HCL Technologies share price ended September 16 almost unchanged at ₹1,253. The decline was only ₹0.70 or 0.06% from the previous close of ₹1,254. Intraday movement was considerably wider. HCL Tech opened at ₹1,263, climbed to ₹1,285 and later fell to ₹1,245. 

That created a ₹40 high-low range around a closing change of less than one rupee. The final price was ₹8 above the low and ₹32 below the high. It also finished ₹10 below the opening price. Volume reached 3,265,633 shares. 

All three moving averages were above the September 16 finish. The 50-day DMA stood at ₹1,276.90, a relatively modest ₹23.90 gap. Its 100-day DMA was ₹1,283.40, leaving a ₹30.40 difference. The 200-day DMA was higher at ₹1,344, which put the closing price ₹91 below that level. 

The 52-week range ran from ₹1,030 to ₹1,780. At ₹1,253, the share was ₹223 above the annual low and ₹527 below the high. The September 16 session peak of ₹1,285 remained ₹495 below the 52-week high. The full annual band measured ₹750. 

Returns differed sharply across periods. One month stood at -7.87%. Three months was positive at 11.94%, but six months moved back to -5.46%. Over one year, the return was -14.56%. The difference between the three-month and one-year readings came to 26.50 percentage points. 

The near-flat September 16 close hides much of the movement that took place during the session. A ₹40 trading range separated the high from the low, yet the final price changed by only ₹0.70 from the previous close. HCL Technologies also remained below all three DMAs, while its three-month return continued to differ substantially from the negative six-month and one-year figures.
