NTPC&#x27;s move aligns with a broader pullback in the stock, reflecting a 5-day return of -6.09% and a 20-day return of -9.36%, bringing the price near its 52-week low of \u20b9292.05.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wt-copy\">Recent developments include the exchange seeking clarification on a media report regarding profit growth and buyback plans, which the company formally disputed as factually incorrect and misleading. Additionally, the company announced the appointment of Shri Diwakar Nath Misra as a Government Nominee Director and the commercial operation of new solar capacities, though these corporate updates serve as ongoing context rather than direct catalysts for today&#x27;s price action.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wt-copy\">78.80 lakh shares traded by 23 October 2026 \u00b7 03:00 PM IST. This compares with a 20-day average daily volume of 88.22 lakh shares (0.89 times). The five-day average daily volume was 88.46 lakh shares. Separately, the NSE report for 22 October 2026 showed 43.28 lakh shares delivered, representing 56.17% of that day\u2019s traded volume.
