Thursday, 20 August: Partial Recovery on Increased Volume

The stock rebounded on 20 August, gaining 1.63% to close at Rs.121.65 on strong volume of 45,874 shares. This recovery was supported by mildly bullish weekly MACD and KST indicators, suggesting some short-term momentum despite the prevailing bearish monthly trend. The Sensex also rose 0.63%, indicating a broader market bounce. However, the recovery was insufficient to offset earlier losses, and the stock remained below the week’s opening price.

Friday, 21 August: Gains Continue but Weekly Loss Persists

TARC Ltd extended its gains on the final trading day, rising 2.10% to Rs.124.20 on volume of 23,538 shares. The Sensex was nearly flat, up 0.02% at 36,814.22. Despite this positive close, the stock ended the week down 0.68%, underperforming the Sensex’s 0.40% decline. The technical outlook remains cautious, with daily moving averages still bearish and monthly indicators signalling ongoing risk. The Mojo Score of 29.0 and Strong Sell rating reflect these challenges.

Conclusion

TARC Ltd’s week was marked by a clear shift towards bearish technical momentum and a significant downgrade to Strong Sell by MarketsMOJO, reflecting ongoing financial and operational challenges. While the stock showed some resilience with gains on the last two trading days, the overall weekly decline of 0.68% and underperformance relative to the Sensex highlight persistent headwinds.

The current Mojo Score of 29.0 underscores the elevated risk profile, suggesting a cautious stance is warranted in the near term.
