85 out of 100 — Strengthening

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

PeriodShare price changeBetter than … of 1,910 stocks
Last 12 months+51.4%86%
Last 6 months+49.4%90%
Last 3 months+1.7%71%
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 Rane (Madras): 0.4 × 86 + 0.4 × 90 + 0.2 × 71 = 85.

Strengthening is 70 and above, Steady 40 to 70, Cooling below 40. Scores are recalculated every night after the market closes.
