Against that, the stock is -2.7% on the day at ₹169.20, and has returned -4.0% over three months. It sits 20% below its 52-week high. The auto sector has moved -4.8% over the same period, so Ashok Leyland is running 0.8 points ahead of its peers.

For Ashok Leyland, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the auto peer set alongside it.
