16out of 100

Momentum score · price trend

16 out of 100 — Cooling

Over the past year its share price has done worse than most of the stocks we track.

PeriodShare price changeBetter than … of 1,910 stocks
Last 12 months−16.8%41%
Last 6 months−21.4%16%
Last 3 months−6.0%51%

The price is 28.8% below its all-time high of ₹730.4 (11 May 2026). Stocks more than 20% below their peak have their score halved, so 33 became 16.

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 Nava Ltd: 0.4 × 41 + 0.4 × 16 + 0.2 × 51 = 33, halved to 16 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.
