The stock of real estate company Omaxe plummeted to its new 52-week low of Rs 71.81 per share this week amid growing losses and declining sales – at a time when both benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty saw their best weekly gains in almost four years.

The real estate company is facing several challenges, including operating losses and a high debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 7.49 times. The company has reported negative results for three consecutive quarters, as its net sales and profits have declined sharply.
