The post-earnings sell-off in Rail Vikas Nigam Limited shares extended into a fifth straight session on Tuesday, June 2, with the stock falling another 3% to the day’s low of ₹232.80 apiece. The stock was last seen around these levels in April 2023, highlighting sustained selling pressure in the railway major.
Over the last five trading sessions, including today, the stock has cumulatively lost 14.5% of its value, bringing its market capitalisation below ₹50,000 crore and making it one of the worst-performing mid-cap stocks of 2026.
The stock has been on a downward trajectory since the beginning of the year, with the sell-off intensifying after the company announced its March quarter results last week, which came in below Street estimates.
The latest decline has widened the stock’s year-to-date losses to 33%, marking its steepest annual fall since its listing in 2019. This comes after the stock had already declined 15.5% in 2025.
Once known for its record-breaking rally, the stock is now struggling to regain momentum in a volatile market. However, retail investor confidence appears to remain intact, with retail shareholders collectively holding a 15.9% stake at the end of the March quarter, according to Trendlyne data.
