Neelamalai Agro Industries, a microcap player in the tea and coffee industry, has experienced significant volatility today, hitting a new 52-week low of Rs. 3116. This decline marks a 9.87% drop over the past three days, with the stock underperforming its sector by 1.55%. Today's trading saw an intraday low of Rs. 3116, reflecting a 5.58% decrease.
The company's performance over the past year has been challenging, with a return of -16.10%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's modest gain of 0.46%.

The company's debtors turnover ratio is at its lowest, and net sales have fallen by 6.8% compared to the previous quarter. Overall, Neelamalai Agro Industries continues to face significant challenges in the current market landscape.
