Why is Nucleus Soft. falling/rising?

As of 25-Aug, Nucleus Software Exports Ltd is experiencing a decline in its stock price, currently at 1,041.70, which reflects a decrease of 2.8 points or 0.27%. The stock has underperformed its sector by 2.67% today and has been on a consecutive downward trend for the last two days, resulting in a total drop of 2.19%. Although the stock opened with a gain of 8.18% and reached an intraday high of Rs 1,129.95, it has shown high volatility with an intraday fluctuation of 6.71%. Over the past week, the stock has gained 4.07%, but it has underperformed over the last month and year, with returns of -0.79% and -24.45%, respectively. The company's financial performance has also been concerning, with a flat result in June and a significant decline in profit before tax and profit after tax compared to previous quarters.
In the broader market context, while the IT - Software sector has gained by 2.37%, Nucleus Software has struggled, reflecting a lack of investor confidence as evidenced by a 55.02% drop in delivery volume compared to the five-day average. The stock's long-term growth prospects appear poor, with net sales and operating profit growing at only 10.23% and 9.90% annually over the last five years. Additionally, despite a high return on equity of 18.29%, the stock is trading at a premium compared to its peers, and its significant underperformance against the BSE500 index, which fell by only 2.11% over the last year, further highlights the challenges facing the company.
