09 March 2026: New 52-Week and All-Time Low Amid Market Volatility

On 09 Mar 2026, Aptus Value Housing Finance India Ltd’s stock reached a fresh 52-week and all-time low of Rs.219.05, closing the day down 3.84%. This decline outpaced the Sensex’s 1.91% fall and the housing finance sector’s 2.95% drop, reflecting heightened selling pressure on the stock. The day’s volume was moderate at 76,283 shares, and the stock traded below all key moving averages, signalling persistent bearish momentum. This price action came amid a broader market sell-off, with the Sensex opening sharply lower and the INDIA VIX index hitting a 52-week high, indicating elevated volatility and investor caution.

10 March 2026: Strong Rebound on Heavy Volume

The stock rebounded sharply on 10 Mar 2026, gaining 4.79% to close at Rs.231.95 on a volume surge to 209,920 shares. This recovery outperformed the Sensex’s 1.30% gain, suggesting a short-term technical bounce following the prior day’s lows. The positive price movement was supported by renewed buying interest, possibly from institutional investors, who hold a significant 60.48% stake in the company. Despite this bounce, the stock remained below its key moving averages, indicating that the broader downtrend was intact.

Following the rebound, the stock corrected by 1.49% on 11 Mar 2026, closing at Rs.228.50 on lower volume of 74,941 shares.

12 March 2026: Heavy Volume Amid Slight Correction

On 12 Mar 2026, Aptus Value Housing Finance India Ltd’s stock declined marginally by 0.53% to Rs.227.30, despite a significant increase in volume to 478,087 shares.
