Why is KPT Industries falling/rising?

As of 17-Sep, KPT Industries Ltd is experiencing a slight increase in its stock price, currently at Rs 741.65, reflecting a change of 2.4 (0.32%) upwards. The stock has shown a positive performance over the past week with a return of +5.95%, although it has underperformed over the longer term, with a year-to-date decline of -23.93% and a one-year return of -35.68%. Today's trading saw the stock reach an intraday high of Rs 761.95, but it is trading below its longer-term moving averages, indicating some weakness. Additionally, there has been a notable decrease in investor participation, with delivery volume falling by -33.74% compared to the five-day average. Despite these challenges, the company boasts high management efficiency with a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 19.59% and is trading at a discount compared to its peers.
In the broader market context, KPT Industries' recent performance contrasts with the benchmark Sensex, which has gained +1.56% over the past week. While the stock's short-term return is positive, its longer-term performance remains concerning, especially given the significant decline over the past year compared to the market's slight negative return of -0.46%. The company's flat results in recent quarters, including a -27.11% fall in profit before tax and a -15.33% drop in net sales, further highlight the challenges it faces, contributing to a perception of underperformance relative to the broader market.
