Bajaj Consumer Care’s share price has shown mixed performance across different timeframes, reflecting both sharp gains and deep corrections. Over the past one month, the stock has surged 46.85%, outperforming both the Sensex (-0.41%) and the BSE FMCG index (3.73%). In the last three months, it jumped 42.53%, again beating the broader market, which rose only 3.35% during the same period. Even on a year-to-date (YTD) basis, the stock climbed 23.69%, against the Sensex’s 4.54% gain.
However, the stock has had a turbulent longer-term history. Over the past one year, Bajaj Consumer shares fell 7.44%, underperforming the Sensex’s 1.82% gain. In a 10-year window, it delivered a massive negative return of -46.57%, making it a significant underperformer. That said, returns over 3 years (up 54.35%) and 5 years (up 47.33%) indicate that the stock has recovered some lost ground, albeit with volatility.
