50out of 100

Momentum score · price trend

50 out of 100 — Steady

Over the past year its share price has moved roughly in the middle of the stocks we track.

PeriodShare price changeBetter than … of 1,910 stocks
Last 12 months−6.9%53%
Last 6 months−3.5%47%
Last 3 months−5.7%52%
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 UltraTech Cem.: 0.4 × 53 + 0.4 × 47 + 0.2 × 52 = 50.

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