NRL share price and analysis
National Refinery Limited (NRL) last traded at Rs 575.79 on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, where it rose 3.77% on the session of 29 October 2026. It was among the more heavily traded lines of the session at 2,260,762 shares, a turnover of Rs 1.3 billion. Over the past year the share has traded between Rs 276.36 and Rs 676.02, putting the current price in the upper part of that range.
The price is between its 20-day (613.58) and 50-day (563.14) moving averages, so the short-term trend is unresolved. The 14-day RSI is 46.9, a neutral reading. ADX at 36.2 indicates a trending market rather than a range.
The company is capitalised at roughly Rs 46.0 billion and is classified under Refinery. It trades on a price-to-earnings ratio of 2.8, meaning the market is paying about Rs 2.8 for every rupee of annual earnings. Earnings per share stand at Rs 77.09. A beta of 1.07 against the KSE-100 means the share has moved more sharply than the wider market over the past year.
NRL is among the smallest of the 4 Refinery companies we track by market value, at 4th. Its price-to-earnings ratio of 2.8 compares with the Refinery median of 2.9, putting it broadly in line with its sector. Sector medians are taken across the companies we hold fundamentals for and move as those are restated.
Our forecasting model currently reads NRL as strongly bullish over a short term horizon, at 45% confidence. The model is computed from the price and indicator history shown on this page. It does not read news, financial statements or management changes, and it is not a recommendation to buy or sell.
This summary is generated from the end-of-day prices and indicators shown on this page and is refreshed after each trading session. It describes the data; it is not a recommendation. See how we collect and check this data and our disclaimer.

NRL technical indicators — RSI, MACD & moving averages
Momentum and trend gauges for NRL after the session of 29 Oct 2026, each with a one-line reading of what the number means.
RSI (14)
RSI (Relative Strength Index)A momentum gauge from 0 to 100, usually over 14 days. Above 70 is called overbought and below 30 oversold, but in a strong trend RSI can stay there for weeks — it is not a buy or sell instruction. GlossaryNRL reads 46.9 — neutral (between 30 and 70). Above 70 is conventionally read as overbought, below 30 as oversold; dashed lines mark both.
MACD (12, 26, 9)
MACDThe 12-day exponential moving average minus the 26-day, with a 9-day signal line on top. A cross above the signal line means short-term momentum has turned up; it lags, and misfires in sideways markets. GlossaryNRL reads 0.665 — below its signal line: momentum fading. Bars show the gap between MACD and its signal line.

What this means: NRL scores 62 on a 0–100 check built only from the figures we hold for it — P/E and volatility. 50 is neutral; compare it within a sector, not across sectors. A dash in the table is a figure we do not hold for NRL; it adds nothing to the score rather than being guessed.

NRL — frequently asked questions
What is NRL's share price today?
National Refinery Limited (NRL) last traded at Rs 575.79 on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, up 3.77% on the session of 29 October 2026. The day's range was Rs 545.00 to Rs 579.56 on 2,260,762 shares. These are end-of-day figures published by the exchange, not a live trading feed.
What is the 52-week high and low for NRL on the PSX?
NRL has traded between Rs 276.36 and Rs 676.02 over the past twelve months on the Pakistan Stock Exchange. The range is computed from the end-of-day closes we hold for the stock and is refreshed after every session.
Is NRL Shariah-compliant on the PSX?
Yes. The Pakistan Stock Exchange lists NRL in its Shariah-screened KMI-30 and KMI All Share indices, which means the company passed the screening set with Meezan Bank at the last review — the business-activity test plus the financial ratio tests on interest-bearing debt, illiquid assets and non-compliant income. Screening is periodic, so a company can be dropped when a ratio breaks; check the current KMI index membership before relying on it.
Which PSX indices is NRL part of?
NRL is a constituent of the KSE All Share, KMI-30, KMI All Share and KSE-30. It is not in the KSE-100, the headline PSX benchmark. Index membership is taken from the exchange's own published listing for each session.
Is NRL expensive? What are its valuation ratios?
NRL trades on a price-to-earnings ratio of 2.8, so the market is paying about Rs 2.8 for each rupee of annual earnings and earnings per share of Rs 77.09. Ratios are only meaningful next to the rest of the sector — a low multiple that the whole sector shares is usually a sector problem rather than a bargain, which is why the sector page is linked from this one.
What is the model outlook for NRL?
Our model currently reads NRL as strongly bullish over a short term horizon, at 45% confidence. It is computed from this stock's own price and indicator history. It does not read news, financial statements or management changes, its graded record against the base rate is published on the page, and it is not investment advice.
