16 February 2026: Fresh 52-Week Low at Rs.118.80 Amid Persistent Downtrend
Trident Texofab Ltd opened the week sharply lower at Rs.118.80, marking a new 52-week low and a 5.00% decline on the day. This drop extended a prolonged downtrend, with the stock recording losses for 20 consecutive sessions and a cumulative 20-day return of -56.55%. The decline was starkly contrasted by the Sensex’s 0.70% gain to 36,787.89, highlighting the stock’s underperformance relative to the broader market. The stock traded below all key moving averages, signalling sustained bearish momentum. Despite a modest increase in profits over the past year, concerns over elevated leverage, with a Debt to EBITDA ratio of 6.83 times, and flat sales growth weighed heavily on investor sentiment.

The stock underperformed the Garments & Apparels sector by 4.97%, while the Sensex managed a marginal 0.32% gain to 36,904.38. Technical indicators remained weak, with the share price below all major moving averages. The company’s fundamental challenges persisted, including a modest long-term ROCE of 6.88% and subdued net sales of Rs.25.74 crores in the December 2025 quarter.

The stock’s technical position remained fragile, trading below all key moving averages. Despite a 122.5% increase in profits over the past year, the lack of sales growth and high leverage continued to dampen market confidence.

Technical indicators remained negative, with the stock trading below all major moving averages.

On the final trading day of the week, Trident Texofab Ltd’s share price fell further to Rs.96.90, down 4.95%, marking the lowest 52-week price for the period and a cumulative 21-day loss of 62.16%.

The company’s P/E ratio stood at 45.54, with a PEG ratio of 0.92, signalling improved price attractiveness relative to earnings growth. The price-to-book value ratio of 2.69 also suggested a moderate premium, while the enterprise value to capital employed ratio declined to 2.1, indicating a discount relative to peers.

Key Takeaways: Persistent Weakness Amid Valuation Shifts
Trident Texofab Ltd’s share price decline of 22.51% over the week starkly contrasts with the Sensex’s 0.39% gain, underscoring the stock’s significant underperformance. The continuous 21-day losing streak and fresh 52-week lows each day highlight sustained selling pressure and bearish technical signals. Elevated leverage, with a Debt to EBITDA ratio of 6.83 times, and modest profitability metrics such as a long-term ROCE of 6.88% have contributed to cautious market sentiment.
Despite these challenges, valuation metrics have shifted from fair to attractive, with a PEG ratio below 1 and a moderate price-to-book value ratio. This suggests that the stock’s price now offers better value relative to earnings growth and net asset base compared to historical levels and sector peers. However, the company’s flat sales and modest returns on capital employed temper optimism.
The divergence between the stock’s performance and the broader market, which remained resilient, indicates company-specific issues dominate the price action. The downgrade to a Strong Sell rating by MarketsMOJO, with a Mojo Score of 23.0, reflects the cautious stance of analysts amid ongoing fundamental and technical headwinds.
Conclusion: A Challenging Week Marked by Steep Declines and Mixed Signals
Trident Texofab Ltd’s week from 16 to 20 February 2026 was characterised by a relentless decline in share price, hitting new 52-week lows daily and culminating in a 22.51% weekly loss. The stock’s underperformance relative to the Sensex and its sector peers reflects persistent fundamental weaknesses, including high leverage, flat sales growth, and modest profitability. Technical indicators remain firmly bearish, with the stock trading below all key moving averages and enduring a 21-day losing streak.
Nonetheless, the recent shift in valuation parameters to an attractive rating introduces a nuanced perspective, suggesting the stock may now be priced more favourably relative to its earnings growth potential. This valuation improvement, however, has yet to translate into positive price momentum or a reversal of the downtrend.
Investors and market participants should continue to monitor the company’s operational performance, leverage management, and sector dynamics closely. The current Strong Sell rating and cautious market sentiment highlight the risks involved, while the valuation shift may offer a potential entry point for those with a higher risk tolerance and a longer-term investment horizon.
