Small-cap stock: Defying weak market sentiment, Arkade Developers share price has seen healthy gains since its listing in September last year. On Tuesday, January 7, Arkade Developers share price jumped almost 6 per cent on the BSE, a day after it announced it added three redevelopment projects in Western Mumbai. The small-cap stock opened at ₹174.05 against its previous close of ₹172.85 and jumped 5.6 per cent to the level of ₹182.50. Around 1:55 PM, the stock traded 4.9 per cent up at ₹181.30.

Arkade Developers shares debuted on the BSE and the NSE on September 24 last year. At the current market price of ₹182.50, the small-cap stock has gained nearly 43 per cent against its issue price of ₹128.

On a monthly scale, the stock has been in the green since November even as the domestic market benchmarks, the Sensex and the Nifty 50, witnessed significant corrections due to stretched valuations, weak Q2 earnings, foreign capital outflow and rising US bond yields and dollar.

Arkade Developers share price hit its all-time high of ₹190 on September 24 and a 52-week low of ₹128.30 on November 21 last year.
