It was madness when it came to trading in e-commerce conglomerate Infibeam Avenues Limited. The share price of Infibeam was not even near to half of its previous market price of Rs 197.55. Investors dumped Infibeam share price, causing it to plunge by a massive 73% with an intraday low of Rs 53.80 per piece, which was also its all-time low. However, the share price managed to end at Rs 58.80 per piece down by Rs 138.75 or 70.24%.

With this performance Infibeam, has now plunged by nearly 78% in a year. It was only on September 18, where the company soared to a new high of Rs 242.80 per piece. While today’s performance was something that Infibeam would have never expected.

The reason behind such huge panic, was on the back of rumours that alleged at Infibeam having advanced interest-free loan to a subsidiary, which has negative net asset.
