Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

DMart share price opened at Rs 3,405 against a previous close of Rs 3,520 on 12 October and fell 4.4% to a fresh 52-week low of Rs 3,366, extending a slide that began after the Q2 business update. The business is growing, since Q2 revenue rose 18.3% to Rs 19,206 crore and the chain reached 518 stores, but the stock still trades at about 73 times trailing earnings, my calculation using an EPS of Rs 46.89, with a return on equity near 13%. The decline is mainly a valuation reset, because investors are asking for faster growth or higher returns to justify a premium multiple, and it is amplified by foreign selling, rising US yields and slower store additions of 18 in the first half against 17 a year earlier. No company-specific negative news was reported on 12 October, brokerages are divided, and the Q2 results are the next test.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

DMart share price is down about 43% from its record high near Rs 5,900 and about 8% from Rs 3,686.80 on 5 October, which makes the stock one of the weakest large caps this month. Avenue Supermarts runs the DMart chain of value supermarkets, and it owns most of its stores, which keeps costs low but ties up capital.<\/p>\n

If you hold Avenue Supermarts or are wondering whether the fall is a buying chance, this article covers the 12 October move, the timeline of the fall, the Q2 business update, why the DMart share price is declining, valuation against growth, brokerage views, levels to watch, scenarios, the risks and what to watch next.<\/p>\n
