Polycab India closed little changed on 3 Sep 2026
A third straight down-day ended in a near-flat close — the slide paused, but on lighter volume at 0.7x the 20-day norm, suggesting little conviction either way. The close sits at the very bottom of its Bollinger Band, a positioning that has historically preceded either stabilization or an acceleration of the existing drift. Momentum readings are uniformly soft: RSI in the low 40s, a negative MACD histogram, and Stochastic near oversold, while ADX around 12 confirms no established trend is in force. Price remains about 4% below the 50-day average but holds a comfortable margin above the 200-day, keeping the longer-term structure intact even as the three-week decline leaves the stock roughly 13% off its 52-week high. The session reads as a pause within a mild downtrend rather than a turning point — sellers have pressed, but buyers have not yet shown up in force. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
The session
Polycab India traded between ₹8,787.00 and ₹8,930.00 through the session and closed in the lower part of that range, at ₹8,807.50. 2,02,650 shares changed hands, 0.7× the 20-day average and therefore below normal participation.
Trend structure
The close sits above the 200-day average and below the 20-day and 50-day — a mixed structure rather than a single-direction one. The 200-day average stands at ₹8,305.91, with the close above it. ADX (14) reads 12.4, which describes no trend of any strength — a ranging market by this measure.
Momentum
The momentum gauges disagree with each other, which is the usual reading in a market without a clear direction. RSI (14) is 40.8, between the conventional oversold and overbought thresholds. The MACD histogram is negative, describing the shorter average's position relative to the longer one rather than anything about the next session.
Volatility and range
Average true range over 14 sessions is ₹219.55, or 2.49% of price — that is the size of a typical day for this stock recently, and it is the yardstick that makes today's move large or ordinary. The 20-day volatility band ran from ₹8,791.39 to ₹9,460.11, and the close sat in the lower fifth of the band.
The year so far
Over the past year the stock has traded between ₹6,663.00 and ₹10,126.00. The close is 13.02% below the 52-week high. It is 32.19% above the 52-week low. Across five sessions the change is 2.99% and across twenty it is 5.45% — the two horizons agree in direction.
Fundamentals as reported
Market capitalisation is 1,33,598 crore, in the Industrials sector (Electrical Equipment & Parts). On the reported figures it carries a price-to-earnings ratio of 47.3 and a price-to-book ratio of 11.0. These are ratios as reported, not a judgement about whether they are justified. The same filing set reports return on equity of 25.55%, a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.7, a dividend yield of 0.53%.
How often our range has been right
This page publishes a 1-day range, not a price call, and the range is scored against what actually happened. Across 288 resolved 1-day ranges for this stock, the close landed inside the 20.0% range 79.51% of the time. Measured against a naive benchmark over the same window, the range scored better than that benchmark. A number below the nominal rate means the ranges have been too narrow, and a number above it means they have been too wide; both are visible here rather than only in an internal report.
