Daily technical trend read

Neutral

Trend is undirectional — long-term uptrend intact. RSI 39.

  • Price above SMA200 (long-term uptrend) but mid-term MAs not aligned.
  • SMA20 falling (~7.7% over last month) — short-term momentum negative.
  • RSI(14) at 39 — sideways, no extreme reading.
  • MACD below signal but histogram contracting — bearish momentum easing.
  • 32% off 52W high · 50% above 52W low.

Mechanical read from the price + indicator series above. Not a recommendation — technical setups can reverse without warning, especially around earnings and macro events.

Sector valuation model

Cyclical valuation: normalized earnings, not just trailing PE

Cyclical companies can look cheapest near peak profits, so IndiaPulse flags value-trap risk separately.

Trust Score
72Healthy Trust · low confidenceTrust Lite

Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.

Healthy Trust: Claim history is still being built. It ranks around the 69th percentile of the scored universe and 49th percentile within Chemicals. Main check: promoter alignment is weak at 47/100.

Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter holding is 56.6%. Key concern: Promoters have pledged 43.5% of holding.

How to read this Trust Score

Healthy Trust · low confidence
What it measures
Reliability of management and financial delivery, using financial behaviour only.
Confidence
Treat this as an early read until more concalls and outcomes are matched.
Investor use
Acceptable, but check the weakest sub-score before increasing exposure.

Read Trust alongside U-Score, result consistency, and technical trend. A cheap stock with weak Trust needs a larger margin of safety; a high Trust score does not make an expensive stock attractive by itself.

Forensic breakdown

Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.

Trust positives

  • Promoter holding is 56.6%.
  • Promoter holding increased 3.2%.
  • 5 years of positive FCF.
  • ROCE is 22.7%.

Trust risks

  • Promoters have pledged 43.5% of holding.

Trust Lite uses financial behaviour only. Prefer claim-tested Trust when enough concall claims have later outcomes.
