Shantai Industries Faces Intense Selling Pressure Amid Consecutive Losses

The company has experienced consecutive losses over the past two days, with a total decline of 9.89%. Today, the stock opened with a gap down of 5%, reaching an intraday low of Rs 74.34.
In terms of performance, Shantai Industries has underperformed the broader market, with a 1-day decline of 5.00% compared to the Sensex's marginal drop of 0.04%. Over the past week, the stock has gained 1.46%, while the Sensex has risen by 3.36%.
