This decline marks a continued downward trend, with the stock underperforming its sector by 3.96% and recording a loss of 12.22% over the past four days. Currently, HDIL is trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, indicating a bearish technical outlook.
In the broader market context, the Sensex opened higher at 74,392.54, gaining 362.78 points (0.49%), but is currently trading at 74,085.36, reflecting a modest increase of 0.08%.

Financially, HDIL faces challenges, including a negative book value and a weak ability to service its debt, as evidenced by a low EBIT to interest ratio of 1.37. Although the company reported a remarkable growth in net sales of 3,330.95% in December 2024, its profitability remains low, with a return on equity of just 1.53%. The stock's technical indicators, including RSI and MACD, suggest a continued bearish trend, raising concerns about its future performance.
