Strong Price Momentum and Recent Performance
On 7 January 2026, Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Ltd surged to a new 52-week and all-time high of Rs.1860.9, registering a 5.00% gain on the day. This advance notably outperformed the broader Sensex, which declined marginally by 0.12% during the same session. The stock opened with a gap up of 5%, maintaining this elevated price throughout the trading day without any intraday range, underscoring strong buying interest and price stability at these levels.
The stock has demonstrated remarkable resilience and strength over multiple time frames. It has recorded a consecutive five-day gain, delivering a cumulative return of 27.62% during this period. Extending the horizon, the one-month performance stands at an impressive 55.11%, while the three-month return has soared to 178.47%. These figures starkly contrast with the Sensex’s modest 3.70% gain over the same three-month period, highlighting Swan Defence’s exceptional outperformance.
Long-Term Growth Trajectory
Over the longer term, Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Ltd’s stock price appreciation has been extraordinary. The one-year return is a staggering 81,877.97%, dwarfing the Sensex’s 8.65% gain. Similarly, the three-year and five-year returns stand at 76,166.39% and 57,691.93% respectively, compared to the Sensex’s 41.84% and 76.66% over the same durations. Even on a decadal scale, the stock has delivered a robust 2,183.31% return, significantly outperforming the Sensex’s 241.87% growth.
This sustained upward trajectory is supported by the stock trading comfortably above all key moving averages — 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day — signalling a strong bullish trend and positive market sentiment.

On the day of the record high, the stock outperformed its sector by 3.44%, reinforcing its leadership position. The company holds a Market Capitalisation Grade of 3, reflecting a mid-tier market cap status within its industry.

Mojo Score and Rating Context
According to MarketsMOJO’s proprietary scoring system, Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Ltd holds a Mojo Score of 46.0 with a current Mojo Grade of Sell, as of the last grade change on 24 July 2021. This rating reflects a cautious stance based on a combination of fundamental and technical factors assessed by the platform. The previous grade was not rated, indicating this is the first formal assessment under the current framework.
While the Mojo Grade suggests a sell rating, the stock’s price action and market performance present a contrasting narrative of strong upward momentum and record-setting valuations. This divergence highlights the complexity of market dynamics where technical strength and fundamental assessments may not always align perfectly.

The opening price on the record day was Rs.1860.9, identical to the day’s high, indicating no significant intraday volatility. This price stability at a new peak is a positive technical indicator, often signalling consolidation before potential further moves.
