Top Gainers Today 07-Aug-2026: NSE, BSE movers

Introduction

Nifty 50 ended near 24,566.95 (-0.28%) while the Sensex closed around 78,488.19 (-0.59%) as losses in financials outweighed strength in select pockets. Market breadth stayed negative with 1,865 shares advancing versus 1,934 declining, and India VIX rose 1.64%, pointing to higher risk hedging. Despite the weak benchmark close, IT and auto stocks featured prominently among gainers, aligning with NIFTY IT (+1.01% to +1.11%) and NIFTY Auto (+1.02%) being among the day’s stronger sectoral performers.

Large Cap Top Gainers

Siemens Energy India Ltd (+12.20%) Siemens Energy India rallied sharply as investors rotated into infrastructure and energy-linked names even as benchmarks stayed under pressure. The move coincided with NIFTY Infra (+0.3%) and NIFTY Energy (+0.37%) holding up better than the broader market, and the stock also saw strong participation with 85.23 lakh shares traded.

Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd (+9.25%) Samvardhana Motherson surged alongside the day’s auto outperformance, with NIFTY Auto rising about 1.02% in trade. The stock closed just shy of its 52-week high (Rs 169.40 vs Rs 168.25) on heavy volume of 12.01 crore shares, which reinforced the breakout-style move.

Grasim Industries Ltd (+4.00%) Grasim climbed as investors bid up building materials and capex-related plays within a relatively resilient infra tape. The stock ended close to its 52-week high of Rs 3,349, signalling momentum buying as it tested the upper end of its one-year range.

Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (+3.53%) TCS gained after IT stocks led the pockets of strength in an otherwise weak session, with NIFTY IT up about 1.01% to 1.11% during the day. The rebound also followed the previous session’s weakness where TCS featured among the Nifty losers, and volumes stayed elevated at 47.78 lakh shares.

Indian Bank (+2.98%) Indian Bank rose despite a softer banking tape, as NIFTY Bank traded down about 0.49% to 0.53% amid pressure on large private lenders. The stock’s advance on 45.73 lakh shares reflected relative strength and stock-specific accumulation versus the broader banking index.

Mid Cap Top Gainers

Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services Ltd (+5.07%) Mahindra Finance advanced as auto-linked names stayed in favour, with M&M cited among the session’s stronger Nifty constituents and NIFTY Auto up about 1.02%. The stock also neared its 52-week high (Rs 412.30) and traded 52.36 lakh shares, supporting the up move.

Aurobindo Pharma Ltd (+4.50%) Aurobindo Pharma rose to its 52-week high of Rs 1,661, signalling a fresh breakout in the counter. The move came with active trading of 21.22 lakh shares, suggesting momentum-driven buying despite a subdued broader healthcare index in the day’s sectoral readings.

Sona BLW Precision Forgings Ltd (+4.07%) Sona BLW climbed in sync with the auto pack’s strength, with NIFTY Auto in positive territory during the session. The stock ended close to its 52-week high of Rs 824.50 and saw robust volumes of 42.30 lakh shares, which typically supports trend-following trades.

JSW Infrastructure Ltd (+4.02%) JSW Infrastructure gained as infrastructure-linked counters held up better than the headline indices, with NIFTY Infra up around 0.3%. Volumes of 24.72 lakh shares indicated active participation as the stock attempted to extend its uptrend.

Manipal Health Enterprises Ltd (+4.00%) Manipal Health rose with steady buying interest reflected in 68.48 lakh shares traded. The stock moved closer to its 52-week high of Rs 691.65, indicating that investors were positioning around a potential range breakout.

Small Cap Top Gainers

Shivalik Bimetal Controls Ltd (+20.00%) Shivalik Bimetal hit the upper circuit after reporting a strong Q1 FY27, with consolidated revenue at Rs 182.2 crore (+33%), EBITDA at Rs 43.2 crore (+35%), and PAT at Rs 33.0 crore (+45%). Investors also reacted to the operational milestone of Pune Phase-I receiving Consent to Operate, and the stock marked a fresh 52-week high at Rs 920.25 on heavy volume of 64.59 lakh shares.

Sicagen India Ltd (+19.99%) Sicagen India jumped to near the 20% mark, indicating an upper-circuit style move in the session. With no company-specific database news provided, the rally was best explained by sharp momentum buying in a low-float counter, supported by an unusual volume spike (20.90 lakh shares) versus its typically thin trading noted in market commentary.

Artemis Electricals & Projects Ltd (+19.72%) Artemis Electricals & Projects surged close to 20% in a single session, consistent with an upper-circuit type move often seen in micro-caps when incremental demand hits limited supply. In the absence of database-linked announcements, the key observable trigger was the sharp price action backed by higher-than-usual turnover and a strong intraday climb from the Rs 14 zone to the Rs 17 area.

Visaka Industries Ltd (+13.79%) Visaka Industries rallied after the board approved audited Q1 results and declared an interim dividend of Re 1 per share with record date August 13, 2026. The stock also reacted to the company’s growth capex plan, including a Rs 175 crore investment for a 72,000 MT Tonk plant and a Rs 10 crore construction chemicals line at Tumkur, while volumes jumped to 1.47 crore shares.

Albert David Ltd (+12.83%) Albert David rose after multiple corporate updates including the board’s approval of unaudited Q1 FY27 financial results and the AGM outcome that included a dividend of Rs 5 per share. Investors also took note of management actions, including the regularisation and appointment of Amit Mahla as Whole-Time Director and CEO, with the stock’s move supported by higher activity than its recent average, as reflected in market commentary.

Market Overview

Indian equities closed lower on August 7, with Nifty 50 around 24,566.95 (-0.28%) and the Sensex near 78,488.19 (-0.59%). Volatility picked up with India VIX up 1.64%, while market breadth remained negative at 1,865 advances versus 1,934 declines, highlighting that gains were selective rather than broad-based.

Sector rotation was clear through the session: NIFTY IT (+1.01% to +1.11%) and NIFTY Auto (+1.02%) outperformed, helping counters like TCS and auto-linked names stay bid. In contrast, banking and financial services weighed on benchmarks, with NIFTY Bank down about 0.49% to 0.53% and commentary pointing to sharp declines in large financial names.

Broader indices were mixed, with NIFTY Midcap 150 up about 0.17% while NIFTY Smallcap 100 hovered slightly lower (-0.05%). That divergence also showed up in the day’s standout movers, where several small-cap names hit upper circuits on earnings and corporate action triggers.
