Star Cement Ltd. (STARCEMENT) Share Price Hits Fresh 52-Week Low at Rs 191.50

Star Cement Ltd. Share Price was at Rs 194 on 20 August 2026, unchanged from the previous close, after the stock touched a fresh 52-week low of Rs 191.50 in intraday trade. The company’s market capitalisation stood at Rs 8,035.11 crore, making this one-year low notable even though the day’s percentage move was flat at 0% by the time the event was recorded.

For investors tracking Star Cement Ltd. Share Price Today, the verified data confirms the price event clearly: the stock opened at Rs 193.70, moved to a day high of Rs 194.05, and slipped to the new 52-week trough of Rs 191.50 before trading back at Rs 194. Turnover was Rs 0.07 crore with current volume of 3,426 shares. The supplied data confirms the fresh 52-week low, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst behind the move.

That still makes Star Cement Ltd. Stock News relevant in the broader context of Stock Market Today and Share Market Today, because Stocks at 52 Week Low often draw attention for valuation re-checks, sector comparison and price action review. Univest notes that the stock’s current valuation multiples, profitability ratios and sector positioning provide the main verified context investors can monitor next.

Star Cement Ltd. Share Price Today shows a session defined more by intraday weakness than by end-of-session damage. The stock touched a fresh 52-week low of Rs 191.50, opened at Rs 193.70, reached a day high of Rs 194.05 and was last at Rs 194, the same as its previous close.

The latest Star Cement Ltd. Share Price Update shows that the stock briefly moved below the previous close during the session before recovering to flat. That pattern matters because the fresh yearly low was recorded even without a closing decline. In practical terms, the market still tested a lower price zone, which is why the stock has entered the 52 Week Low Stocks screen and is appearing among stocks in news and market movers.

The intraday range between Rs 191.50 and Rs 194.05 was relatively narrow, but the important price action signal is the creation of a new one-year low. Current volume stood at 3,426 shares and turnover was Rs 0.07 crore, indicating limited traded value in the recorded window. For readers searching Star Cement Ltd. Share News or Star Cement Ltd. Share Price Live, the verified takeaway is simple: the stock marked a new 52-week trough, then returned to the previous close level.

Because the supplied dataset does not include momentum indicators, the next useful step is to examine whether Star Cement Ltd. Fundamental Analysis offers stronger context for why the stock is attracting attention despite a flat day-on-day print.
