22 June 2026: Upgrade to Hold Sparks Initial Optimism
On 22 June, TCI Express Ltd’s stock price rose by 0.89% to close at Rs.540.00, outperforming the Sensex’s 0.46% gain. This followed MarketsMOJO’s upgrade of the stock’s rating from Sell to Hold, driven by improved technical indicators despite ongoing fundamental challenges. The company’s Mojo Score rose to 52.0, reflecting a shift from a sideways to a mildly bullish technical trend.
However, the upgrade came against a backdrop of flat financial performance, with net sales declining at a CAGR of -0.66% over five years and operating profit shrinking by 23.10% annually. Profit after tax fell 8.8% to Rs.17.65 crores in the latest quarter, and earnings per share hit a five-year low of Rs.4.17. Valuation remained elevated with a price-to-book ratio of 2.5, despite the weak fundamentals.
23 June 2026: Technical Momentum Signals Mild Bullishness
The following day, the stock reversed sharply, falling 2.13% to Rs.528.50 amid a broader market decline where the Sensex dropped 1.05%. Technical analysis indicated a shift to a mildly bullish momentum, supported by positive weekly and monthly MACD and Know Sure Thing (KST) indicators. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remained neutral, suggesting room for further price movement without overextension.
Despite the short-term price dip, the upgrade to Hold and the technical momentum shift suggested a tentative recovery phase. The stock’s recent outperformance over the past month and week relative to the Sensex reinforced this cautious optimism, although longer-term returns remained negative.

24 June 2026: Sharp Intraday Surge to Rs.609.10
On 24 June, TCI Express Ltd delivered a remarkable intraday rally, surging 15.25% to close at Rs.609.10, with an intraday high of Rs.608. This spike significantly outpaced the Sensex’s 0.53% gain and the transport services sector’s performance, highlighting strong buying interest and volatility. The stock traded above all key moving averages, signalling positive momentum across short and long-term horizons.
This surge was accompanied by heavy volume, with 197,222 shares traded, reflecting heightened investor focus. Weekly and monthly technical indicators such as MACD, KST, and Dow Theory confirmed a mildly bullish stance, although Bollinger Bands suggested some caution over the longer term. Despite this strong short-term performance, the stock’s longer-term returns remained subdued, with losses exceeding 60% over three and five years.
25 June 2026: Intraday Low and Price Pressure Amid Market Strength
The following day, the stock reversed sharply, falling 12.36% to close at Rs.533.80 after hitting an intraday low of Rs.539.50. This decline contrasted with the Sensex’s 0.05% dip and a broadly positive market environment, where the benchmark index had been on a three-week consecutive rise. The stock underperformed its sector by 12.18%, indicating company-specific pressures or profit-taking.
Technical indicators showed mixed signals: while the stock remained above short-term moving averages, it traded below the 200-day average, reflecting longer-term caution. Daily moving averages were mildly bearish, though weekly and monthly momentum indicators retained a mildly bullish bias. The Mojo Score remained steady at 52.0 with a Hold rating, underscoring a balanced but cautious outlook.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: The upgrade to Hold by MarketsMOJO and the shift in technical momentum to a mildly bullish stance indicate potential stabilisation after prolonged underperformance. The stock’s outperformance relative to the Sensex over the past week and month suggests emerging investor interest. The intraday surge on 24 June demonstrated strong buying momentum and technical strength above key moving averages.
Cautionary Notes: Despite technical improvements, fundamental challenges persist with flat to declining financial performance, low profitability metrics, and an expensive valuation relative to peers. The sharp reversal on 25 June amid a positive market environment highlights ongoing volatility and investor caution. Longer-term returns remain significantly negative, underscoring structural issues in the company’s growth and earnings trajectory.
Conclusion
TCI Express Ltd’s week was marked by significant price volatility driven by a combination of technical upgrades and fundamental concerns. The MarketsMOJO upgrade to Hold and improved momentum indicators provide a cautiously optimistic outlook, suggesting the stock may be entering a phase of consolidation or mild recovery. However, the steep intraday swings and persistent financial underperformance warrant a careful approach. Investors should monitor upcoming quarterly results and sector developments closely to assess whether the technical gains can be sustained amid the company’s broader challenges.
