On the reaction day the stock moved 6.8 pts less than Nifty Midcap 150 and 6.3 pts less than its Castings & Forgings peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Q2 FY27 sales rose to Rs 1,093.25 crore from Rs 1,029.67 crore, but the operating profit margin fell to 32.5% from 37.76%. Q2 PAT was Rs 249.73 crore versus Rs 277.44 crore. For H1 FY27, sales were Rs 2,246.49 crore and PAT Rs 550.84 crore. The order book was Rs 1,071 crore as of October 1, 2026. H1 capex was Rs 86 crore; installed capacity is 436,000 TPA.
The larger order book supports future sales, but weaker Q2 profitability may weigh on the share price until margins recover and orders become revenue.
