Zomato share price rallied over 18 per cent to Rs 67.60 apiece on BSE on Tuesday, a day after the company posted a 75 per cent jump in revenue in fourth quarter of FY22. The total market capitalisation of Zomato crossed Rs 50,000 crore-mark. The company, in a stock exchange filing, said that the average monthly transacting customers were at an all-time high of 15.7 million in Q4FY22, growing from 15.3 million in the December quarter. Likewise, the average monthly active restaurant partners and delivery partners were at all-time highs as well.

From its high point of 169 to its most recent low of 50, Zomato had witnessed a very steep and ferocious decline which had made the stock deeply oversold, said a technical analyst. “We have witnessed a sharp technical pullback. However, speaking strictly from a technical perspective, investors should not jump in at this price as some consolidation is likely. Also, there is no confirmation of a bottom being in place. At the most, one can just invest a small portion and wait for the prices to settle down,” Milan Vaishnav, CMT, MSTA, Consulting Technical Analyst and founder, Gemstone Equity Research & Advisory Services, told FinancialExpress.com.

In traded volume terms, a total of 65.02 lakh shares exchanged hands on BSE, while 12.92 crore scrips traded on National Stock Exchange (NSE), so far in the day. AR Ramachandran, Co-founder & Trainer, Tips2Trades, told FinancialExpress.com that despite widening losses in Q4FY22, an increasing customer base coupled with a technical bounce back from oversold levels has led to a sharp uptrend in Zomato today. “Technically, 60 now acts as a good support. Consistent daily close above 66 should lead to 74-78 in the coming days,” Ramachandran advised investors.
