Stock Price Movement and Market Context
On 8 December 2025, Suraj Estate Developers’ share price declined to an intraday low of Rs.263, representing a fall of 6.1% during the trading session. The stock has been on a downward trajectory for two consecutive days, accumulating a loss of 7.59% over this period. This performance contrasts with the broader Realty sector, which itself has experienced a decline of 3.52% on the same day.
In comparison, the Sensex opened flat but later fell by 522.15 points, closing at 85,102.69, down 0.71%. Despite this, the Sensex remains close to its 52-week high of 86,159.02, trading above its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, signalling a generally bullish trend in the broader market. Suraj Estate Developers, however, is trading below all key moving averages including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day, indicating sustained downward pressure on the stock.
Financial Performance and Profitability Metrics
Over the past year, Suraj Estate Developers has recorded a return of -61.08%, significantly underperforming the Sensex, which has shown a positive return of 4.15% during the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.686.95, highlighting the extent of the recent decline.
The company’s financial indicators reveal areas of concern. The Debt to EBITDA ratio stands at 2.64 times, suggesting a relatively high level of debt compared to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation. This ratio points to a constrained capacity to service debt obligations efficiently.
Return on Equity (ROE), averaged at 9.68%, indicates modest profitability relative to shareholders’ funds. Meanwhile, the Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is reported at 12.8%, which is comparatively more favourable and suggests some efficiency in capital utilisation.

Cash Flow and Interest Expenses
The company’s operating cash flow for the year is reported at a low of Rs. -306.34 crores, reflecting cash outflows from core business activities. Interest expenses for the latest six months have risen by 67.91%, amounting to Rs.41.12 crores, which adds to the financial burden and impacts net profitability.
Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) for the year is at its lowest, recorded at 0.00%, indicating no dividends were distributed to shareholders during this period. This may reflect a cautious approach to cash management amid financial pressures.
Institutional Investor Activity
Institutional investors have reduced their holdings by 1.01% over the previous quarter, now collectively holding 2.62% of the company’s shares. This decline in institutional participation may be indicative of a shift in market assessment regarding the company’s fundamentals.
Long-Term and Recent Performance Trends
Suraj Estate Developers has underperformed not only in the last year but also over longer periods, including the last three years and the most recent three months, relative to the BSE500 index. This sustained underperformance highlights ongoing challenges in maintaining competitive returns within the Realty sector.
Valuation and Profit Growth
Despite the stock’s decline, the company’s valuation metrics present some points of interest. The Enterprise Value to Capital Employed ratio stands at 1.3, which is considered attractive. Additionally, profits have risen by 35% over the past year, even as the stock price has declined. The Price/Earnings to Growth (PEG) ratio is reported at 0.6, suggesting that profit growth has not been fully reflected in the share price.

Sectoral and Market Dynamics
The Realty sector, to which Suraj Estate Developers belongs, has experienced a decline of 3.52% on the day the stock hit its 52-week low. This sectoral movement adds context to the stock’s performance, although Suraj Estate Developers’ decline has outpaced the sector average.
While the broader market indices such as the Sensex maintain a position near their yearly highs, the Realty sector and Suraj Estate Developers have not mirrored this strength, reflecting sector-specific pressures and company-specific factors.
Summary of Key Financial Indicators
To summarise, Suraj Estate Developers’ stock price at Rs.263 marks a significant low point within the last 52 weeks. The company’s financial metrics reveal a high debt burden relative to earnings, modest returns on equity, and a challenging cash flow situation. Institutional investor participation has declined, and the stock’s performance has lagged behind broader market indices and sector peers over multiple time frames.
Nevertheless, profit growth and valuation ratios suggest some underlying strengths that have yet to be fully reflected in the share price. The stock’s position below all major moving averages indicates continued caution among market participants.
