Just Dial share price slips nearly 3% in trade today; time to buy the dip?
Just Dial share price: Just Dial share price came under pressure on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, with the stock dropping up to 2.80 per cent to hit an intraday low of ₹914.70 per share. At 10:28 AM, Just Dial share price was down 2.76 per cent to hit an intraday low of ₹915.15 per share. In comparison, BSE Sensex was trading 0.15 per cent lower at 82,443.38 levels. CATCH STOCK MARKET LATEST UPDATES TODAY LIVE Why did Just Dial share price fall today? Just Dial's share price came under pressure today despite the company reporting a healthy set of numbers for the June quarter (Q1FY26) as investors flocked to book profits, analysts said. 'The stock is under pressure due to profit booking following a decent Q1 performance,' said Kranthi Bathini, director of equity strategy at WealthMills Securities. He added, 'In the last three months, the stock has been consolidating and is yet to decisively cross its 200-day moving average. A decisive break above the ₹940 level could trigger an upward rally.' In Q1FY26, Just Dial posted a 13 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) increase in net profit to ₹160 crore, compared to ₹141 crore in Q1FY25. Revenue for the quarter rose 6.2 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹298 crore, up from ₹281 crore in the same quarter last year. At the operating level, Ebitda rose 7.2 per cent annually to ₹86.4 crore in Q1FY26, from ₹80.6 crore a year ago. The Ebitda margin also saw a slight improvement, expanding to 29 per cent from 28.7 per cent in Q1FY25. Echoing similar view, Ravi Singh, SVP of retail research at Religare Broking, said, 'Just Dial's Q1 result was in line with expectations, and today's decline from the ₹960 level is purely on account of profit booking.' He added, 'Fresh buying could emerge above ₹972, with an upside potential towards ₹1,050-1,100, provided investors manage risk with a 5 per cent stop-loss cap. The stock has also been trading with high volumes above the 20-day average in recent sessions, indicating near-term momentum if supported by price action. The overall outlook remains positive with a higher-lows formation.' Nuvama on Just Dial Just Dial (JD) reported Q1FY26 revenue of ₹298 crore, up 3 per cent Q-o-Q and 6.2 per cent Y-o-Y, broadly in line with Nuvama's estimate of ₹301 crore. However, Ebitda margin came in at 29 per cent, missing expectation of 30.2 per cent, primarily due to elevated employee costs and advertising expenses. Net profit stood at ₹160 crore, ahead of its ₹140 crore estimate, supported by higher other income. Paid campaigns grew modestly by 0.7 per cent Q-o-Q and 4.3 per cent Y-o-Y, while collections declined sharply by 19.2 per cent Q-o-Q, though up 0.6 per cent Y-o-Y. 'We are changing FY26E/27E EPS by +6.8 per cent/-4.3 per cent based on cuts to our growth and profitability expectations, with higher other income in near term lifting EPS in FY26E. Our DCF yields a target price (TP) of ₹1,280 (earlier ₹1,300). Maintain 'Buy' due to valuation support,' the brokerage added.

Technical Analysis: Bullish Signals Persist Despite Short-Term Price Correction On the technical side, PC Jeweller's 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands at 68.7. Typically, an RSI below 30 indicates an oversold condition, while a reading above 70 suggests the stock may be overbought.

At 10:51 AM, Nifty India Defence index was trading 1.45 per cent higher at 8,985.30 levels, while the benchmark Nifty50 was flat with a positive bias at 25,417.40.

The sharp rally came after the Defence Acquisition Council (DAC), headed by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, approved 10 major capital acquisition proposals on Thursday. The total value of these approvals is estimated at around ₹1.05 trillion, all through indigenous sources. These Acceptance of Necessity (AoN) approvals include procurement of Armoured Recovery Vehicles, an Electronic Warfare System, an Integrated Common Inventory Management System for the Tri-Services, and Surface-to-Air Missiles. The Ministry of Defence stated that the acquisitions aim to 'provide higher mobility, effective air defence, better supply chain management and augment the operational preparedness of the armed forces.' Ravi Singh, SVP of research at Religare Broking, commented, 'The DAC has taken another important step toward boosting India's self-reliance in defence manufacturing. The government's continued focus on manufacturing, along with rising defence budget allocations, is providing strong support to the sector. This creates long-term growth visibility for domestic defence companies, especially those with strong execution in aerospace, electronics, and missile systems.' Defence sector lift-off According to a note by InCred Equities dated June 23, India's defence sector is on the cusp of major transformation, driven by a record-high allocation of ₹6.81 trillion in the 2025–26 Union Budget, accounting for 13 per cent of total central expenditure. Over the past decade, defence spending has grown at a compound annual rate of 9 percent, underscoring a steady rise in investment. A notable 13 per cent increase in capital outlay this year highlights the government's strong focus on modernisation, with funding directed towards advanced weaponry, naval ships, aircraft, research and development, and key border infrastructure. This combination of sustained budgetary support and increased capital investment not only enhances operational capabilities but also fuels domestic innovation and strategic self-reliance, paving the way for long-term technological advancement and structural growth in the sector, analysts at InCred Equities said. Investment strategy On investment strategy, Singh added that investors can consider a buy-on-dips approach, as defence stocks have shown strong upward momentum over the last 3–4 months. He recommends focusing on quality stocks such as BDL, BEL, and HAL, especially those with healthy order books, improving margins, and strong operating leverage. Meanwhile, InCred Equities highlighted HAL as a clear beneficiary of indigenisation, with robust order inflows and strong revenue visibility. BEL, too, remains a top pick with a solid pipeline, proven execution, and rising export potential.
