Mumbai, May 22, 2025 — Shares of Bajaj Auto Limited (NSE: BAJAJ-AUTO) slipped in early trading on Thursday, falling by ₹113.50 or 1.31%, as selling pressure gripped auto counters across the board. The stock was last seen trading at ₹8,574.00, compared to the previous close of ₹8,687.50.
Bajaj Auto opened the session at ₹8,660.00 and briefly touched a high of ₹8,667.50 before retreating to an intraday low of ₹8,570.00. The volume-weighted average price (VWAP) stood at ₹8,603.60, suggesting a broadly bearish sentiment among traders.
The drop comes amid sector-wide weakness, with concerns over slowing domestic sales and margin pressures weighing on investor confidence. Market analysts pointed to rising raw material costs and muted demand in key two-wheeler segments as contributing factors to the decline.
Despite the near-term pressure, long-term investors remain focused on the company’s export performance and product innovation roadmap to assess sustained growth potential.
