On the reaction day the stock moved 2.5 pts less than Nifty Midcap 150 and 1.7 pts less than its Internet & Catalogue Retail peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
On October 28, 2026, the board approved Hitesh Oberoi's resignation as Managing Director and CEO effective December 2, after nearly 27 years with Info Edge. He will become a non-executive, non-independent promoter director from December 3, subject to shareholder approval. Sanjeev Bikhchandani will become Executive Vice Chairman, Managing Director and Group CEO from December 3 through April 26, 2031, also subject to shareholder approval.
The planned succession supports continuity, but investor reaction will depend on execution and how shareholders view the founder-led structure.
