This marks a notable decline of 19.24% from its intraday high, contributing to an underperformance of 8.81% against its sector peers. The stock has shown erratic trading patterns, with no activity on one of the last 20 trading days.
In terms of moving averages, Softsol India is currently trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, indicating a challenging market position. Over the past year, the stock has recorded a decline of 5.08%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's gain of 7.54%.
