Zomato Share Price
Zomato stock price has been on a steady uptrend and analysts believe this uptrend to continue. Zomato shares have gained over 9% in one month and more than 37% in three months. The stock price has given multibagger returns of over 122% year-to-date (YTD) and over 170% in one year.
“Zomato shares remain in overall uptrend and this upward momentum has not been distracted. As long as Zomato stock remains above the ₹255 – 258 levels, the uptrend would remain intact,” said Milan Vaishnav, founder of ChartWizard FZE and Gemstone Equity Research.
According to Vaishnav, the immediate upside target for Zomato shares is ₹290 – 295 levels, which may act as a resistance.
“We do not recommend entering fresh positions in Zomato shares until this high is broken. Existing investors should raise their stop loss to ₹255 level,” Vaishnav said.
At 12:05 PM, Zomato shares were trading 1.60% lower at ₹273.80 apiece on the BSE with a market capitalisation of over ₹2.41 lakh crore.
