Why is Eveready Inds. falling/rising?

As of 28-Aug, Eveready Industries India Ltd is experiencing a slight increase in its stock price, currently at 417.10, with a change of 0.1, representing a 0.02% rise. The stock's performance today is in line with its sector, although it is trading higher than the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, while being lower than the 5-day and 20-day moving averages. Despite a recent decline in investor participation, with delivery volume falling by 61.09% against the 5-day average, the company has shown strong management efficiency with a high return on capital employed (ROCE) of 18.23%. Positive results over the last nine consecutive quarters, including a 24.42% growth in profit after tax, contribute to a favorable outlook, although the stock has generated a negative return of -11.54% over the past year despite a 25.2% increase in profits.
In the broader market context, the stock's short-term return over the past week is -5.01%, which is significantly worse than the benchmark Sensex's decline of -2.34%. However, over the year-to-date, Eveready has outperformed the Sensex with a return of +6.24% compared to the benchmark's +2.48%. While the stock's long-term growth prospects appear limited, with net sales and operating profit growing at annual rates of only 3.49% and 3.13% respectively over the last five years, its attractive valuation relative to peers and consistent profit growth may provide some support for its current price movement.
