Large Cap Top Losers
[Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/bharat-petroleum-corporation-ltd-MBEQU5483) (-2.52%) BPCL slipped as higher crude oil prices raised concerns about near-term marketing margins for oil marketing companies. The broader oil and gas space also stayed under pressure in the session, keeping traders defensive on downstream PSU names.
[SBI Life Insurance Company Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/sbi-life-insurance-company-ltd-MBEQU4017) (-2.11%) SBI Life declined as financials weakened, with investors reducing exposure to rate-sensitive stocks amid the crude-led inflation overhang. The stock also ended at Rs 1,700, which matches its 52-week low in the provided data, intensifying technical selling.
[ICICI Bank Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/icici-bank-ltd-MBEQU5065) (-2.00%) ICICI Bank fell in line with a soft move in Nifty Bank (down 0.29%), as private banks faced selling in a cautious tape. The stock also saw heavy activity with 1.27 crore shares traded, indicating institutional churn during the decline.
[Axis Bank Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/axis-bank-ltd-MBEQU3393) (-1.72%) Axis Bank eased as traders cut positions in private lenders amid concerns that higher crude can pressure inflation expectations and keep the rate outlook tighter for longer. The stock remained one of the notable drags on banking indices during the session.
[Union Bank of India] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/union-bank-of-india-MBEQU1346) (-1.61%) Union Bank slipped as PSU banking names traded weak alongside private banks, reflecting risk reduction in financials during a down market. The fall came with active volumes of 60.19 lakh shares, suggesting broad-based selling rather than a low-liquidity move.
Mid Cap Top Losers
[New India Assurance Company Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/new-india-assurance-company-ltd-MBEQU2314) (-11.22%) New India Assurance tumbled after session updates cited a net loss of Rs 244 crore for the June quarter, triggering aggressive selling. The move was amplified by very heavy volumes of 4.76 crore shares, showing that the downgrade in earnings expectations was quickly priced in.
[IDBI Bank Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/idbi-bank-ltd-MBEQU5681) (-10.56%) IDBI Bank slid sharply as the broader banking pack stayed weak and the stock failed to hold its previous close zone near Rs 90, triggering stop-loss and momentum selling. The damage was accompanied by outsized volumes of 7.15 crore shares, pointing to large-scale unwinding rather than a routine dip.
[Voltas Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/voltas-ltd-MBEQU3452) (-2.74%) Voltas fell as consumer durables stayed under pressure in a cautious market, with investors avoiding discretionary names during the risk-off session. The stock closed near its 52-week low zone (low of Rs 1,142 versus close of Rs 1,144.80), which typically draws incremental technical selling.
[360 ONE WAM Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/360-one-wam-ltd-MBEQU2326) (-2.42%) 360 ONE WAM declined alongside weakness in financial services, as investors reduced exposure to market-linked wealth managers during a down day for benchmarks. Volume of 12.64 lakh shares indicated active rotation out of the stock rather than a thinly traded move.
[Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/hindustan-petroleum-corporation-ltd-MBEQU5041) (-2.36%) HPCL dropped as higher crude oil prices kept investors focused on near-term margin risk for oil marketing companies. The fall came with 35.40 lakh shares traded, reflecting broad participation in the sell-off across downstream PSU oil names.
Small Cap Top Losers
[Atal Realtech Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/atal-realtech-ltd-MBEQU4993) (-19.99%) Atal Realtech crashed to its lower circuit, with the price pinned at Rs 21.21 after opening higher and then sliding through the session range. The fall coincided with extremely heavy volume of 1.09 crore shares, consistent with forced selling in a lower-circuit move where buyers step back.
[DC Infotech & Communication Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/dc-infotech-communication-ltd-MBEQU5004) (-14.48%) DC Infotech sank as the stock extended its recent volatility and broke below the Rs 350 zone seen in the recent tape, leading to momentum-led liquidation. The sell-off came despite a scheduled corporate action on the calendar (a final dividend with ex-date shown as 11 Sep 2026 in the provided context), indicating traders prioritized price risk over the dividend.
[GSP Crop Science Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/gsp-crop-science-ltd-MBEQU6044) (-11.47%) GSP Crop Science dropped sharply as traders booked profits after a steep prior run-up highlighted in the supplied context (strong gains over the last six months). The stock also saw active trading at 26.09 lakh shares, suggesting distribution as it reversed from the Rs 600 area toward the day’s lower range.
[Jaysynth Orgochem Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/jaysynth-orgochem-ltd-MBEQU3282) (-9.99%) Jaysynth Orgochem slid close to the typical 10% band seen in many small caps, pointing to a circuit-like move where selling overwhelms bids. With volume at just 1.12 lakh shares, the drop also suggested limited liquidity on the way down.
[Bharat Global Developers Ltd] (https://www.multibagg.ai/stocks/bharat-global-developers-ltd-MBEQU452) (-9.97%) Bharat Global Developers declined nearly 10% in a sharp risk-off move in smaller names, where price swings can be amplified by thin order books. The fall came on modest volume of 2.88 lakh shares, signalling that even limited sell orders were enough to push the stock down sharply.
