Ashok Leyland: Breakout or Bull Trap?

238
Ashok Leyland has broken the ₹191.42 resistance and is now trading around ₹192–193.
Technically it looks like a breakout — but in context, this move looks suspect.

Why this may be a false breakout:

Breakout happened in a premium valuation zone
(P/E ~34.8 | P/B ~9.0)

Growth has decelerated (EPS ~25%)

High debt (D/E ~4) → ROE inflated, ROCE weak

No strong range + volume expansion candle

Structure read:
Price is still hovering just above the old resistance band — classic bull-trap behavior.
