Eternal Limited Stock Jumps on 12.12.2025: What’s Driving ETERNAL Shares, Fresh Targets, and the Key Levels Investors Are Watching

Published: December 12, 2025
Eternal Limited (NSE: ETERNAL, formerly Zomato) is back in the spotlight on 12.12.2025, with the stock trading around the ₹295–₹299 zone in early moves and showing a clear bounce from this week’s pressure. ^[1]

The timing is not random: the market is digesting a rapid-fire chain of catalysts—recent institutional block-deal activity, an ESG rating “Leader” upgrade, and a still-heated debate over whether Eternal’s pullback from its October peak is a “healthy reset” or a warning sign. ^[2]

Below is a full, news-style roundup for 12.12.2025—covering today’s price action, what analysts and brokerages are signaling, and the technical “make-or-break” levels that keep showing up in the commentary.

Eternal share price today (12.12.2025): where the stock is trading

On December 12, 2025, Eternal shares were indicated in the high-₹290s, with reports showing levels such as ₹298.25 in early tracking and an intraday range around ₹288.60–₹299.00 across market data snapshots. ^[3]

A key contextual stat: the stock remains roughly ~19% below its 52-week high of ₹368.45 (set in mid-October 2025), even after today’s bounce. ^[4]

Why Eternal is trending on 12.12.2025

1) “Stocks to buy today” calls put Eternal on trader radars

A prominent driver this morning is the appearance of Eternal in daily stock-pick lists. Times of India, citing Bajaj Broking Research, highlighted Eternal among the top ideas for December 12, 2025, arguing the stock has been correcting for weeks and is now consolidating near a major demand zone with potential for a rebound toward ~₹323 in the coming months. ^[5]

That kind of “day-of” visibility matters—Google Discover loves what retail investors are clicking, and “Top stocks to buy today” is basically financial-content jet fuel.

2) ESG “Leader” rating: a sentiment tailwind that’s still echoing

Just a day earlier, Eternal’s shares moved after disclosures that NSE Sustainability Ratings & Analytics assigned the company an ESG rating of 77 (“Leader”) for FY2025—news that multiple outlets tied to a short-term pop. ^[6]

Even when ESG ratings don’t change cash flows overnight, they can shift institutional comfort (and narrative momentum) quickly—especially for large, liquid consumer-internet names.

3) The market is still digesting the block-deal wave

Eternal has also been in focus due to large institutional trades. Earlier this week, coverage detailed a roughly ₹1,535 crore block deal (about 0.5% of equity changing hands) executed around ₹290-ish levels, with follow-on reporting describing how the stock initially moved up before slipping from the day’s high. ^[7]

Block deals can do two opposite things at once:

add temporary supply (pressure) as large holders exit, but also
signal that big buyers exist at a known price (support / confidence).

The big debate: is this a buy-the-dip moment—or a trap?

The bearish angle: “still in correction mode”

Economic Times has emphasized the post-October slide: Eternal has fallen about 21% from its October high, and technicians cited in the coverage warned the stock hadn’t confirmed a durable reversal yet. In that analysis, the 200-day EMA area (~₹283) was framed as an important decision point; below it, downside targets like ₹265–₹270 were discussed, while upside confirmation levels were noted around ₹305 and ₹320. ^[8]

This matters because it defines the “map” many short-term traders use:

support zones = where dip buyers typically test conviction
trigger levels = where momentum funds re-enter

The bullish angle: analysts still like the long-term story

Despite the pullback, the Street’s longer-term stance is broadly constructive. Aggregated consensus pages show “Buy” leaning ratings and price targets that imply meaningful upside from current levels—though the spread between low and high targets is wide, which is another way of saying “this is a narrative stock.” ^[9]

A few reference points currently circulating:

Investing.com consensus: “Buy” with an average 12-month target around ₹382.97 (high estimate ₹483, low ₹200). ^[10]
Trendlyne consensus snapshot: average target around ₹360.83. ^[11]
Geojit research (Nov 2025): upgraded to BUY with a target of ₹350, citing an SOTP (sum-of-the-parts) style valuation. ^[12]
Morgan Stanley (Nov 2025, via ET): reiterated Overweight and raised target to ₹427, calling the correction an “attractive buying window” and discussing downside scenarios around ₹280–₹285. ^[13]

Technical picture on 12.12.2025: bullish short-term signals, but the long-term line is still contested

If you look at indicator dashboards updating on Dec 12, some technical summaries lean constructive:

Investing.com’s indicator table shows “Strong Buy” signals for several momentum indicators (e.g., RSI and MACD). ^[14]
But the same page flags the 200-day moving average as a Sell in that snapshot—often interpreted as “short-term rebound inside a broader consolidation/correction.” ^[15]

In plain English: the stock is bouncing, but many systems still want proof that the longer trend has flipped.

Fundamentals investors are watching: growth, spending, and the Blinkit engine

Eternal’s identity (and valuation arguments) are tightly bound to its scale-up playbook—especially in quick commerce.

Recent reporting has reiterated that Eternal (owner of the Zomato and Blinkit brands) is still in an aggressive investment phase, with Q2 FY26 numbers widely cited: net profit ₹65 crore even as revenue surged (various reports cite triple-digit growth), highlighting the classic trade-off—growth now, operating leverage later. ^[16]

One of the most important “watch items” for 2026 positioning is whether quick commerce can approach sustainable unit economics at scale. A Reuters item carried on Zerodha’s market page noted expectations around Blinkit expansion (including store-count growth) and referenced commentary that EBITDA break-even for Blinkit was anticipated by Dec 2025 in certain forecasts. ^[17]

What to watch next: catalysts and risk factors (from today’s lens)

Near-term catalysts

Follow-through after today’s bounce: does the stock hold above the commonly referenced stability zones near ₹305 (often cited as a first “regain control” level)? ^[18]
More institutional activity: the block-deal cycle has kept Eternal unusually newsy, and further large trades can swing the tape. ^[19]
Index + macro tone: daily brokerage notes are explicitly tying market direction to currency/trade headlines and central-bank commentary, which can amplify moves in high-beta internet stocks. ^[20]

Key risks (the unglamorous but important stuff)

Valuation sensitivity: Eternal’s reported headline P/E metrics remain extreme on many dashboards, which means sentiment can flip fast when growth expectations wobble. ^[21]
Competition intensity in quick commerce: fundraising and competitive spend across the sector can compress margins and extend the timeline to durable profitability (a theme that keeps appearing around block-deal coverage). ^[22]
Technical breakdown risk: several analyses repeatedly point to the ~₹283 region (200-day area) as a “line in the sand” level traders monitor. ^[23]

Bottom line on 12.12.2025

Eternal’s move on 12.12.2025 looks like a classic “news + levels” moment: a stock still well off its October highs is bouncing as daily stock-pick lists circulate, ESG headlines linger, and the market keeps one eye on where institutions last traded size. ^[27]

The forecasts are broadly optimistic, but the analysis is also unusually consistent on one point: Eternal doesn’t need just a bounce—it needs confirmation (through sustained price action and improving profitability visibility) to fully reset the narrative from “correction” back to “trend.” ^[28]
