The read

written from the numbers on this page
The evidence leans constructive5 supporting, 2 against, 0 worth knowing

Supporting

  • trading 0% above its 200-day average
  • up 16% over twelve months
  • 6 independent kinds of evidence agree today, which is uncommon
  • revenue grew 26% year on year in the quarter ending 2026-06-30
  • futures show a long buildup — the move is being funded by new positions

Against

  • 2 of the scans it matches have historically underperformed the market
  • priced at 42× earnings against an industry median of 18× — 137% above its peers

Worth knowing

  • nothing the data supports either way
JINDALSTEL sits in Manufacturing, Commodities, Metals — 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 1,126, its 200-day average; open interest reversing while price keeps going.
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

Valuation against its own history

500 sessions since 2024-09-06
18×
median 34×
61×
now 42×
JINDALSTEL trades at 42× trailing earnings, above its median of 34× over this window — 24% 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.

How to read this
Open interest is contracts still open, so a rise means new positions and a fall means positions closing. Combined with price direction that gives the state on the left. The walls are the strikes carrying the most open interest near expiry — levels other people are watching, not levels the price is obliged to respect. A future below spot means sellers are paying to be short.
