Stock rebounds sharply from March lows
Trent shares staged a strong rebound in April, rising 26%, with the momentum continuing in the following months. The recovery came after the stock remained under sustained selling pressure between October 2024 and March 2026, during which it lost 54% of its value.
The prolonged correction resulted in the stock ending 2025 with a decline of around 40%, marking its first annual loss since 2013.
So far in 2026, the stock has gained 17.2% and has recovered 53% from its March lows. However, it still trades around 40% below its record high of ₹5,563 per share.
