Momentum score · price trend
36 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 | +23.2% | 75% |
| Last 6 months | +12.4% | 69% |
| Last 3 months | +7.3% | 76% |
The price is 34.1% below its all-time high of ₹1,020.55 (18 Oct 2024). Stocks more than 20% below their peak have their score halved, so 73 became 36.
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 Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd: 0.4 × 75 + 0.4 × 69 + 0.2 × 76 = 73, halved to 36 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.
