According to The Financial Express, penny stocks typically trade at very low prices and belong to small businesses with limited financial strength, but they may not necessarily indicate weak companies. These stocks may have Re 1 or ₹5 face values, stock splits, or larger equity bases, and certain companies may possess strong business models. Investors should focus on fundamentals and long-term growth potential rather than judging companies solely by share price.
