Why is Kopran falling/rising?

As of 28-Jul, Kopran Ltd's stock price is currently at Rs 178.00, reflecting an increase of Rs 4.4 or 2.53%. Today's performance indicates that the stock has outperformed its sector by 2.45%, reaching an intraday high of Rs 181.05. Despite this positive movement, the stock has shown a decline of 31.35% over the past year and a 16.80% drop year-to-date. The company has a low Debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.00, suggesting a strong ability to service its debt, and it is trading at a discount compared to its peers. However, the stock's profitability has been declining, with a 24.3% drop in profits over the past year, which raises concerns about its long-term growth potential.
In the broader market context, Kopran's short-term return of 0.23% over the past week contrasts sharply with the Sensex, which has declined by 1.59% during the same period. While the stock's recent uptick may be encouraging, it is essential to consider its underperformance against the benchmark over longer periods, including a 4.07% decline over the past month and a significant underperformance over the last three years. The limited interest from domestic mutual funds, holding only 0.01% of the company, further indicates a lack of confidence in the stock's future prospects, contributing to its mixed performance in the market.
