Market cap was Rs 1,03,241.2 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p class=\"univest-article-timestamp\" style=\"font-size:14px;color:#5F6673;margin:8px 0 18px 0;;margin-top:0!important;margin-bottom:0!important;\"><strong>Published:<\/strong> 17 September 2026 at 9:18 AM IST<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">IRFC Share Price moved to Rs 79.81 on 17 September 2026, up 1.03% from the previous close of Rs 79, after trading down to a fresh 52-week low of Rs 79.06 during the session. Indian Railway Finance Corporation Ltd. (IRFC) carries a market capitalisation of Rs 1,03,241.20 Cr, placing the move in a large listed-company context by market value. The day\u2019s range stayed narrow, with the stock opening at Rs 79.17, touching a high of Rs 79.87 and a low of Rs 79.06. The verified data confirms the price event, while it does not establish a company-specific catalyst. For readers tracking IRFC Share Price Today, the key question is how the year-low print compares with valuation, earnings and sector benchmarks.<\/p>\n<p>In Univest coverage, IRFC Stock News is relevant because the stock is now at a fresh 52-week trough even though the closing move was positive. That combination makes IRFC Share Price important for market screens that track stocks at yearly lows, Indian Stock Market updates and Share Market Today notes. The move also keeps IRFC Share Price News focused on factual price action, not speculation. What matters next is whether the stock\u2019s current valuation, profitability and peer comparison justify the present market level.<\/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-indian-railway-finance-corporation-ltd-share-price-52-week-low-2026-09-17\/#IRFC_Share_Price_Today_Price_Action_Analysis\" title=\"IRFC Share Price Today: Price Action Analysis\">IRFC 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-indian-railway-finance-corporation-ltd-share-price-52-week-low-2026-09-17\/#Indian_Railway_Finance_Corporation_Ltd_IRFC_Fundamental_Analysis\" title=\"Indian Railway Finance Corporation Ltd.
