Introduction

Nifty 50 ended at 23,985.35 (-0.04%) while the Sensex closed at 76,765.92 (-0.09%) on 29 Jul 2026, after giving up early gains seen in the pre-open session. High-value turnover was concentrated in IT and private banks in large caps, while consumer and select industrial-technology names dominated mid and small-cap activity. The biggest single-stock reactions were driven by quarterly results and company-specific updates in select counters. FII and DII flow data was not provided in today’s market context.

Large Cap Top Traded by Value

Infosys Ltd (+4.50%) Infosys surged after the company made the Q1 FY27 press conference and earnings call transcript along with audio and video recordings available on its investor website. With results season in focus, investors used the full management commentary from the July 23 call to reassess the quarter, and the stock saw one of the strongest large-cap IT moves of the day. The rally came on heavy activity, with 3.78 crore shares traded, keeping it among the top traded by value.

Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (+1.99%) TCS advanced in tandem with the day’s stronger IT tape, with high-value trades indicating active positioning in frontline tech even as benchmarks ended flat. The move also reflected a recovery bias after the stock spent time closer to the lower half of its 52-week range (52-week low at Rs 1,976). Volume of 75.55 lakh shares kept it among the most actively traded large caps by value.

HDFC Bank Ltd (+1.74%) HDFC Bank rose as investors accumulated the stock near its 52-week low zone (Rs 726.75), supporting a rebound despite the Nifty closing marginally lower. The stock’s high turnover, with 2.20 crore shares traded, pointed to strong participation in private-bank names within the day’s value leader-board.

Eternal Ltd (+1.22%) Eternal gained modestly but stayed in focus due to very heavy turnover of 5.21 crore shares, suggesting active two-way institutional trading. The price move was consistent with a technical rebound within its 52-week band (Rs 212.55 to Rs 368.40), even as the broader market ended slightly in the red.

ICICI Bank Ltd (+0.71%) ICICI Bank added to gains as private banks remained relatively resilient in high-value trades during a subdued close for the indices. At Rs 1,438, the stock remained within reach of its 52-week high (Rs 1,494.10), and the 1.11 crore share volume signalled sustained interest in the name.

Mid Cap Top Traded by Value

Kalyan Jewellers India Ltd (+3.30%) Kalyan Jewellers moved higher on exceptionally strong traded activity, with 4.95 crore shares changing hands, as the stock pushed close to its 52-week high of Rs 634.20. With no specific company announcement provided in today’s dataset, the move was best explained by a momentum-driven chase into the counter as it tested a key breakout zone.

Swiggy Ltd (+7.02%) Swiggy rallied sharply with 7.96 crore shares traded, making it one of the most actively repositioned mid caps by value. In the absence of a verified news trigger in the provided feed, the strength looked driven by a technical rebound from the lower end of its 52-week range (low at Rs 235.85), with buyers pushing the stock higher through the session.

Coforge Ltd (+1.85%) Coforge gained alongside broader IT participation in the day’s high-value names, tracking the stronger tone seen in large-cap tech counters. The stock’s 89.41 lakh share volume indicated active participation even as headline indices ended marginally lower.

Suzlon Energy Ltd (-1.21%) Suzlon slipped despite being among the top traded by value, with a very large 24.09 crore share volume. With no company-specific news in the provided dataset, the decline pointed to profit-taking and position unwinds in a high-beta counter, reflected in the stock’s negative close even as turnover stayed elevated.

Steel Authority of India Ltd (+3.08%) SAIL rose on strong participation, with 4.80 crore shares traded, placing it among the most active mid caps by value. In the absence of a specific news catalyst in the provided feed, the move was consistent with a momentum-led swing in the stock as traders built positions during the session.

Small Cap Top Traded by Value

Paradeep Phosphates Ltd (+12.60%) Paradeep Phosphates jumped after reporting strong Q1 FY27 numbers and announcing a fresh capex plan to diversify revenues. Revenue rose to Rs 6,124 crore (+36% YoY) while PAT increased to Rs 393 crore (+24%), and the board approved an investment of about Rs 250 crore to set up a 15,000 MTPA Aluminium Fluoride (AlF3) plant at Paradeep. The results-led rerating played out in volumes too, with 18.03 crore shares traded.

Kaynes Technology India Ltd (+12.75%) Kaynes Technology surged on heavy buying as market participants reacted to reports around the company’s plans to expand across India’s semiconductor supply chain under India Semiconductor Mission 2.0 (ISM 2.0). With the stock already among the top traded by value in small caps, the day’s move was amplified by strong participation, with 67.64 lakh shares traded.

KPIT Technologies Ltd (+5.99%) KPIT Technologies rose after its Q1 FY2026-27 investor update, where it reported revenue of $176.8 million, EBITDA margin of 17.2% and total contract value wins of $157 million. Investors also took note of the net cash position of Rs 9.0 billion, which supported confidence in the balance sheet even as the update flagged forex loss and Qorix loss in the quarter. The reaction was backed by active trading, with 3.72 crore shares traded.

Firstsource Solutions Ltd (+11.76%) Firstsource Solutions posted a sharp single-day jump on very heavy activity, with 5.14 crore shares traded, keeping it among the most active small caps by value. With no verified company news provided in the dataset, the move was best explained by aggressive repositioning in the counter, with price strength indicating buyers outpacing sellers through the session.

Bluestone Jewellery & Lifestyle Ltd (+1.73%) Bluestone Jewellery & Lifestyle advanced on active turnover of 1.53 crore shares, suggesting steady participation in the stock among small-cap value leaders. In the absence of a news trigger in the provided feed, the move appeared driven by a consolidation phase below its 52-week high of Rs 872.60, with buyers supporting the stock on dips.

Market Overview

Indian equities ended nearly flat after early strength faded through the session. The Sensex slipped 69.86 points to 76,765.92 (-0.09%) and the Nifty 50 declined 10.60 points to 23,985.35 (-0.04%), reflecting a narrow, stock-specific market where earnings updates and heavy turnover names drove the day’s action.

Global cues were mixed: US markets closed with the S&P 500 up 0.21% while the Nasdaq fell 0.22%, and Asian risk appetite was pressured by a sharp sell-off in South Korean semiconductor stocks after SK Hynix’s profit miss. Against that backdrop, India saw selective buying in IT and private banks within the top traded by value list, while results-led moves dominated select small caps.

Advance-decline ratio and FII-DII flow numbers were not available in the provided context for today’s close.
