Why is JP Power Ven. falling/rising?

As of 07-Aug, Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd is experiencing a decline in its stock price, currently at 18.94, reflecting a decrease of 0.15 or 0.79%. The stock has been underperforming, having fallen consecutively for the last seven days, resulting in a total decline of 11.87% during this period. Additionally, the stock's performance over the past week shows a significant drop of 9.90%, while its one-month performance is down 16.42%. Despite a healthy long-term growth rate in operating profit of 20.50% and an attractive valuation compared to peers, the stock has faced challenges, including a 51.3% drop in profits over the past year, contributing to its recent price movement.
In the broader market context, the stock's short-term performance has notably underperformed against the benchmark, with the Sensex declining only 0.69% over the same week. While the stock has shown strong long-term growth, outperforming the BSE500 over three years, one year, and three months, the recent decline in investor participation, evidenced by a 30.01% drop in delivery volume, raises concerns about liquidity and market interest. Overall, the combination of recent profit declines and underperformance relative to the benchmark has led to the stock's current downward trend.
