IREDA Crisis: 3 days of lower circuits, no buyers?

IREDA’s Downfall

In the last three days, IREDA’s shares have consistently hit a 5% lower circuit, creating a wave of concern among investors. Previously, the shares were reaching a 52-week high, generating significant enthusiasm.

However, now, as the shares continue to decline, no one seems ready to buy. More than 2 crore shares are on the sell order. On Friday, IREDA’s shares closed at a 5% lower circuit at ₹179.60. Over the last three days, the shares have seen a decline of about 13%.

52-Week Performance

IREDA’s shares have seen a 52-week high of ₹214.80 per share, while the 52-week low was at ₹50 per share. Notably, the company went public in November last year, with its shares listed at ₹60 per share on November 29. The IPO price band was set at ₹30-₹32 per share.

Triple Profit in Two Months

After listing on the stock market, IREDA’s shares provided a triple return in two months, moving from ₹60 to ₹214. This period saw a return of approximately 250%. Within a month, the shares delivered a return of more than 70%. However, a 12.30% decline has been observed in the last five days. IREDA’s price-to-equity ratio stands at 35.67%.

Lack of Buyers for IREDA Shares

For the past three days, IREDA’s shares have continuously faced declines, leading to investors rushing to sell, but finding no buyers. Approximately 2 crore shares are pending in sell orders.

Are You Stuck Too?

If you’ve bought shares around ₹200, you might have already faced significant losses. It’s currently unclear when the lower circuit on IREDA’s shares will break.

IREDA is renewable energy share. So investors (long term) should try not to panic. As we all know shares can’t move in any one direction. And profit booking is necessary. I believe, it will definately come back to give good returns and new 52 week high.
