Hindustan Unilever, a prominent player in the FMCG sector, has shown notable activity today, aligning its performance with the broader market trends. After experiencing two consecutive days of decline, the stock has gained traction, trading consistently at Rs 2510. This stability is reflected in its position above key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages.
With a market capitalization of Rs 5,88,619.60 crore, Hindustan Unilever maintains a P/E ratio of 56.59, slightly below the industry average of 56.75.
