Technical View (based on your plan)
- Strong Support ~₹200: Price has reacted around the ₹185–₹205 zone multiple times in the last year; using ₹200 as an invalidation level is logical for risk control. Moneycontrol
- Weekly Trendline Break & Sustain: The stock spiked ~20% today to ~₹243–₹244, confirming a breakout attempt; sustaining above ₹240 improves odds for follow-through. Equitymaster
- Upside Room: Above ₹250–₹260, room opens toward supply pockets near ₹300–₹330 and then ₹380–₹420; your swing-to-position targets of ₹550–₹650 (24–36 months) presume a cyclical recovery in volumes/margins.

Thesis—Bull & Risk Case (Concise)
Why it can work: High promoter ownership (74.78%), valuations below sector P/E, potential technical reversal after a steep drawdown, and medium-term sector demand tailwinds. ScreenerMoneycontrolIBEF
Main risks: Small-cap liquidity & volatility; execution slippage amid recent revenue and profit declines; commodity spread risk; any breakdown below ₹200 invalidates the near-term bullish structure. Business Standard
