23 February: Strong Gap Up and Upper Circuit Triggered
Ujaas Energy Ltd opened sharply higher at Rs.192.20 on 23 February 2026, marking a 5.00% gain from the previous close. This gap up reflected robust positive sentiment, with the stock outperforming the Sensex’s 0.39% gain and the power sector’s modest 0.76% rise. The stock hit its upper circuit limit at Rs.187.99 during the session, triggering a regulatory freeze on further price increases. Despite the circuit hit, the stock closed near the upper band, indicating strong buying interest. However, the total traded volume was relatively low at 1,532 shares, suggesting the rally was driven by limited liquidity and concentrated demand.
Technically, the stock was trading above all key moving averages, supported by bullish momentum indicators such as MACD and On-Balance Volume. The elevated beta of 1.35 signalled heightened volatility, consistent with the intraday price swings observed. The MarketsMOJO rating remained cautious with a Mojo Score of 31.0 and a Sell grade, reflecting underlying fundamental concerns despite the technical strength.

24 February: Continued Buying Momentum Amid Market Weakness
On 24 February, Ujaas Energy extended its gains, closing at Rs.201.45, a 4.81% increase from the previous day’s close. This rise occurred despite the Sensex declining by 0.78%, highlighting the stock’s relative strength. The trading volume surged significantly to 26,290 shares, indicating increased investor participation. The stock’s ability to rally amid broader market weakness suggested sustained buying interest and positive sentiment around company-specific developments or sector rotation.
Technically, the stock remained above all major moving averages, reinforcing the bullish trend. However, the MarketsMOJO rating continued to reflect caution with a Sell grade, signalling that fundamental risks or valuation concerns persisted despite the price strength.
25 February: Upper Circuit Hit Again on Strong Delivery Volumes
Ujaas Energy Ltd hit the upper circuit price limit once more on 25 February, closing at Rs.206.67, a 5.00% gain for the day. The stock opened with a 3.64% gap up and traded within a range of Rs.198.20 to Rs.206.67. Delivery volumes surged to 39,990 shares, a 267.6% increase over the five-day average, signalling strong investor conviction and rising participation. The total traded volume was moderate at approximately 24,798 shares, with a turnover of ₹0.51 crore.
This price action demonstrated the stock’s robust technical momentum, outperforming the power sector which declined by 0.71% and the Sensex which gained 0.57%. Despite the rally, the MarketsMOJO Mojo Score remained at 31.0 with a Sell grade, reflecting a cautious stance amid the stock’s small-cap status and liquidity constraints. The regulatory freeze due to the upper circuit hit left unfilled demand, indicating potential for further price moves once trading resumes.

26 February: Sharp Reversal and Lower Circuit Hit Amid Heavy Selling
The stock reversed sharply on 26 February, hitting its lower circuit limit at Rs.179.35, a 4.27% decline from the previous close. The session was marked by intense selling pressure, with the stock opening down 2.26% and trading within a volatile range of Rs.188.40 to Rs.182.73. The lower circuit triggered a regulatory freeze, halting further declines for the day. Total traded volume was 3,755 shares, with a turnover of ₹0.20 crore, indicating moderate liquidity amid the sell-off.
This decline contrasted with the power sector’s 0.80% gain and the Sensex’s 0.24% rise, highlighting Ujaas Energy’s underperformance. Delivery volumes surged to 42,660 shares on 25 February, a 130.73% increase over the five-day average, suggesting heightened investor activity possibly driven by panic selling or repositioning. Despite the sharp fall, the stock remained above key moving averages, indicating the correction may be temporary rather than a sustained downtrend.
The MarketsMOJO Mojo Score remained at 31.0 with a Sell grade, reflecting ongoing caution amid volatility and fundamental uncertainties. Investors should monitor the stock closely for signs of stabilisation or further downside risk.

Key Takeaways from the Week
Ujaas Energy Ltd’s week was characterised by significant volatility, with early strong gains followed by sharp reversals. The stock outperformed the Sensex on 23 and 24 February, driven by robust buying interest and technical momentum, including two upper circuit hits. However, the rally was accompanied by relatively low traded volumes initially, suggesting limited liquidity and concentrated demand.
The surge in delivery volumes on 24 and 25 February indicated growing investor participation, yet the stock’s small-cap status and modest turnover imply susceptibility to sharp price swings. The lower circuit hit on 26 February reflected profit booking or panic selling, contrasting with sector and market gains, and signalling caution.
Despite the week’s price decline of 2.02%, Ujaas Energy remained above key moving averages, suggesting the longer-term technical trend is intact. The MarketsMOJO Mojo Score of 31.0 and Sell grade throughout the week highlight persistent fundamental concerns and the need for prudence. Investors should closely monitor volume trends, sector developments, and company announcements to gauge the stock’s next directional move.
Conclusion
The week ending 27 February 2026 for Ujaas Energy Ltd was marked by a volatile trading pattern, with early optimism giving way to profit taking and selling pressure. The stock’s ability to hit upper circuits twice demonstrated strong technical momentum and investor interest, but the subsequent lower circuit hit underscored the risks inherent in its small-cap profile and elevated beta.
While the stock outperformed the Sensex in the initial sessions, the overall weekly decline of 2.02% and the cautious Mojo rating suggest that investors should adopt a measured approach. The technical indicators remain supportive in the medium term, but the immediate outlook is clouded by liquidity constraints and market volatility. Close attention to upcoming sector news and company fundamentals will be essential for navigating the stock’s evolving trajectory.
