The stock in focus is Indian Hotels Company Limited. It is one of the most valuable holdings in the Jhunjhunwala portfolio.

The value of her holding translates to around Rs 955 crore on Friday, February 17, Livemint reported citing Trendlyne data.
The Indian Hotel stock has witnessed a double-digit uptick in recent times. The stock has grown over 15.5 percent in the preceding 6 months. The hospitality company which is part of Tata Group recently posted its highest ever profit after tax in Q3 FY23, Rs 383 crore.
