While the Indian stock market faced sharp losses on Monday, January 19, one small-cap stock stood out with a surprising gain. Take Solutions closed 2% higher at ₹42.25 per share, breaking a two-day losing streak.
Sustained Bull Run Since March 2025
The company's shares have been on a remarkable upward journey since March 2025. They closed every single month after that in positive territory, making it nine consecutive months of gains.
October 2025 proved particularly spectacular with an 83% rally. November followed with a strong 43% surge. This consistent performance has resulted in a massive cumulative return of 500% over this period.
Impressive Price Movement
The stock price jumped from ₹6.70 to ₹40 during this bull run. For calendar year 2025, Take Solutions delivered a bumper gain of 148%. This marked its biggest annual return since 2015, when it achieved a 201.25% return.
The rally has been impressive across different timeframes too. It showed a 105% surge over three months and a 324% rally over six months. The momentum even carried into early 2026, with the stock advancing another 6%.
Retail Investors Hold Majority Stake
The sharp price increase has primarily benefited retail shareholders. According to Trendlyne shareholding data, they owned a dominant 94.81% stake in the company at the end of the September quarter.
More than 72,000 retail investors with capital up to ₹2 lakh held approximately 5.8 crore shares. This represents a 39.36% stake in the company. Those with capital exceeding ₹2 lakh owned about 15.43 lakh shares, accounting for a 1.04% stake.
Promoter Holdings and Historical Context
Promoters maintain a 5.2% stake in Take Solutions. This includes holdings by Srinivasan and Esyspro Infotech Limited, as per Trendlyne data.
Despite the strong recent performance, the stock still trades 86% below its record peak of ₹308.25 reached in 2018. Between 2018 and 2024, the stock experienced a prolonged sell-off that wiped out almost 90% of its value.
