The decline erased the stock's gains from the previous two sessions and pushed it to its lowest closing level since April 2, 2026.
Bulk deal activity also included stake sales in other listed companies.

As of September 2026, the fund held a 1.65% stake, equivalent to 1.72 lakh shares. Mehul Telecom shares subsequently declined 11.92% to ₹114.50.

The key development for Jubilant Ingrevia is the contrast between institutional buying and the stock's sharp decline. The bulk deal confirms that East Bridge Capital acquired shares, but it does not establish the investor's long-term outlook or guarantee a recovery in the stock price.
Investors may monitor subsequent share-price movements, trading volumes, company announcements and financial performance before drawing conclusions about the stock's direction.

The fund purchased shares worth approximately ₹55.46 crore, at an average price of ₹601.75 per share.
The purchase represented approximately 0.57% of Jubilant Ingrevia's paid-up equity capital.
