Shares in Jindal Steel and Power fall 6.5%, hitting earlier its lowest since May 28, 2009, after already slumping 7.4% in the previous two sessions.
Jindal share falls track a slump in metals stocks, while also reflecting continued worries about the impact over the recent report from the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) on the government's coal concessions.
