Suzlon Energy Ltd Falls to 52-Week Low Amid Market Underperformance

Stock Price Movement and Market Context

On 23 Feb 2026, Suzlon Energy’s share price declined by 0.56%, closing at Rs.44.13, its lowest level in the past year. This drop comes after three consecutive days of losses, during which the stock has fallen by 3.97%. Despite this, Suzlon marginally outperformed its sector by 0.37% today. The stock is currently trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling a persistent downward trend.

In contrast, the broader market has shown resilience. The Sensex opened 92.12 points higher and climbed further by 287.42 points to close at 83,194.25, a gain of 0.46%. The index remains just 3.56% shy of its 52-week high of 86,159.02. Mega-cap stocks have been the primary drivers of this rally, while Suzlon’s performance has lagged significantly behind.

Comparative Performance Over the Past Year

Over the last 12 months, Suzlon Energy has recorded a negative return of 20.11%, a stark contrast to the Sensex’s positive return of 10.49% and the BSE500’s 13.01% gain. This underperformance highlights the stock’s challenges in keeping pace with broader market and sectoral growth. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.74.30, indicating a substantial decline of approximately 40.6% from that peak.

Valuation and Financial Metrics

Suzlon Energy’s current valuation metrics have contributed to its subdued market performance. The company holds a Price to Book Value (P/B) ratio of 7.7, which is considered very expensive relative to its peers’ historical averages. Despite this premium valuation, the stock is trading at a discount compared to the average historical valuations of its sector counterparts.

The company’s Return on Equity (ROE) stands at a robust 40.4%, indicating strong profitability relative to shareholder equity. Additionally, the Price/Earnings to Growth (PEG) ratio is notably low at 0.1, reflecting the company’s earnings growth relative to its price. However, these positive profitability indicators have not translated into share price appreciation over the past year.

Operational and Growth Indicators

Financially, Suzlon Energy has demonstrated healthy long-term growth. Net sales have increased at an annual rate of 39.30%, while operating profit has expanded by 55.82%. The company has reported positive results for five consecutive quarters, with the latest six-month Profit After Tax (PAT) reaching Rs.1,724.72 crores, a growth of 193.76% compared to previous periods.

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) for the half-year period is strong at 28.23%, and quarterly net sales have hit a high of Rs.4,236.09 crores. These figures underscore the company’s capacity to generate earnings and expand its business despite the stock’s recent price weakness.

Balance Sheet and Institutional Holding

Suzlon Energy maintains a conservative capital structure with an average Debt to Equity ratio of zero, indicating minimal reliance on debt financing. This low leverage reduces financial risk and supports sustainable growth prospects.

Institutional investors hold a significant stake in the company, with 32.97% of shares owned by entities with extensive analytical resources. This level of institutional holding suggests confidence in the company’s fundamentals despite the recent share price decline.

Mojo Score and Rating Update

The company’s Mojo Score currently stands at 36.0, reflecting a cautious outlook. On 24 Sep 2025, Suzlon Energy’s Mojo Grade was downgraded from Hold to Sell, signalling a reassessment of its risk and return profile. The Market Cap Grade is rated at 2, indicating a relatively modest market capitalisation compared to larger peers in the sector.

Summary of Key Metrics

To summarise, Suzlon Energy Ltd’s stock has reached a 52-week low of Rs.44.13 amid a backdrop of strong sectoral and market performance. The stock’s decline contrasts with the company’s solid financial growth, profitability, and conservative balance sheet. Valuation concerns and relative underperformance have contributed to the current price level, despite positive earnings momentum and institutional support.

While the broader market and Sensex continue to advance, Suzlon’s share price remains under pressure, reflecting a complex interplay of valuation, market sentiment, and comparative performance within the Heavy Electrical Equipment sector.
