It is Monday, March 16, 2026, and the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) has just wrapped up another active trading session. Today’s focus remains heavily on Reliance Spinning Mills Limited (RSML), which continues to be one of the most talked-about scripts following its recent listing and subsequent price rally.
Below is a live market update and financial analysis of RSML as of today.
NEPSE Live Update: March 16, 2026

The broader market showed modest movement today, with the NEPSE Index gaining 4.45 points to close at 2,824.90. While the index saw a slight uptick of 0.15%, RSML stole the spotlight in the Manufacturing and Processing sector.
RSML Today’s Performance
| Metric | Value |
| Last Traded Price (LTP) | Rs 1,033.20 |
| Percentage Change | +10.00% (Upper Circuit) |
| Point Change | +93.90 |
| Volume (Shares Traded) | ~70 (Low float/high demand) |
| 52-Week High/Low | Rs 1,033.20 / Rs 300.00 |

Market Note: RSML has hit the Upper Circuit (10%) again today. Since its debut at a discounted opening range of Rs 300, the stock has been on a relentless “circuit-to-circuit” run as investors scramble to reach or exceed the original IPO book-building price of Rs 820.80.
Fundamental & Technical Analysis
1. The “Breakeven” Rally
Investors who were allotted shares in the IPO at Rs 820.80 (and institutional investors at Rs 912) faced initial paper losses when NEPSE rules capped the opening price at Rs 300. As of late last week, the stock finally crossed the breakeven point. Today’s jump to Rs 1,033.20 means IPO allottees are now officially in the green, seeing a profit of approximately 25.8% from their initial investment.
2. Financial Health (FY 082/83 Q2)
Based on the latest quarterly reports:
- Earnings Per Share (EPS): Stands at Rs 14.47 (TTM).
- Book Value per Share: Reported at Rs 490.54.
- Price-to-Book Ratio (P/B): Currently at 2.11, suggesting the market is pricing it at a premium to its net worth, typical for a leading manufacturer.
- P/E Ratio: At current prices, the P/E has stretched to 71.40, which is significantly higher than the industry average. This indicates the current rally is driven more by “price discovery” and demand-supply mismatch than immediate earnings.
3. Sector Sentiment
The Manufacturing and Processing sector saw a gain of 0.12% today. RSML is currently the primary driver of optimism in this sector, overshadowing older giants like HDL or UNL in terms of daily trading excitement.
Market Outlook
The “buy-side” demand for RSML remains overwhelming, with massive pending buy orders and almost no sellers. Technically, when a stock hits consecutive upper circuits with low volume, it indicates a liquidity lock.
- Bullish Case: If the momentum continues, the stock could test the Rs 1,200 level before seeing significant profit-booking.
- Risk Factor: The high P/E ratio and the fact that the stock has more than tripled from its opening price in just a few weeks suggest a correction might be looming once the “initial hype” settles.
