  • Shares plunged over 10% to an intraday low of ₹16.83, ending a five-day rally that had pushed gains to roughly 33% following the strong first-quarter update.
  • PC Jeweller’s board will convene on July 10 to consider a preferential allotment of securities, with the final proposal subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.
