However, from a longer-term perspective, the stock has outperformed competitors including Wakefit Innovations (-35.13% over 1 year) and BirlaNu (-42.24% over 1 year). The latest correction reflects a pause in upward momentum after recent rallies, with investors closely monitoring demand trends, raw material costs, export performance, and margin sustainability going forward.
