Stock fell 7% to ₹123.54 — indicating negative sentiment due to foreign selling. Block Deal – Kerala Ayurveda Promoter Katra Holdings sold 22 lakh shares (18.28% stake) at ₹423/share, worth ₹93.06 crore.

Takeaway for Retail Investors: • Promoter selling isn’t always negative — if strong buyers step in, the stock can still rally (like Dixon & Kerala Ayurveda). • FII selling, on the other hand, can hurt stock sentiment (like Munjal Showa). • Always track who is buying, not just who is selling. Bulk/Block deals can give early signs of big moves in a stock — keep an eye on them!
