Coffee Day is among the top three gainers since the opening bell today; from its close of Rs.36.24, it opened at Rs.38.23 and rose to an intraday high at Rs.39.86, with more buyers on the counter currently.

The sudden interest in the stock is on account of veteran investor, Dolly Khanna picking up stake in the company – the recently released shareholding pattern for Q1FY26 shows at that ay end of 30th June 2025, Dolly held almost 33 lakh shares, which is 1.55 stake in the parent company, Café Coffee Day.

Dolly Khanna is known for identifying beaten-down, under-the-radar companies with turnaround potential;  her entry often signals perceived deep value or restructuring play.
