The stock opened with a substantial loss of 8.28% and reached an intraday low of Rs 546.25, reflecting a bearish trend.
In the broader market context, the Sensex has shown resilience after a gap down opening, recovering 902.97 points from an initial drop of 3,914.75 points.

With a strong institutional holding of 56.59%, Hindalco continues to maintain a solid market position amidst current fluctuations.
