Avenue Supermarts shares fall despite store expansion
In short
Avenue Supermarts shares fell 3% even after the company added 15 new stores in the quarter. That was up from eight stores in the same period last year, and the total store count reached 518 at the end of Q2FY27.
This matters because investors are weighing growth in the store network against the weaker share price. The report does not say why the stock fell or how the revenue recovery looked in full.
