Price chart

Close (to snapshot) Close (after) 50-day avg 200-day avg Support Resistance

Data note: Gabriel India absorbed its promoter group's automotive businesses under a scheme effective 22 May 2026 (appointed date 1 Apr 2026); about 3.36 crore new shares were allotted on 9 Jun 2026 (share count +23.4%) and a further 1.44 crore shares went to the promoter on 11 Sep 2026. No price adjustment applies. FY26 and earlier figures are pre-scheme, so per-share and growth comparisons across the scheme are not like-for-like. Financials use Screener's standalone figures because the consolidated history only starts in FY24.

Technical analysis — 50 points

Calculated by code from daily prices up to 29 Jul 2026. Standard formulas (RSI, MACD, ADX use Wilder smoothing).

How to read the tags. Each of the 50 points gets one tag. Bullish the reading was favourable. Bearish the reading was unfavourable. Neutral the reading was in a normal range, or gave no clear message. Caution a warning sign or an unusual reading that deserves a closer look. Point 50 counts the other 49 tags. The chart is called positive when bullish tags beat bearish ones by 5 or more, negative when bearish tags beat bullish ones by 5 or more, and mixed otherwise. Under each point you will see what reading earns which tag. Tags describe the data on the snapshot date. They are not signals to buy or sell. Full guide to all 100 points →
