The read

written from the numbers on this page
The evidence leans constructive8 supporting, 1 against, 0 worth knowing

Supporting

  • trading 22% above its 200-day average
  • sitting at 94% of its 52-week range, with little overhead supply from trapped buyers
  • up 47% over twelve months
  • matches closing in on a 52-week high, which has beaten the market by +0.51 points over 20 sessions across 27,282 past signals
  • 2 of the scans it matches have a positive measured record
  • 6 independent kinds of evidence agree today, which is uncommon
  • revenue grew 25% year on year in the quarter ending 2026-06-30
  • net margin has widened from 19.2% to 20.6% across four quarters

Against

  • 1 of the scans it matches has historically underperformed the market

Worth knowing

  • nothing the data supports either way
AJANTPHARM sits in Pharmaceuticals — worth checking whether the whole group is moving together or whether this name is doing it alone.
What would change this read: a close below 2,980, its 200-day average; a failure to hold the top of its 52-week range.
Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison. It is not a recommendation, no one has spoken to the company, and every claim above can be checked against a number further down this page.

What the scans say today

8 of 47 matched on 2026-08-21
AJANTPHARM matches 8 of the 47 scans today, across 6 different kinds of evidence. Three or more independent families agreeing is uncommon — it is the same test the shortlist on every page uses.

Valuation against its own history

500 sessions since 2024-09-06
33×
median 36×
47×
now 40×
AJANTPHARM trades at 40× trailing earnings, above its median of 36× over this window — 11% more expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.
