Strong Momentum Drives Stock to Record Levels
The stock’s ascent to Rs.4931.5 represents a substantial increase from its 52-week low of Rs.1030.9, reflecting a staggering one-year performance gain of 298.68%. This outpaces the broader Sensex index, which has risen by 8.92% over the same period. The impressive rally underscores the robust momentum behind SML Mahindra Ltd’s shares, which have consistently traded above key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages.
Despite a slight pullback today, with the stock touching an intraday low of Rs.4690 (-3.57%) and closing with a day change of -1.47%, the overall trend remains firmly bullish. The recent four-day consecutive gain prior to today’s dip highlights sustained investor confidence and positive price action.
Sector and Market Context
The automobile sector, particularly the Auto - Trucks segment, experienced a decline of -2.13% today, underperforming relative to SML Mahindra Ltd’s more modest day loss of -1.47%. This relative resilience is notable given the broader sector weakness. Meanwhile, the Sensex opened lower at 82,902.73, down 772.19 points (-0.92%), and is currently trading at 82,961.11 (-0.85%), remaining 3.85% below its own 52-week high of 86,159.02. The Sensex’s position below its 50-day moving average, despite the 50DMA trading above the 200DMA, contrasts with SML Mahindra Ltd’s strong technical positioning above all major moving averages.

Mojo Score and Rating Upgrade
SML Mahindra Ltd currently holds a Mojo Score of 65.0, reflecting a Hold rating. This marks an improvement from its previous Sell rating, which was revised on 27 Oct 2025. The upgrade signals a positive reassessment of the company’s fundamentals and market standing. The stock’s Market Cap Grade is 3, indicating a mid-tier market capitalisation relative to its peers within the automobile sector.
Technical and Price Action Analysis
The stock’s ability to sustain levels above all major moving averages is a key technical indicator of strength. The 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages all provide support levels that the stock has consistently maintained, reinforcing the upward trend. The recent peak at Rs.4931.5 is a new benchmark for the company, setting a fresh high-water mark for investors and analysts alike.
While the stock underperformed the sector today by -0.69%, this is within the context of a broader sector decline. The resilience relative to the Auto - Trucks segment’s -2.13% fall suggests that SML Mahindra Ltd’s shares are holding up better than many of its competitors in the current market environment.
Historical Performance and Market Position
Over the past year, SML Mahindra Ltd’s stock has demonstrated exceptional growth, rising nearly threefold from its low point. This performance is particularly notable against the backdrop of the Sensex’s more modest gains.
