Mumbai, Dec 10, 2025 – Yesterday's market rout left scars, with the Sensex erasing 291 points to settle at 84,810 and Nifty breaching 25,900, but the aftershocks hit hardest in the bargain bin: over 500 stocks plunged to fresh 52-week lows, outpacing the 61 that dared new highs. Infrastructure and cement names led the freefall, fanning flames of capex slowdown fears against a backdrop of U.S. rate hawkishness and tepid domestic demand.
Here are the top 10 stocks hitting 52-week lows by daily % decline (based on yesterday's data):
| Symbol | % Change | LTP |
|---|---|---|
| PRANIK | -9.30 | 50.20 |
| CLASSICEIL | -7.06 | 67.80 |
| ISHAN | -6.25 | 0.75 |
| HIGREEN | -5.05 | 129.60 |
| CSSL | -5.00 | 107.40 |
| YCCL | -5.00 | 11.40 |
| RELINFRA | -4.99 | 139.63 |
| ASPIRE | -4.96 | 16.30 |
| INVICTA | -4.96 | 91.90 |
| URAVIDEF | -4.70 | 153.30 |
The carnage was brutal for logistics upstart Pranik Logistics (PRANIK), which nosedived 9.3% to ₹50.20 after scraping a new annual bottom of ₹48.1—capping a punishing 34% rout over three months amid sector squeezes from rising fuel costs and supply snarls.
Infra heavyweight Reliance Infrastructure (RELINFRA) piled on the pain, shedding another 4.99% to close at ₹139.63 following a 19% demolition across seven sessions, capped by a gaping 5% open that screamed investor exodus on debt overhang and project delays.
Cement behemoth ACC joined the abyss, slipping 0.5% to ₹1,787 en route to a 52-week trough of ₹1,770.4, as peers like UltraTech echoed the slump on monsoon-hit volumes and escalating input prices—eroding margins in a sector that's shed 20% YTD.
Smaller fry fared no better: Classic Electricals (CLASSICEIL) tanked 7.06% to ₹67.80 on order book woes; Ishan Cements (ISHAN) vaporized 6.25% to a penny-stock low of ₹0.75 amid regional competition bites.
With 142 names locking lower circuits against 130 uppers, breadth screamed distress. "These lows aren't just technical—they're a cry for stimulus in cyclicals," warned a Mumbai strategist, as global yields spike. Nifty Bees (NIFTYBEES) grazed its yearly floor at ₹302.25 (off 0.36%), hinting at ETF outflows that could prolong the squeeze.
