Shares of IFCI fell as much as 7% to a day’s low of Rs 95.3 on the BSE on Tuesday as investors booked profits following a sharp rally in recent sessions. The decline snapped the stock’s two-day winning streak, while the stock surged nearly 30% over the past month.
The recent uptick comes after the much-awaited IPO of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) received market regulator Sebi’s approval, clearing a key hurdle to become India’s second listed stock exchange.
