Nifty 50 Top Losers: HUL Down 1.90%, TCS 1.33%, Titan 1.16% Among Nifty Laggards

Mumbai, May 7: Hindustan Unilever was the top Nifty 50 loser on Thursday, falling 1.90 per cent to close at ₹2,273.00 in a session where FMCG, IT, consumer, and pharma stocks dragged the index lower. TCS, Titan, Tech Mahindra, ITC, and Sun Pharma also featured among the six biggest index losers, declining between 0.93 per cent and 1.33 per cent as selective profit-booking and sector-specific headwinds weighed on the broader market despite a largely positive undertone.

HUL – Down 1.90%

Hindustan Unilever was the biggest Nifty 50 loser on Thursday, declining 1.90 per cent to close at ₹2,273.00 from its previous close of ₹2,317.10 on the NSE. The FMCG major opened at ₹2,310.00, briefly touched an intraday high of ₹2,327.90 before sellers took control, with the stock hitting a session low of ₹2,268.10. A total of 18.59 lakh shares worth approximately ₹424.13 crore were traded during the day, as investors unwound positions in the consumer staples heavyweight amid concerns over demand recovery and margin sustainability in the near term.

TCS – Down 1.33%

Tata Consultancy Services was the second-biggest Nifty 50 loser on Thursday, shedding 1.33 per cent to close at ₹2,403.00 from its previous close of ₹2,435.40. India’s largest IT company opened marginally higher at ₹2,438.20, touched an intraday high of ₹2,439.70 at the open before retreating sharply to a session low of ₹2,398.00. A total of 58.30 lakh shares worth approximately ₹1,404.02 crore changed hands during the day, making it the most heavily traded counter by value among the session’s top losers, reflecting broad-based institutional selling in the IT bellwether.

Titan – Down 1.16%

Titan Company declined 1.16 per cent on Thursday to close at ₹4,309.00 from its previous close of ₹4,359.60. The Tata Group jewellery and lifestyle retailer opened at ₹4,349.90, touched an intraday high of ₹4,359.00 near the open before slipping to a session low of ₹4,261.00 as selling pressure mounted through the afternoon. A total of 13.78 lakh shares worth approximately ₹592.24 crore were traded during the session, with the stock closing well below its intraday high, indicating that bears maintained the upper hand through the day.

Tech Mahindra – Down 1.14%

Tech Mahindra fell 1.14 per cent on Thursday to close at ₹1,450.00 from its previous close of ₹1,466.70, tracking weakness across the broader IT pack. The mid-heavyweight IT services company opened near flat at ₹1,467.00, scaled a brief intraday high of ₹1,475.90 before declining to a session low of ₹1,444.00. A total of 11.47 lakh shares worth approximately ₹166.71 crore were traded during the day, with selling pressure consistent through the second half of the session as the IT sector failed to find buying support.

ITC – Down 1.01%

ITC shares declined 1.01 per cent on Thursday to close at ₹307.55 from its previous close of ₹310.70. The cigarettes-to-hotels conglomerate opened marginally higher at ₹311.45, touched an intraday high of ₹311.65, and then reversed sharply to a session low of ₹307.00 as profit-booking set in. A total of 257.19 lakh shares worth approximately ₹793.47 crore were traded, making it the most actively traded counter by volume among the day’s top six losers, with broad retail and institutional selling dragging the stock below the ₹308 level for much of the session.

Sun Pharma – Down 0.93%

Sun Pharmaceutical Industries shares  rounded out the top six Nifty 50 losers on Thursday, falling 0.93 per cent to close at ₹1,833.00 from its previous close of ₹1,850.20. The country’s largest pharma company by market capitalisation opened flat at ₹1,850.20, briefly edged up to an intraday high of ₹1,857.10 before selling pressure pulled it to a session low of ₹1,826.30. A total of 22.01 lakh shares worth approximately ₹404.20 crore changed hands during the day, with the stock closing off its lows but still well below its opening level, reflecting cautious sentiment in the pharma sector.
