Tuesday, 10 February: Technical Momentum Shift Spurs 5.13% Rally
Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals & Fertilizers Ltd witnessed a significant technical momentum shift on 10 February, moving from a strongly bearish to a mildly bearish trend. The stock surged 5.13% to close at Rs.54.07 on robust volume of 21,592 shares, outperforming the Sensex’s 0.25% gain. This shift was underpinned by a weekly MACD crossover signalling early positive momentum, despite longer-term bearish indicators remaining intact.
The stock’s 52-week range of Rs.41.50 to Rs.94.00 highlights its volatility, and this technical improvement suggested easing selling pressure.

The daily moving averages continued to reflect a mildly bearish stance, cautioning investors about the sustainability of the rally.

Wednesday, 11 February: Continued Gains Amid Mixed Technical Signals
The stock extended its gains by 1.37% to close at Rs.54.81 on relatively lower volume of 12,031 shares. The Sensex also advanced modestly by 0.13% to 37,256.72. The weekly MACD remained mildly bullish, supporting the positive momentum, while the monthly MACD and KST indicators continued to signal caution. The stock traded near the lower Bollinger Band on the weekly chart, suggesting potential volatility ahead.
Thursday, 12 February: Q3 FY26 Results Reveal Margin Pressures
Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals & Fertilizers Ltd reported its Q3 FY26 results, highlighting revenue growth overshadowed by margin pressures. Despite the top-line improvement, profitability was constrained, reflecting cost challenges in the commodity chemicals sector. The stock responded positively to the results, gaining 3.47% to Rs.56.71 on heavy volume of 46,576 shares, outperforming the Sensex which declined 0.56%.
This reaction suggests that investors may have priced in the margin concerns, focusing instead on the revenue growth and potential for operational improvements. However, the mixed fundamental signals reinforce the technical caution observed earlier in the week.

The stock closed the week at Rs.55.63, down 1.90% on volume of 16,923 shares, underperforming the Sensex’s 1.40% decline to 36,532.48. This pullback followed the strong gains earlier in the week and coincided with a broader market sell-off. The technical indicators remain mixed, with the weekly MACD bullish but monthly momentum still bearish, suggesting that the stock may consolidate before any sustained move.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: The stock’s 8.59% weekly gain significantly outpaced the Sensex’s 0.54% decline, reflecting strong relative strength. The technical momentum shift on 10 February, marked by a weekly MACD crossover, indicates easing selling pressure and potential for short-term recovery. The positive market reaction to Q3 FY26 results, despite margin pressures, suggests investor focus on revenue growth and operational prospects.
Cautionary Notes: The monthly MACD and KST indicators remain bearish, signalling that the longer-term downtrend is not yet broken. Margin pressures highlighted in the quarterly results may constrain profitability going forward. The stock’s position near the lower Bollinger Band and mixed RSI readings imply potential volatility and uncertain momentum. The Mojo Grade remains at Sell, reflecting ongoing caution despite recent improvements.
Overall, Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals & Fertilizers Ltd’s week was characterised by a tentative technical recovery and mixed fundamental signals. The stock’s outperformance amid a weakening Sensex underscores its relative resilience, but investors should remain alert to margin challenges and broader market volatility.
