Balkrishna Paper Mills has experienced significant volatility today, reaching a new 52-week low of Rs. 15.11. This marks a notable decline, as the stock has underperformed its sector by 14.54% and has seen a consecutive drop over the past two days, totaling a 16.15% decrease in returns. The stock opened with a substantial loss of 15.59% and has remained at this price throughout the trading session. In terms of moving averages, Balkrishna Paper Mills is currently trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, indicating a bearish trend. Over the past year, the stock has declined by 27.39%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's performance of 10.07%. The company faces challenges, including a negative book value and a high debt-to-equity ratio, which contribute to its weak long-term fundamental strength.
