As of 22-Jul, NELCO Ltd's stock price is 876.40, up 0.5%, but it has underperformed its sector and is trading below key moving averages.

As of 22-Jul, NELCO Ltd's stock price is currently at 876.40, reflecting an increase of 4.4, or 0.5%. The stock has been gaining for the last two days, with a total return of 1.58% during this period. However, it has underperformed its sector by 0.29% today and is trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages. Additionally, the stock has experienced a significant decline in delivery volume, which fell by 62.97% compared to the 5-day average. Despite a strong ability to service debt indicated by a low Debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.01 times, the company has shown poor long-term growth, with operating profit declining at an annual rate of -11.27% over the last five years. Recent negative results, including a 49.4% drop in profit before tax and a 24.4% decrease in profit after tax compared to previous quarters, further contribute to the stock's challenges.

In the broader market context, NELCO's performance over the past week shows a decline of 0.57%, which is slightly worse than the Sensex's decline of 0.47%. Year-to-date, NELCO has significantly underperformed the benchmark, with a decline of 30.72% compared to the Sensex's increase of 5.18%. While the stock has generated a return of 10.17% over the past year, its profits have fallen dramatically by 69.9%, indicating underlying issues that may deter investor confidence. The lack of domestic mutual fund investment, which stands at 0%, suggests that institutional investors may not be comfortable with the stock's current valuation or business outlook, further impacting its market performance.
