31 December 2025: Intraday Surge to Rs.149.70 Spurs Outperformance
On the final trading day of 2025, Thomas Cook (India) Ltd delivered a remarkable intraday performance, surging 7.02% to touch a high of Rs.149.70. The stock closed at Rs.148.80, up 6.51% from the previous close, significantly outperforming the Sensex which gained 0.83% to 37,443.41. This strong rally was accompanied by a sharp increase in volume to 43,718 shares, indicating robust buying interest.
The stock’s price action surpassed its 5-day and 20-day moving averages, signalling short-term positive momentum. However, it remained below longer-term averages, reflecting ongoing resistance in the broader trend. The outperformance relative to the Tour, Travel Related Services sector and the Sensex highlighted the stock’s resilience amid a positive market environment.
1 January 2026: Mixed Technical Signals Amid Continued Momentum
Thomas Cook maintained its upward momentum into the first trading day of 2026, closing marginally higher at Rs.149.00, a 0.13% gain. The stock traded within a range of Rs.139.75 to Rs.149.70, closing near the day’s high with volume of 34,153 shares. This contrasted with the Sensex’s modest 0.14% gain to 37,497.10, underscoring relative strength in the stock.
Despite the positive price movement, technical indicators presented a mixed picture. The MACD remained bearish on the weekly chart, while volume-based metrics such as On-Balance Volume suggested mild accumulation. Moving averages and Bollinger Bands indicated elevated volatility and ongoing selling pressure, signalling a cautious outlook despite short-term gains.

2 January 2026: Profit Taking Leads to Slight Pullback
The week concluded with a slight pullback as Thomas Cook closed at Rs.145.65, down 2.25% on the day. Volume remained elevated at 33,368 shares. Meanwhile, the Sensex advanced 0.81% to 37,799.57, indicating broader market strength despite the stock’s retreat.
This decline followed the strong gains earlier in the week and may reflect profit-taking after the sharp rally on 31 December and 1 January. The stock’s weekly gain of 1.92% nonetheless outpaced the Sensex’s 1.35% rise, marking a relative outperformance for the period.

Cautionary Notes: Despite short-term momentum, technical indicators remain mixed.

Conclusion
Thomas Cook (India) Ltd’s week was characterised by a notable intraday rally and overall modest gains, supported by increased trading volumes and relative outperformance versus the Sensex. However, the mixed technical signals and persistent longer-term underperformance counsel a cautious approach. The stock appears to be in a transitional phase, with short-term momentum tempered by broader bearish trends. Investors should monitor evolving technical indicators and volume patterns closely to assess whether the recent strength can be sustained or if further consolidation lies ahead.
