Large Cap Top Losers

One 97 Communications Ltd (-3.08%)

No verified company announcement was supplied to link One 97 Communications' decline to a specific corporate event. The stock fell Rs. 51 to Rs. 1,604 as 63.22 lakh shares changed hands, making it the steepest faller in the large-cap list and indicating a materially active session.

Pidilite Industries Ltd (-1.69%)

Pidilite declined alongside the FMCG index, which was down 0.74% in the afternoon market update. The Rs. 25 fall to Rs. 1,451.90 occurred without a verified company-specific disclosure in the supplied news, with the sector sell-off providing the identified market trigger.

Bajaj Holdings & Investment Ltd (-1.65%)

Bajaj Holdings & Investment fell Rs. 181.25 to Rs. 10,832.95, with no company-specific news catalyst provided in the data. Its 85,780-share turnover points to a stock-specific decline during a session in which benchmark indices and heavyweight financial shares weakened.

State Bank of India (-1.55%)

SBI declined as the Nifty Bank index was down 0.71% and Nifty Financial Services was lower by 0.75% in the afternoon update. The bank shed Rs. 14.90 to Rs. 945.10 on volume of 1.12 crore shares, showing that the sector-wide banking retreat was accompanied by substantial activity in the counter.

Axis Bank Ltd (-1.53%)

Axis Bank's Rs. 18.80 decline followed the weakness in banking and financial-services indices. No separate company announcement was provided, while 71.33 lakh shares traded as the stock closed the session well below its Rs. 1,418.30 52-week high.

Mid Cap Top Losers

Aegis Logistics Ltd (-6.81%)

Aegis Logistics fell Rs. 87.95 to Rs. 1,203 as oil and gas stocks were among the weaker sectoral groups, with the Nifty Oil and Gas index down 0.69% in the market update. The company was also identified among the session's leading losers, and 33.82 lakh shares traded, supporting the breadth of the sell-off.

Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd (-6.60%)

Mazagon Dock dropped Rs. 123.95 to Rs. 1,755.05 despite the Nifty India Defence index having risen during the session, marking the move as stock-specific rather than a sector-wide reaction. No verified company disclosure was supplied, while turnover of 44.81 lakh shares accompanied the decline to a level close to the Rs. 1,691.10 52-week low.

Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services Ltd (-6.47%)

M&M Financial declined amid a broader pullback in financial services and banking, whose indices were down 0.75% and 0.71%, respectively, in the afternoon update. The stock lost Rs. 18.05 to Rs. 261.10 on 75.12 lakh shares, and finished only modestly above its Rs. 259.20 52-week low.

Hexaware Technologies Ltd (-3.96%)

Hexaware fell Rs. 23.45 to Rs. 568.85 as IT remained the weakest major sector, with the Nifty IT index down 0.77% in the afternoon and nearly 2% at other points of the session. No company-specific announcement was included in the provided data; the stock's decline tracked the sectoral pressure.

REC Ltd (-3.89%)

REC lost Rs. 11.60 to Rs. 286.40 as financial-services and banking stocks came under pressure. Volume reached 1.46 crore shares and the stock ended just above its Rs. 283.75 52-week low, reinforcing the technical weakness in the absence of a supplied corporate catalyst.

Small Cap Top Losers

Huhtamaki India Ltd (-11.20%)

Huhtamaki India fell sharply even after reporting Q3 2026 net sales of Rs. 7,481 million, up 23.7% year on year, and EBIT before exceptional items of Rs. 521 million. The market reaction shows that investors sold following the result announcement despite the reported revenue growth, pushing the packaging stock down Rs. 24.25 to Rs. 192.30 on 21.39 lakh shares.

Kirloskar Pneumatic Company Ltd (-10.14%)

Kirloskar Pneumatic plunged after reporting a 16% year-on-year decline in Q2 FY27 consolidated revenue to Rs. 326 crore and a 10% fall in PAT to Rs. 40 crore. Its MoU with Kobe Steel to explore oil and gas opportunities in India and selected export markets did not offset the immediate earnings disappointment, and 38.47 lakh shares traded as the stock lost Rs. 60.25.

Softtech Engineers Ltd (-10.00%)

Softtech Engineers hit its lower circuit at Rs. 423, the exchange-set floor for the session, resulting in a 10% fall. No official company announcement or verified external catalyst was available in the supplied information, so the move is attributable to sell orders reaching the price-band limit rather than a confirmed corporate event.

Hexa Tradex Ltd (-9.98%)

Hexa Tradex dropped Rs. 15.50 to Rs. 139.80, a fresh 52-week low, extending an established downtrend. The supplied context cited the stock trading below its key moving averages and underperforming NBFC peers; no verified company-specific announcement was provided to explain the sell-off.

Vishal Nirmiti Ltd (-9.96%)

Vishal Nirmiti fell to its Rs. 94 52-week low, with the supplied market data showing a near-10% session loss and a roughly 30.6% decline over five trading days. The stock's 29.98 lakh-share volume was unusually large relative to the prior sessions shown in the context, indicating sustained selling, though no fresh verified corporate catalyst was supplied.

Market Overview

The latest available afternoon update showed the Nifty 50 at 22,651.25, down 0.45%, and the Sensex at 73,210.75, down 0.54%. Selling in banks, financial services, IT and FMCG limited the market, while high oil prices and caution ahead of the US Federal Reserve policy decision were cited as broader drivers. Final closing values were not included in the supplied context.

Sector performance was divergent. Media led with a 2.63% gain, while pharma and realty rose 1.56% and 1.55%, respectively; auto also advanced 0.68%. In contrast, IT fell 0.77%, financial services declined 0.75%, FMCG lost 0.74% and the Bank index was down 0.71%, explaining pressure on lenders and technology names in the losers list.

Broader-market breadth remained constructive earlier in the session, with 2,658 shares advancing against 1,021 declining and 143 unchanged. The supplied context did not include FII or DII cash-market flow data.
