Coal India share price ended October 28 at ₹392, declining ₹6 or 1.51% from the previous close of ₹398. The stock opened at ₹398, matching that previous closing level, and the session high was also around ₹398. Prices moved down to ₹391 before the close. The final figure was therefore only ₹1 above the day's low and approximately ₹6 below both the open and high.

The intraday range was narrow at about ₹7. Trading volume reached 5,307,307 shares. With the stock beginning near the upper end of its range and finishing close to the lower end, most of the net session movement occurred below the opening level rather than through a wide two-way price interval.

Coal India closed below all three moving averages shown on 5paisa. The 50-day DMA stood at ₹415.20, leaving a ₹23.20 gap.

The 100-day and 200-day averages themselves were separated by only ₹1.70.

The 52-week low was ₹370 and the high ₹491. At ₹392, Coal India stood just ₹22 above the annual low and ₹99 below the yearly high. The closing price was therefore much nearer the lower boundary of the 52-week range.

Performance was negative over each displayed period, but the magnitude differed. The one-month return was -8.00%, the three-month figure -8.30% and the six-month return -13.37%. The one-year return was only -1.18%. That comparatively small annual decline contrasted with the larger losses recorded over the shorter three- and six-month periods.
