BSE Inquiry and Company Response
The company responded to BSE's surveillance inquiry dated February 24, 2026, which sought clarification on the unusual increase in trading volume across exchanges. In its official communication, Kitex Garments identified specific factors contributing to the heightened investor interest.
Impact of US Tariff Changes
