Momentum score · price trend
Over the past year its share price has moved roughly in the middle of the stocks we track.
| Period | Share price change | Better than … of 1,874 stocks |
|---|---|---|
| Last 12 months | +12.1% | 65% |
| Last 6 months | +9.8% | 43% |
| Last 3 months | −9.6% | 36% |
“Better than 30%” means that over that period the share price did better than 30 out of every 100 stocks we track (1,874 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 Nestle India: 0.4 × 65 + 0.4 × 43 + 0.2 × 36 = 50.
Strengthening is 70 and above, Steady 40 to 70, Cooling below 40. Scores are recalculated every night after the market closes.
