Eternal shares were up with a bang on Thursday, rising more than 7% in early trade following the company’s blockbuster Q3 results. At one point, the share price climbed 7.33% to ₹304.20 on the BSE, making it a great day for investors. Eternal was still up 2.45% at ₹290.35 by 9:25 AM, indicating some profit-taking but sustained momentum.

Deepinder Goyal Steps Aside: What’s Next For Eternal?
The twist in the saga that has created a stir on Dalal Street is the resignation of Deepinder Goyal from the position of MD & CEO of Eternal, which will be effective from February 1, 2026, but he will durably take the position of Vice Chairman and Director. It is something like passing the baton, only that he is fully observing the event. Goyal, whose leadership has been a key factor for Zomato and Blinkit during periods of rapid growth, will now focus on the company’s overall strategy and governance, while the new CEO handles the daily operations.
This situation has raised the question among traders and investors: will this leadership combo trigger the next big leap for the company, or is it just a soft pit stop before the full-on race?
