Trent Stock Plummets 40% in 2025
Trent, a company owned by the Tata group, has seen its stock price drop by 40% in 2025.
This makes it the worst-performing stock in the Nifty 50 index, which actually went up by 10.5% in the same period.
Trent runs stores like Westside and Zudio.
Analysts say the stock fell because the company's growth slowed down, and it became harder to keep high prices (called P/E ratios) when growth isn't as strong.
They also point to more competition from other retailers and higher costs.
Despite this, some analysts think the stock could bounce back in the first half of 2026 as new store formats mature and margins improve.
Long-term investors have seen big gains, with the stock up 552% over the last five years.
Right now, most analysts recommend buying the stock, but some suggest selling.
Trent's stock has fallen 40% in 2025, making it the worst-performing Nifty 50 constituent.
The Nifty 50 index rose 10.5% in 2025, highlighting Trent's underperformance.
This is Trent's first annual decline in 11 years, despite a 552% return over five years.
Analysts attribute the fall to a valuation reset, moderating growth, increased competition, and higher input costs.
Despite the decline, some analysts see a potential rebound in the first half of 2026 due to new store formats and margin improvements.
