The analysis
BSE reported ₹3,405, ₹3,520 and ₹3,366, with movement of 7%, 23% and 4.4% attached to those lines. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is +0.8% on the day at ₹3,199.00, and has returned -17.4% over three months. It sits 31% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The consumer & retail sector has moved -9.5% over the same period, so Avenue Supermarts is running 7.9 points behind its peers.
