Top Gainers Today 03-Sep-2026: NSE, BSE movers

Introduction

Nifty 50 ended at 23,895.35 (down 0.08%) while Sensex closed at 76,585.72 (up 0.02%) on 03 Sep 2026, as a late pullback in banks offset weakness in IT. Financials and rate-sensitive names dominated the day’s winners list, mirroring Nifty Bank’s 0.50% rise, while Nifty IT was down about 1.10% in a mixed session. Volatility eased with India VIX at 11.27 (down 2.74%), helping pockets of small-caps lock into sharp one-day moves.

Large Cap Top Gainers

BSE Ltd (+4.36%) BSE Ltd climbed on a high-volume session with 60.36 lakh shares traded, coinciding with a market that saw active churn as Sensex stayed in the green while Nifty ended marginally lower. Exchange stocks typically react to expectations of stronger cash-market activity, and the day’s improved risk appetite was reflected in the stock’s sharp move.

Solar Industries India Ltd (+4.19%) Solar Industries rose as it traded close to its 52-week high of Rs 21,640, with investors pushing the stock back toward record territory after recent market volatility. The move came with 5.22 lakh shares traded, suggesting incremental buying as the stock held near a breakout zone.

Tata Motors Ltd (+3.03%) Tata Motors gained with heavy activity of 79.78 lakh shares, standing out on a day when Nifty Auto was near flat in the broader sectoral split. The strong volume alongside a positive close pointed to position-building and short-covering after recent swings in frontline names.

Life Insurance Corporation of India (+2.82%) LIC advanced as financials outperformed, tracking the broader strength in rate-sensitive pockets with Nifty Bank up 0.50% during the session. With 57.95 lakh shares traded, the stock saw sustained participation as investors rotated toward financial counters while IT lagged.

Cholamandalam Investment & Finance Company Ltd (+2.09%) Cholamandalam Investment climbed in line with the day’s financials-led tone, as banking and allied lenders held up the indices in an otherwise mixed market. The stock’s 8.21 lakh share volume supported the move, indicating steady accumulation in NBFCs alongside the upmove in Bank Nifty.

Mid Cap Top Gainers

Bank of Maharashtra (+5.27%) Bank of Maharashtra jumped as PSU banking counters remained in demand, aligning with the session’s broader trend of bank-led resilience (Bank Nifty up 0.50%). The move was backed by very strong turnover of 5.07 crore shares, signalling aggressive participation in the mid-cap PSU bank space.

Apar Industries Ltd (+5.20%) Apar Industries rallied as it moved closer to its 52-week high of Rs 18,432.40, keeping the stock in a strong uptrend. The gain came with 2.26 lakh shares traded, indicating buyers were willing to add at elevated levels near a potential breakout.

Welspun Corp Ltd (+4.92%) Welspun Corp surged on heavy volume of 44.12 lakh shares and finished just below its 52-week high of Rs 2,676, reinforcing the move as a momentum-driven push. The stock’s strength also matched a firmer tone in cyclicals, with Nifty Metal up about 0.41% during the session.

RBL Bank Ltd (+4.75%) RBL Bank climbed as investors added exposure to banking names amid the day’s clear financials tilt, which helped Sensex stay marginally positive. Trading activity was elevated at 2.10 crore shares, supporting the move as one of the most active mid-cap bank gainers.

Altius Telecom Infrastructure Trust (+4.36%) Altius Telecom Infrastructure Trust rose to Rs 179.50, matching its 52-week high of Rs 179.50, a key technical trigger for fresh buying. The move came with 4.75 lakh units traded, indicating a breakout-led session for the InvIT.

Small Cap Top Gainers

RBZ Jewellers Ltd (+20.00%) RBZ Jewellers hit a 20% jump and closed at its 52-week high of Rs 193.50, making the move primarily breakout-driven. The rally was accompanied by 1.20 crore shares traded, a notable spike that typically amplifies price moves in small caps when the stock pushes into a fresh 52-week high zone.

Birla Precision Technologies Ltd (+19.99%) Birla Precision Technologies surged nearly 20% as the stock extended a sharp recent upmove highlighted in the session data, with the Perplexity context showing strong short-term returns (including a steep one-month rise). Volumes of 13.58 lakh shares supported the near-upper-circuit move, consistent with momentum buying in smaller industrial names.

Jindal Worldwide Ltd (+19.98%) Jindal Worldwide rallied to the upper circuit and a 52-week high, after its subsidiary Jindal Mobilitric outlined plans to expand its EV retail network to around 100 showrooms across India by the end of FY28 (as cited in the Perplexity context). Investors treated the retail expansion plan as a concrete scale-up milestone, pushing the stock higher with very heavy volume of 11.53 crore shares.

Hikal Ltd (+19.97%) Hikal jumped close to 20% in a volume-led move, with 2.12 crore shares traded, indicating an aggressive one-day repositioning in the counter. With no specific company announcement provided in the available context, the magnitude of the move alongside high turnover points to a technical and flow-driven surge.

Artemis Electricals & Projects Ltd (+15.88%) Artemis Electricals & Projects gained sharply as the stock pushed above key near-term levels cited in the Perplexity context, including a 50-day moving average around Rs 15.50, which can trigger systematic and momentum-based buying. Volumes were 3.13 lakh shares, and the stock’s move reflected the typical liquidity-driven price expansion seen in smaller capital goods counters.

Market Overview

Indian equities ended mixed on 03 Sep 2026 after attempting a recovery from a three-day losing streak. Nifty 50 settled at 23,895.35 (down 0.08%) while Sensex closed marginally higher at 76,585.72 (up 0.02%), with Bank Nifty outperforming at 57,458.20 (up 0.50%). India VIX fell 2.74% to 11.27, signalling reduced near-term hedging demand even as sector leadership rotated sharply.

On the sector front, banks and rate-sensitive financials led the support, aligning with early session strength in PSU banks (up about 1.14%) and private banks (up about 1.12%). Realty was a clear outperformer (up about 2.47%), while IT remained the key drag (down about 1.10%); FMCG (down about 0.44%) and pharma (down about 0.17%) were also soft, keeping the headline indices capped.

The day’s winners list reflected this rotation: multiple banking names topped the mid-cap gainers, while several small caps posted near-20% moves driven by 52-week-high breakouts and unusually heavy single-day volumes. Advance-decline data and FII/DII flow figures were not provided in the supplied market dataset.
