ITC shares have been falling in the last six months, as analysts remain increasingly worried over the levies and taxes paid by the company. To compound worries is that the FMCG business has not been very robust and so has the hotels business.

ITC is a stock that has a heavy weightage in the Sensex and any sharp drop in the Sensex results in a drop in the share price of the company.
