The Worst Fall
The biggest fall NLCINDIA has ever had
The deepest drawdown in NLC India Ltd.'s record is -80.8% — from a peak in December 2007 to a low in November 2008, a fall that took 11 months. That is the loss an investor holding throughout would have been looking at on paper, with dividends counted as reinvested.
- Peak
- December 2007
- Trough
- November 2008
- Fall
- -80.8%
- Recovered
- September 2023
It took until September 2023 to get back above the December 2007 peak — 15 years and 9 months underwater in total. Anyone who sold at the bottom locked in the -80.8%; anyone who held got it all back and kept whatever came afterwards.
Measured on month-end values, so a fall that went deeper inside a month and came back before month end is not captured — a real intra-month low was at least this bad and possibly worse. Dividends are treated as reinvested, which makes this shallower than the fall in the quoted price.
Recovery
How long NLCINDIA took to recover
Depth is only half of a drawdown. The part that decides whether someone holds on is how long they spend waiting to get back to where they were.
The worst stretch
NLCINDIA spent 15 years and 9 months below its previous peak during the -80.8% fall, finally clearing it in September 2023. The climb back from the bottom alone took 14 years and 10 months.
Where it stands now
On a total-return basis NLCINDIA sits 22.1% below its best month, which was May 2026 — 3 months ago.
These figures are total return — the peak is the high point of a holding whose dividends were reinvested, which is not the same as the highest quoted price. The quoted-price figures are in the all-time-high section above, and the two will differ on any company that pays a dividend.
How This Is Calculated
Reading these figures properly
Two different bases
The all-time high and 52-week range are quoted prices — split-adjusted, dividends excluded. The drawdown and recovery figures are total return, with dividends reinvested. On a dividend payer they will not agree, and that difference is the dividends rather than an error.
Month-end drawdowns
The fall and recovery are measured on month-end values, so a deeper low inside a month that recovered before the month closed is not captured. The real worst moment was at least this bad.

HELP CENTER
NLCINDIA all-time high and drawdowns — common questions
Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.
What is the all-time high of NLCINDIA?+
₹388, first reached on 14 May 2026. NLC India Ltd. last closed at ₹271, which is 30.2% below it. This is an intraday high adjusted for stock splits but not for dividends, so it is directly comparable with the price quoted today. Figures update when our data pipeline runs rather than continuously.
How far is NLCINDIA from its all-time high?+
30.2% below it. Recovering that would take a gain of about 43.3% from here — the asymmetry that makes falls harder to undo than they look, because a 50% fall needs a 100% gain to reverse.
What is the 52-week high and low of NLCINDIA?+
Over the last twelve months NLC India Ltd. traded between ₹223 and ₹388, and last closed at ₹271. Both figures are intraday — the highest and lowest prices actually printed in the window, not the highest and lowest closes.
What is the biggest fall NLCINDIA has ever had?+
-80.8%, from a peak in December 2007 to a low in November 2008. That is measured on total return, so dividends are counted as reinvested and the fall in the quoted price was deeper still. It is also measured on month-end values, which means an intra-month low that recovered before the month closed is not captured — the real worst moment was at least this bad.
How long did NLCINDIA take to recover from its worst fall?+
15 years and 9 months. It fell from its December 2007 peak, bottomed in November 2008, and did not close a month above the old peak again until September 2023 — the climb back from the bottom alone took 14 years and 10 months. Depth gets the attention, but the waiting is what most people find hard.
Why does this page show two different all-time highs?+
Because they measure different things and both are correct. The ₹388 figure is a price — the highest NLCINDIA ever traded at, on the same basis prices are quoted today. The drawdown section instead tracks the value of a holding whose dividends were reinvested, and its peak is the high point of that holding rather than of the price. On a company that pays dividends the two always differ, and using the second one to answer "what is the all-time high" would understate it.
Is NLCINDIA a good buy after this fall?+
That is not a question this page answers, and we do not make recommendations. What it can tell you is exactly how far NLC India Ltd. has fallen from its high, how deep its worst fall was, and how long the recovery took — the historical context most price pages leave out. A stock that recovered from every previous fall may not recover from this one, and a large fall is not by itself evidence of value.
