made on the morning of 2 May 2026 for Q4FY26Neutral — middle fifth of the companies reporting that week: rank 68 of 162, composite 55.7 out of 100. Moves 3.2% on results on average; rising broadly in line with the index.
A neutral read points neither way; this site tallies it as such in its track record.
How it went: went nowhere much -0.3% vs market over the ten sessions after 8 May 2026 — the post-mortem is further down.
A read is a position on a screen, not advice. The label says where the composite ranked, the tally says how often that has gone the way it pointed, and the choice is the reader's.

Going in
Up 16.1% over 30 sessions and 1.4% over 90 sessions. Sitting at the 28th percentile of its 52-week range. Closed above its 20-day average on 70% of the last 30 sessions. Delivery volumes have been running 1.0 points lower than the 90-day average. High expectations are already built into the price.
Normally tracks NIFTY 50 at a correlation of 0.18; over the last 30 sessions that has run at 0.71 (-3.1 standard deviations from its own norm). Over 30 sessions it has outrun what its beta of 0.57 to the index would account for, by 14.0 percentage points. The move is broadly in line with the market's own direction.
No clean sector benchmark for this stock, so sector-relative strength is not part of its score this week.
Where it sits
No clean sector benchmark over 90 sessions: +9.2% against the market. Up and right is ahead of both; down and left is behind both.
