s financial metrics and sector dynamics as it navigates this phase.
