The stock’s decline was in line with the Sensex’s 0.49% fall to 36,650.97 points, reflecting a cautious market mood. Trading volume was moderate at 42,485 shares. The sector faced pressure from broader energy market concerns, setting a subdued tone for the week ahead.

The stock fell sharply by 2.26% to Rs.532.85, touching a fresh 52-week low intraday at Rs.530.05. This decline coincided with a steep 1.82% drop in the Sensex to 35,984.65 points and a 2.1% sectoral fall, signalling widespread selling pressure.

Wednesday, 21 January 2026: Continued Downtrend and New 52-Week Low at Rs.523
The downtrend persisted with the stock closing at Rs.528.05, down 0.90%. Intraday, it reached a new 52-week low of Rs.523. This marked six consecutive days of decline, with a cumulative loss of 4.77%. The Sensex showed resilience, closing 0.18% higher at 35,815.26 points, but the stock underperformed its sector by 2.21%. Elevated leverage and slower debtor turnover ratios continued to weigh on sentiment. Despite a strong ROCE of 20.29% and healthy net sales growth of 28.39% annually, these operational positives failed to arrest the slide.
Thursday, 22 January 2026: Temporary Rebound on Positive Market Sentiment
Adani Total Gas Ltd bucked the trend with a 3.85% gain to Rs.548.40, recovering some losses amid a 0.76% Sensex rally to 36,088.66 points. The volume was relatively low at 38,896 shares, suggesting cautious buying. This rebound was short-lived, as technical indicators remained bearish with the stock still below all major moving averages. The positive market cues provided a brief respite but did not signal a sustained reversal.
Friday, 23 January 2026: Sharp Decline to Rs.517.10 Amid Heavy Selling Pressure
The stock plunged 5.71% to close at Rs.517.10, hitting a new 52-week low intraday at Rs.510.7. This was the steepest single-day fall of the week, accompanied by a surge in volume to 296,428 shares. The Sensex also declined by 1.33% to 35,609.90 points, but Adani Total Gas Ltd underperformed its sector by 4.78%. The company’s Q3 FY26 results revealed margin compression overshadowing revenue growth, further dampening investor confidence. The debt-to-equity ratio rose to 0.45 times, and operating profit interest coverage tightened to 7.51 times, signalling financial strain. Domestic mutual funds maintained a modest 0.52% holding, reflecting limited institutional support.
