Sigachi Industries Ltd Drops 10.77% Amidst Persistent Downtrend and Financial Strain

27 January 2026: New 52-Week and All-Time Lows Amid Prolonged Downtrend

On 27 January, Sigachi Industries Ltd’s stock price plunged to a new 52-week low of Rs.20.75 and an all-time low of Rs.21.35, reflecting a continuation of a severe downtrend. The stock closed at Rs.19.61, down 12.02% for the day, significantly underperforming the Sensex which rose 0.50%. This day marked the 15th consecutive session of losses, with a cumulative decline exceeding 33% over this period.

The stock traded below all key moving averages, signalling sustained bearish momentum. Financially, the company reported a 13.86% decline in net sales for the quarter ending September 2025 and a sharp 68.7% drop in profit after tax (PAT) to Rs.6.03 crore. The return on capital employed (ROCE) was low at 4.37%, while the debt-to-equity ratio rose to 2.86 times, indicating increased leverage. Promoter share pledging increased to 40.32%, adding further pressure on the stock price.

Despite these challenges, the company’s debt servicing capacity remains relatively sound with a Debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.64 times. However, the overall market sentiment remained negative, reflected in the downgrade to a Strong Sell rating by MarketsMOJO with a Mojo Score of 26.0.

28 January 2026: Intraday High Surge Offers Temporary Relief

Following the steep losses, the stock rebounded on 28 January with a notable intraday high of Rs.20.66, surging 7.09% during the session and closing at Rs.20.49, up 4.49%. This rally outpaced the Sensex’s 1.12% gain and the Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology sector’s performance, signalling a brief respite from the downtrend.

Despite this bounce, the stock remained below all major moving averages, indicating that the rally was likely a short-term correction rather than a reversal of the prevailing bearish trend. The company’s longer-term performance metrics continued to reflect weakness, with year-to-date losses exceeding 33% and a one-year decline of over 55%.

29 January 2026: Renewed Declines and Fresh Lows

On 29 January, Sigachi Industries Ltd’s stock price fell again, hitting a fresh 52-week low of Rs.19.42 and an all-time low intraday of Rs.19.45. The stock closed at Rs.19.91, down 2.83%, underperforming the Sensex which gained 0.22%. The day’s trading was marked by high volatility and sustained selling pressure.

The company’s financial challenges remained evident, with a continued decline in profitability and elevated leverage. The promoter pledge percentage increased further, exacerbating concerns about potential forced selling. The stock’s valuation metrics, including an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 1.5 and a ROCE of 13.1%, suggested some relative attractiveness, but these factors failed to stem the price decline.

30 January 2026: Week Closes at Fresh 52-Week Low Amid Continued Pressure

The week ended with Sigachi Industries Ltd’s stock touching a new 52-week and all-time low of Rs.19.3, closing at Rs.19.89, down 0.10% on the day and 10.77% for the week. The stock marginally outperformed its sector on the day but continued to lag the Sensex, which declined 0.22% on 30 January and gained 1.62% over the week.

Financially, the company’s metrics remained subdued with a low ROCE of 4.37%, high debt-to-equity ratio of 2.86 times, and a significant promoter pledge of 40.32%. Profit after tax declined sharply by 68.7% in the latest quarter, while net sales fell 13.86%. Despite a relatively low Debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.64 times indicating manageable debt servicing, the overall sentiment remained negative.

Valuation metrics such as an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 1.4 and a trailing ROCE of 13.1% suggest some underlying value, but these have not translated into positive price momentum. The MarketsMOJO Mojo Score remains at 29.0 with a Strong Sell rating, reflecting the company’s deteriorating fundamentals and market outlook.

Key Takeaways

The week’s trading activity for Sigachi Industries Ltd was dominated by persistent weakness, with the stock falling 10.77% against a Sensex gain of 1.62%. The stock’s decline was driven by a combination of deteriorating financial results, including a 13.86% drop in net sales and a 68.7% fall in PAT, alongside elevated leverage and increased promoter share pledging.

Technical indicators remained bearish throughout the week, with the stock trading below all major moving averages and hitting fresh 52-week and all-time lows. Despite a brief intraday rally on 28 January, the overall trend remained downward.

Valuation metrics suggest the stock trades at a discount relative to peers, with an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of around 1.4 to 1.6 and a trailing ROCE near 13.1%. However, these positives have not been sufficient to offset concerns about profitability, leverage, and market sentiment.

The MarketsMOJO Strong Sell rating and Mojo Score of 29.0 reflect the accumulation of these negative factors, signalling caution for investors amid ongoing challenges.

Conclusion

Sigachi Industries Ltd’s stock performance during the week ending 30 January 2026 underscores a period of significant stress for the company. The steep 10.77% weekly decline amid a rising Sensex highlights the stock’s underperformance and the market’s cautious stance. Persistent financial headwinds, including declining sales and profits, high leverage, and increased promoter pledging, have weighed heavily on the share price.

While valuation metrics indicate some relative attractiveness, the stock remains entrenched in a bearish technical pattern with no clear signs of sustained recovery. The Strong Sell rating from MarketsMOJO further emphasises the challenges ahead. Market participants will continue to monitor the company’s financial disclosures and market developments closely as the situation evolves.
