Recent Price Movement and Market Context
The stock has been on a losing streak for the past three consecutive days, registering a cumulative decline of -3.46% during this period. Today’s price of Rs.30.3 represents the lowest level the stock has traded at in the last year, down substantially from its 52-week high of Rs.59.5. This decline contrasts sharply with the broader market, where the Sensex opened lower at 84,620.40, down by -442.94 points (-0.52%), but remains relatively resilient, trading just 1.53% below its own 52-week high of 86,159.02. The Sensex is currently supported by bullish moving averages, trading above its 50-day moving average, which itself is above the 200-day moving average.
Sigachi Industries has underperformed its sector and the broader market, with the stock lagging the Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology sector by -0.5% today. The stock is trading below all key moving averages — 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day — indicating a persistent bearish momentum.
Financial Performance and Valuation Metrics
Over the past year, Sigachi Industries has delivered a negative return of -39.80%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which has gained 8.50% over the same period. The company’s financial results have reflected this trend, with net sales declining by -13.86% in the September 2025 quarter. Profit after tax (PAT) for the quarter stood at Rs.6.03 crores, down sharply by -68.7% compared to the average of the previous four quarters.
The company’s return on capital employed (ROCE) for the half-year ended is notably low at 4.37%, while the debt-to-equity ratio has risen to a high of 2.86 times, signalling increased leverage. Despite this, the company maintains a relatively strong ability to service its debt, with a low debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.64 times. The enterprise value to capital employed ratio stands at 2.2, suggesting the stock is trading at a fair valuation relative to its peers’ historical averages.

Shareholding and Market Sentiment
Promoter shareholding in Sigachi Industries includes a significant portion of pledged shares, with 39.55% of promoter shares currently pledged. This elevated level of pledged shares can exert additional downward pressure on the stock price, particularly in falling markets, as it may lead to forced selling or increased market apprehension.
The company’s Mojo Score stands at 26.0, with a Mojo Grade of Strong Sell as of 29 July 2025, an upgrade from the previous Sell rating. The market capitalisation grade is rated at 3, reflecting the company’s mid-tier size within its sector.
Long-Term and Recent Performance Trends
Sigachi Industries has demonstrated subdued long-term growth, with operating profit growing at an annualised rate of 14.74% over the last five years. However, recent quarterly results have been less encouraging, with a notable decline in net sales and profitability. The stock has underperformed the BSE500 index over the last three years, one year, and three months, indicating persistent challenges in maintaining competitive performance.
Despite these headwinds, the company’s valuation metrics suggest it is trading at a reasonable level compared to its peers, with a ROCE of 13.1 and an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 2.2. Profitability has declined by -7.2% over the past year, aligning with the stock’s negative return trajectory.

Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Sigachi Industries Ltd’s stock has reached a 52-week low of Rs.30.3, reflecting a sustained decline over recent months and quarters. The company’s financial indicators reveal a contraction in sales and profits, increased leverage, and a high proportion of pledged promoter shares. While the stock is trading below all major moving averages, the broader market remains relatively stable, with the Sensex maintaining a position near its 52-week high supported by bullish technical indicators.
The company’s Mojo Grade of Strong Sell and a Mojo Score of 26.0 underscore the cautious stance reflected in the stock’s performance. Despite these challenges, valuation metrics indicate the stock is not excessively overvalued relative to its sector peers, with some measures suggesting fair value levels.
