The Worst Fall
The biggest fall RECLTD has ever had
The deepest drawdown in REC Ltd.'s record is -56.9% — from a peak in October 2010 to a low in December 2011, a fall that took 1 year and 2 months. That is the loss an investor holding throughout would have been looking at on paper, with dividends counted as reinvested.
- Peak
- October 2010
- Trough
- December 2011
- Fall
- -56.9%
- Recovered
- May 2014
It took until May 2014 to get back above the October 2010 peak — 3 years and 7 months underwater in total. Anyone who sold at the bottom locked in the -56.9%; 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 RECLTD 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
RECLTD spent 3 years and 7 months below its previous peak during the -56.9% fall, finally clearing it in May 2014. The climb back from the bottom alone took 2 years and 5 months.
Where it stands now
On a total-return basis RECLTD sits 45.6% below its best month, which was July 2024 — 2 years and 1 month 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
RECLTD 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 RECLTD?+
₹654, first reached on 12 July 2024. REC Ltd. last closed at ₹317, which is 51.6% 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 RECLTD from its all-time high?+
51.6% below it. Recovering that would take a gain of about 106.4% 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 RECLTD?+
Over the last twelve months REC Ltd. traded between ₹304 and ₹391, and last closed at ₹317. 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 RECLTD has ever had?+
-56.9%, from a peak in October 2010 to a low in December 2011. 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 RECLTD take to recover from its worst fall?+
3 years and 7 months. It fell from its October 2010 peak, bottomed in December 2011, and did not close a month above the old peak again until May 2014 — the climb back from the bottom alone took 2 years and 5 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 ₹654 figure is a price — the highest RECLTD 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 RECLTD 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 REC 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.
