Vesuvius India Ltd. Share Price fell to Rs 429 on 20 August 2026, down Rs 4 or 0.92% from the previous close of Rs 433, and this move placed the stock at a fresh 52-week low. With a market capitalisation of Rs 8,788.2 crore, the stock has moved into focus for investors tracking fresh one-year lows, price action and relative valuation within the Capital Goods space.
The verified data confirms the price event clearly: the day’s low was Rs 429, which is also the new 52-week trough. The stock opened at Rs 435.2 and traded as high as Rs 437.2 before slipping to the day’s low. Turnover stood at Rs 0.1 crore, while traded volume was 2,323 shares. That combination makes Vesuvius India Ltd. Share Price Today relevant for traders watching intraday weakness and for long-term market participants comparing current valuation with sector and peer metrics.
What is notable in this Vesuvius India Ltd. Stock News update is that the supplied data establishes the fall and the fresh yearly low, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst behind the decline. That means the immediate attention is being driven by the price event itself, the stock’s market position and the contrast between company ratios and broader Capital Goods benchmarks. In this Univest analysis, the next factors to monitor are price stability around the new low, how the valuation stacks up against the sector, and how profitability ratios compare with listed peers.
