Asian Paints share price closed at ₹2,454 on September 17, a gain of ₹37.40 or 1.55%. The previous close was ₹2,417. After opening at ₹2,424, the stock recorded a low of ₹2,421 and climbed as high as ₹2,454. The closing price matched that displayed intraday high, placing the finish at the upper edge of the day's ₹33 trading range. 

Volume for the session was 503,645 shares. Market capitalisation stood at ₹2,35,387 crore. The broader 52-week band remained much wider, stretching from ₹2,115 at the low to ₹2,986 at the high. September 17's close was ₹339 above the annual low and ₹532 below the 52-week high. 

Moving-average levels were grouped relatively closely together compared with the current price. The 50-day DMA stood at ₹2,607 and the 100-day DMA at ₹2,608.20, a difference of only ₹1.20 between the two measures. Asian Paints closed ₹153 below the 50-day figure and ₹154.20 below the 100-day level. Its 200-day DMA was ₹2,584.20, which was ₹130.20 above the closing price. 

Return data did not move in one direction across the measured periods. The stock's one-month return was -8.99%, while the three-month reading was -10.70%. Six-month performance was positive at 10.66%. Over one year, the return was slightly negative at -1.08%. 

The September 17 session therefore produced a positive daily move despite the weaker one- and three-month figures. From the ₹2,424 opening price, Asian Paints gained ₹30 by the close and ended ₹37 above the rounded previous-close figure. The day's low remained only ₹3 below the opening price, while the rest of the range developed above that level. Even after the 1.55% rise, however, the close remained beneath all three cited DMAs and more than ₹500 short of the 52-week high. Those distances are among the clearest numerical features of the latest price data.
