Shares of FMCG major, ITC shaw a sharp decline from yesterday’s close as the stock was trading at Rs. 331.50 today ahead of the release of its third-quarter earnings for the financial year 2025-26. Along with the quarterly results, the company might also consider the declaration of a dividend for its shareholders.
