24 out of 100 — Cooling
Over the past year its share price has done worse than most of the stocks we track.
| Period | Share price change | Better than … of 1,910 stocks |
|---|---|---|
| Last 12 months | +7.0% | 66% |
| Last 6 months | −7.9% | 41% |
| Last 3 months | −18.9% | 22% |
The price is 47.1% below its all-time high of ₹2,724.9 (4 Feb 2022). Stocks more than 20% below their peak have their score halved, so 47 became 24.
How we calculate it
“Better than 30%” means that over that period the share price did better than 30 out of every 100 stocks we track (1,910 Indian companies worth ₹500 Cr or more, with at least a year of prices).
The score weighs the longer periods more: 40% × 12-month + 40% × 6-month + 20% × 3-month. For Ambika Cotton: 0.4 × 66 + 0.4 × 41 + 0.2 × 22 = 47, halved to 24 because the price is more than 20% below its all-time high.
Strengthening is 70 and above, Steady 40 to 70, Cooling below 40. Scores are recalculated every night after the market closes.
