The company\u2019s market capitalisation stands at Rs 74,686.57 crore, placing the day\u2019s move in a large-cap context by market value. The session opened at Rs 347.25, touched an intraday high of Rs 352.1 and a low of Rs 343.2, while turnover was Rs 2.7 crore.<\/p>\n<p>The latest HINDPETRO Share Price Today update confirms a same-day price rise, but the supplied data does not establish a company-specific catalyst. For readers tracking Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. Share Price, the important context is the combination of a higher close, a modest intraday range and a valuation profile that is materially different from several refineries in the same industry. Univest is tracking the move as part of its HINDPETRO Stock News coverage, with attention on how the share price rise fits into broader sector and peer comparisons.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/why-hindustan-petroleum-corporation-ltd-share-price-price-rise-2026-09-16\/#Hindustan_Petroleum_Share_Price_Today_Price_Action_Analysis\" title=\"Hindustan Petroleum Share Price Today: Price Action Analysis\">Hindustan Petroleum Share Price Today: Price Action Analysis<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/why-hindustan-petroleum-corporation-ltd-share-price-price-rise-2026-09-16\/#Hindustan_Petroleum_Corporation_Ltd_HINDPETRO_Fundamental_Analysis\" title=\"Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd.
