Mumbai: VST Industries shares witnessed strong buying interest, rising 11.66 percent to Rs 269.70 during the day. The stock touched a high of Rs 286.78 and a low of Rs 267.00, compared to the previous close of Rs 241.53. This rally comes after a long phase of weak performance in the stock.
Recovery After Weak Performance
The stock had been under pressure for a long time. Over the last three years, it declined around 8 percent, while in the past one year, it slipped nearly 6 percent. After disappointing investors for an extended period, the stock is now back in focus with strong momentum.
