Stock Price Movement and Market Context
The stock recorded this fresh low after a period of sustained downward pressure, underperforming its sector by 0.75% on the day. Despite a slight gain of 0.26% today, The Anup Engineering Ltd remains below all major moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, indicating a persistent bearish trend. This contrasts with the broader market, where the Sensex rose by 0.52% to close at 82,281.36, edging closer to its 52-week high of 86,159.02, just 4.71% away.
The Sensex’s performance has been supported by mega-cap stocks, while The Anup Engineering Ltd’s stock has lagged significantly over the past year. The company’s share price has declined by 41.29% in the last 12 months, compared to an 8.41% gain in the Sensex and a 9.27% return from the broader BSE500 index. This divergence highlights the stock’s relative weakness within the industrial manufacturing sector and the wider market.
Valuation and Financial Metrics
One of the key factors contributing to the stock’s subdued performance is its valuation. The Anup Engineering Ltd currently holds a Mojo Score of 43.0, with a Mojo Grade of Sell, downgraded from Hold on 18 Nov 2025. The company’s return on capital employed (ROCE) stands at 19.9%, which is respectable but accompanied by a high enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 4.6, suggesting the stock is trading at a premium relative to its capital base.
Despite this premium valuation, the company’s profits have declined marginally by 0.9% over the past year. This slight contraction in profitability, combined with the elevated valuation multiples, has weighed on investor sentiment and contributed to the stock’s downward trajectory.
Operational and Financial Strengths
On the positive side, The Anup Engineering Ltd demonstrates strong management efficiency, reflected in a high return on equity (ROE) of 15.99%. The company maintains a conservative capital structure, with an average debt-to-equity ratio of just 0.05 times, indicating low leverage and financial prudence.
Recent quarterly results also show some encouraging signs. Net sales for the quarter reached a peak of Rs.232.28 crores, while the dividend per share (DPS) was recorded at Rs.17.00, with a dividend payout ratio (DPR) of 29.14%. These figures suggest the company continues to generate healthy cash flows and reward shareholders despite the challenging stock price environment.

Comparative Performance and Sector Analysis
The Anup Engineering Ltd’s performance over the last year has been notably weaker than its peers and the broader industrial manufacturing sector. While the sector has seen mixed results, the company’s stock has not kept pace with the market’s recovery and growth trends. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs.3624, more than double the current price, underscoring the scale of the decline.
Its market capitalisation grade is rated at 3, reflecting a mid-tier valuation relative to its size and sector peers. The downgrade from Hold to Sell by MarketsMOJO on 18 Nov 2025 further signals caution, driven by the stock’s underperformance and valuation concerns.
Technical Indicators and Trend Analysis
Technically, the stock’s position below all key moving averages suggests a sustained downtrend. The recent two-day consecutive fall was followed by a modest gain today, but the overall trend remains negative. This technical weakness is compounded by the stock’s underperformance relative to the sector and the broader market indices.
Investors monitoring the stock will note that while the Sensex is trading below its 50-day moving average, the 50DMA remains above the 200DMA, indicating a generally positive medium-term market trend. However, The Anup Engineering Ltd has not mirrored this broader market strength.

Summary of Key Financial and Market Data
The Anup Engineering Ltd’s current stock price of Rs.1704.35 represents a 52-week low, down 41.29% over the past year. The company’s Mojo Score of 43.0 and a Sell grade reflect the challenges faced in valuation and price performance. Despite a strong ROE of 15.99% and low leverage, the stock trades at a premium valuation with an enterprise value to capital employed ratio of 4.6, which has not been supported by profit growth.
Recent quarterly sales figures and dividend payments remain positive, with net sales at Rs.232.28 crores and a dividend payout ratio of 29.14%. However, these fundamentals have not translated into stock price strength amid broader market dynamics and sector-specific pressures.
The stock’s technical indicators and relative underperformance compared to the Sensex and BSE500 indices highlight the challenges faced by The Anup Engineering Ltd in regaining investor confidence and market momentum.
