Why is Vistar Amar falling/rising?

As of 21-Aug, Vistar Amar Ltd's stock price is currently at Rs 127.00, reflecting a decline of Rs 2.9 or 2.23%. The stock has underperformed its sector today by 2.24%, reaching an intraday low of Rs 126.45. Over the past week, the stock has decreased by 3.71%, while its performance over the last month shows a slight decline of 0.78%. Despite a year-to-date increase of 5.57%, the stock has faced significant challenges, with a one-year return of -22.26% and a three-year return of -45.66%. The recent positive financial results declared in June 2025, showing the highest quarterly PBDIT, PBT, and PAT, have not been sufficient to counteract the overall weak long-term fundamentals, including a -33.00% CAGR growth in operating profits and a negative return on equity of -2.7.
In the broader market context, Vistar Amar Ltd's performance has lagged behind the benchmark Sensex, which has gained 1.74% over the past week and 4.94% year-to-date. The stock's consistent underperformance against the benchmark over the last three years, coupled with a significant drop in investor participation—evidenced by a 74.12% decrease in delivery volume—indicates a lack of confidence among investors. Additionally, the stock's premium valuation compared to peers and the substantial decline in profits over the past year further contribute to its downward trajectory.
