Opening Price Surge and Intraday Performance
The stock's opening price of Rs 193.05 represented a notable premium over the prior session's close, signalling strong overnight buying interest. Throughout the trading day, Time Technoplast maintained this momentum, touching an intraday high at the same level as its opening price, effectively sustaining the initial gap. The day’s performance culminated in a 3.41% gain by market close, outperforming the Sensex’s 2.68% rise and exceeding the Plastic Products sector’s 2.4% advance.
Sector and Market Context
The Plastic Products - Industrial sector showed positive traction, with a 2.4% gain on the day, indicating a favourable environment for stocks within this space. Time Technoplast’s outperformance by 1.28% relative to its sector peers underscores its relative strength amid broader sectoral gains. However, the stock’s one-month performance remains subdued at -5.19%, lagging behind the Sensex’s -2.22% over the same period, suggesting recent volatility despite the current positive momentum.
Technical Indicators and Moving Averages
From a technical standpoint, Time Technoplast’s price currently trades above its 5-day, 20-day, and 50-day moving averages, signalling short to medium-term strength. However, it remains below the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, indicating that longer-term trends have yet to fully align with the recent upward movement. This mixed technical picture is further reflected in the daily moving averages rating, which remains bearish.
Weekly and monthly technical indicators present a nuanced view. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is bearish on a weekly basis and mildly bearish monthly, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows no clear signal. Bollinger Bands and the Know Sure Thing (KST) oscillator also suggest mild bearishness on monthly charts, with weekly readings more decisively bearish. Conversely, the Dow Theory indicates a mildly bullish weekly trend, though no clear monthly trend is established. On-Balance Volume (OBV) is mildly bearish weekly and neutral monthly, reflecting cautious volume dynamics.
Volatility and Beta Considerations
Time Technoplast is classified as a high beta stock, with an adjusted beta of 1.73 relative to the MIDCAP index. This elevated beta implies that the stock is more sensitive to market movements, typically experiencing larger price fluctuations than the broader market. The current gap up and sustained intraday strength align with this characteristic, as the stock reacts more sharply to positive catalysts and market sentiment shifts.

Market Capitalisation and Mojo Ratings
Time Technoplast holds a Market Cap Grade of 3, reflecting its mid-tier market capitalisation within its industry. The company’s overall Mojo Score stands at 50.0, categorised as a Hold rating. This represents a downgrade from its previous Buy grade, which was revised on 1 Dec 2025. The adjustment in rating indicates a more cautious stance based on recent performance and technical assessments, despite the current positive price action.
Gap-Up Sustainability and Potential Gap Fill
The 7.19% gap up at market open suggests a strong overnight catalyst or positive sentiment driving early demand. The stock’s ability to maintain this elevated level throughout the trading session, without significant retracement, points to sustained buying interest. However, given the mixed technical signals and the stock’s position below longer-term moving averages, there remains a possibility of a gap fill in subsequent sessions as the market digests the move.
Investors observing the stock should note the high beta nature, which may lead to amplified price swings in either direction. The current outperformance relative to the sector and Sensex is a positive sign, yet the one-month underperformance and bearish technical indicators on weekly and monthly charts counsel prudence.

Summary of Key Metrics
To summarise, Time Technoplast’s trading on 3 Feb 2026 was characterised by a strong gap up of 7.19%, outperforming its sector and the Sensex. The stock’s intraday high matched its opening price, indicating sustained momentum. Technical indicators present a mixed outlook, with short-term moving averages supporting the current strength, while longer-term averages and several oscillators remain cautious. The stock’s high beta status suggests heightened volatility, which has been evident in today’s price action.
Overall, the gap up reflects a positive market response, though the technical backdrop advises monitoring for potential retracements or consolidation. The downgrade in Mojo Grade to Hold from Buy earlier in December 2025 also signals a tempered outlook despite the recent price gains.
