Novartis India Ltd. Share Price is Rs 1,590.25, down 0.28% today after hitting a fresh 52-week low of Rs 1,560.6. The company’s market capitalisation stands at Rs 3,937.32 crore.
Novartis India Ltd. Share Price was at Rs 1,590.25 on 13 August 2026, down Rs 4.4 or 0.28% from the previous close of Rs 1,594.65, after the stock touched a fresh 52-week low of Rs 1,560.6 in early trade. With a market capitalisation of Rs 3,937.32 crore, the move places Novartis India Ltd. Share Price firmly among the stocks in news for investors scanning 52 Week Low Stocks, Top Losers Today and broader Stock Market Today trends.
The verified data confirms the price event clearly: the stock opened at Rs 1,560.6, which was also the day’s low, and later recovered toward Rs 1,590.25, while the day high matched the previous close at Rs 1,594.65. That intraday pattern matters because it shows a sharp test of a new one-year low followed by only a limited rebound rather than a decisive recovery. The supplied data confirms the fresh 52-week trough, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst for why the stock is falling today.
For readers tracking Novartis India Ltd. Share Price Today, the immediate takeaways are straightforward. First, the stock has registered a fresh yearly low. Second, the day’s move is numerically small at 0.28%, but the breach of the 52-week floor is what is attracting attention in Share Market Today discussions. Third, the fundamental picture is mixed: the stock trades at a P/E ratio of 8.77 and P/B ratio of 6.03, while ROE stands at -1.29 and ROCE at -1.22. As Univest notes, investors now need to watch whether this price action remains isolated or begins to influence the stock’s relative standing versus its sector and peers.

Novartis India Ltd. (NOVARTIND) traded at Rs 1,590.25. versus the previous close of Rs 1,594.65, a fall of 0.28%. The stock opened at Rs 1,560.6, reached Rs 1,594.65, touched Rs 1,560.6. Reported volume was 18.
Novartis India Ltd. Share Price Today shows a fresh 52-week low event with a relatively modest percentage decline but a clear breakdown to a new one-year low. The stock opened at Rs 1,560.6, hit the same level as the day low, and later traded at Rs 1,590.25 against the previous close of Rs 1,594.65, highlighting weak early price action and only partial intraday recovery.
From a pure price perspective, Novartis India Ltd. Share Price started the session under pressure. The opening print of Rs 1,560.6 immediately matched the fresh 52-week low, showing that sellers tested the stock at its weakest level of the past year right from the start of the day. The fact that the day high was Rs 1,594.65, identical to the previous close, indicates the stock did not move into positive territory during the session captured by the data.
The stock was down Rs 4.4 on the day, or 0.28%, at the reported price of Rs 1,590.25. In isolation, that percentage decline may not look large, but 52-week low events often attract attention because they signal a new reference point for market participants following Novartis India Ltd. Share News, NSE News, BSE News and broader Market Movers. A one-year low can matter more than the daily percentage move because it resets sentiment around support levels and recent stock performance.
Trading participation, however, appears thin in the supplied snapshot. Current volume stood at 18 shares and turnover was reported at Rs 0 crore. That combination suggests the move occurred with extremely light visible Trading Volume in the captured data. For traders and long-term followers of Novartis India Ltd. Stock News, that is an important nuance: the stock has still made a fresh 52-week trough, but the reported activity level does not point to broad turnover-heavy participation at this stage.
In practical terms, the day’s price action shows a stock that slipped to a fresh annual low, then rebounded somewhat from the day low without reclaiming the previous close. That keeps Novartis India Ltd. Share Price Update relevant in today’s market news flow and shifts the focus from short-term price action to the valuation and profitability backdrop.
