Large Cap Top Gainers

Siemens Energy India Ltd (+3.15%) The stock climbed as traders pushed it higher on a strong session for cyclicals and large caps, with buying concentrated in select heavyweights. Siemens Energy India also remained within range of its 52-week high (Rs. 3,966.80), a setup that often attracts momentum and breakout positioning. Volume stood at 5.11 lakh shares, supporting the move.

Axis Bank Ltd (+2.82%) Axis Bank gained as banking and finance stocks outperformed, reflected in Nifty Finance rising 0.56% and Bank Nifty adding 0.26% for the day. Investors rotated into liquid private banks as the benchmarks recovered, making Axis Bank one of the session’s key index supports. The move came with heavy participation, with 72.23 lakh shares traded.

Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd (+2.24%) Mahindra and Mahindra rose in line with auto stocks leading sector performance, with Nifty Auto up 0.89% and the group described as the strongest multi-stock segment in the session. The stock’s advance signaled continued preference for auto heavyweights even as the broader mid and small caps were mixed. Trading volume was 21.41 lakh shares.

Hyundai Motor India Ltd (+2.09%) Hyundai Motor India advanced as autos attracted incremental allocations, tracking the day’s sector leadership in Nifty Auto. The stock’s gains also reflected follow-through buying in large-cap auto names during a benchmark-led rebound. Volume of 16.08 lakh shares indicated active participation.

Asian Paints Ltd (+1.93%) Asian Paints rose as FMCG held up (Nifty FMCG up 0.40%) and the stock featured among the day’s key large-cap gainers cited in market snapshots. Its move also helped keep defensives in play despite a subdued broader-market tone. Volume was 4.52 lakh shares.

Mid Cap Top Gainers

Welspun Corp Ltd (+5.11%) Welspun Corp surged as it approached a fresh 52-week breakout, closing just below its 52-week high of Rs. 2,838.00. That near-high positioning typically draws momentum traders, especially when supported by strong volumes. The stock traded 29.43 lakh shares, reinforcing the breakout attempt.

Max Financial Services Ltd (+3.42%) Max Financial gained alongside broader strength in financials, with Nifty Finance outperforming at +0.56% on the day. The move suggested investors were adding exposure to financial counters beyond frontline banks during the large-cap led recovery. Volume stood at 37.15 lakh shares.

Info Edge (India) Ltd (+3.19%) Info Edge advanced despite a mixed IT and internet tape, as stock-specific momentum lifted select midcaps even while broader midcap indices were marginally lower. The rise came with 12.73 lakh shares traded, pointing to active positioning. The stock remained below its 52-week high (Rs. 1,420.00), leaving room for traders to target a retest.

Supreme Industries Ltd (+2.92%) Supreme Industries climbed as investors accumulated industrial and consumption-linked names during the benchmark rebound. While still below its 52-week high (Rs. 4,369.30), the up move indicated buyers were stepping in at current levels after recent weakness. Trading volume was relatively light at 1.18 lakh shares.

Bank of Maharashtra (+2.89%) Bank of Maharashtra rose in line with the day’s strength in banking stocks, supported by gains in Bank Nifty (+0.26%). The counter also saw high activity for a midcap bank, with 1.32 crore shares traded. The move kept the stock closer to its 52-week high of Rs. 94.50.

Small Cap Top Gainers

Allied Digital Services Ltd (+20.00%) Allied Digital hit the upper circuit amid a sharp jump in trading activity, indicating a momentum-led move rather than a headline-driven re-rating. The available market data showed trading far above recent average volumes, which typically triggers follow-on buying in small caps. The stock finished at Rs. 115.50 with 23.83 lakh shares traded.

Bharat Parenterals Ltd (+20.00%) Bharat Parenterals jumped to the upper circuit after the company disclosed that its board will meet on 29 Sep 2026 to consider and possibly approve equity fundraising via a preferential issue, and the trading window was closed until 48 hours after the meeting. Investors often bid up newly listed and lower-float pharma names ahead of capital-raise decisions when they expect the fundraising to support expansion plans. The stock ended at Rs. 1,895.10, matching its 52-week high, with 46,000 shares traded.

Hero Motors Ltd (+20.00%) Hero Motors locked in an upper circuit as post-listing momentum continued, with heavy volumes pointing to aggressive follow-through positioning. Market commentary in the session highlighted the stock’s sharp moves around its debut, keeping it on traders’ radar. It closed at Rs. 141.85, also its 52-week high, on an exceptional 11.89 crore shares.

Mach Travel Solutions Ltd (+19.98%) Mach Travel Solutions rallied to just below the 20% mark, pushing closer to its 52-week high of Rs. 199.00. With no company-specific news provided, the move appears driven by a technical rebound and small-cap momentum, where near-52-week-high setups often attract short-term traders. Volume was 1.71 lakh shares.

Merritronix Ltd (+17.47%) Merritronix climbed as investors positioned ahead of the company’s scheduled management interaction at the Arihant Capital Bharat Connect Virtual Conference on 25 Sep 2026, where updates were expected in a group meet. Such events can act as near-term catalysts in smaller ESDM names because they increase information flow and can prompt re-rating attempts. The stock ended at Rs. 443.05 on 4.27 lakh shares.

Market Overview

Sensex ended at 73,855.11 (+0.37%) and Nifty 50 at 23,140.50 (+0.34%) as large caps carried the market, while the midcap and smallcap indices slipped marginally, reflecting a selective rebound rather than a broad risk-on session. India VIX fell to 12.22 (-3.73%), signalling lower near-term hedging demand even as participation stayed uneven.

On sectors, autos and financials led the upside with Nifty Auto up 0.89% and Nifty Finance up 0.56%, alongside gains in FMCG (+0.40%) and metals (+0.35%). IT and pharma were mildly lower on the day (Nifty IT -0.17%, Nifty Pharma -0.10%), aligning with the mixed cues highlighted in market reports.

Breadth on the Nifty 50 stayed narrowly positive at 27 advances versus 23 declines, but broader-market commentary pointed to more declines than advances across the BSE500, consistent with the day’s pattern of headline indices rising on the back of a narrower set of heavyweights.
