Large Cap Top Traded by Volume

Billionbrains Garage Ventures Ltd (+3.15%)

The stock was among the most actively traded large-caps, witnessing a volume of over 6.56 crore shares. This high investor participation supported a price increase of over 3% by the end of the trading session.

HDFC Bank Ltd (-2.31%)

India's largest private sector bank saw heavy trading volumes of 5.39 crore shares as the stock came under selling pressure. The decline in the heavyweight contributor was a key factor in the Nifty 50 and Sensex closing in the red.

Adani Power Ltd (+1.65%)

Adani Power was a key focus for traders, with more than 4.55 crore shares changing hands. The stock managed to close with gains, reflecting continued investor interest in the power sector.

Eternal Ltd (-2.34%)

Tata Steel Ltd (+0.49%)

Tata Steel was actively traded with a volume of 4.00 crore shares. The stock ended the day with marginal gains, navigating a volatile session for the broader market.

Mid Cap Top Traded by Volume

Vodafone Idea Ltd (-0.87%)

Vodafone Idea topped the volume charts with over 43 crore shares traded, though it closed marginally lower. The high activity was driven by fresh concerns after some analysts cut price targets, citing the company's shrinking subscriber base, which tempered optimism from recent updates on its AGR reassessment.

Yes Bank Ltd (-0.53%)

Consistently a high-volume counter, Yes Bank saw nearly 8.88 crore shares traded during the session. The stock closed with a minor loss, reflecting the broader weakness in the banking sector for the day.

Suzlon Energy Ltd (-0.02%)

Suzlon Energy remained a trader favorite, recording a high volume of 8.73 crore shares. The stock closed almost flat, indicating a balance between buying and selling pressures throughout the day.

Meesho Ltd (+8.29%)

The stock surged over 8% on the back of unusually high trading volume of 6.41 crore shares. The significant price and volume breakout indicated strong buying momentum from investors, even in the absence of a specific corporate announcement.

Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (+4.25%)

BHEL shares gained over 4% with robust trading volumes of 3.31 crore shares. The move was part of a broader interest in PSU and capital goods stocks, which saw positive traction from investors.

Small Cap Top Traded by Volume

Ola Electric Mobility Ltd (+19.97%)

Ola Electric was the most traded stock of the day, surging nearly 20% to hit its upper circuit on massive volumes of almost 83 crore shares. The rally was triggered by the company's announcement of its new in-house 'Stepchange' LFP 46100 battery cell, a development investors believe could be a significant turnaround catalyst. The positive sentiment was further bolstered by a reported 150% increase in vehicle registrations for March.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd (+2.43%)

The stock was heavily traded with volumes nearing 15 crore shares, closing with gains of over 2%. This positive momentum appears to be a spillover effect from developments concerning its parent company, Jaiprakash Associates, where a resolution plan involving the Adani Group reportedly received creditor approval.

SEPC Ltd (+7.57%)

SEPC Ltd rallied over 7% on the back of strong trading volumes exceeding 10 crore shares. The stock has witnessed renewed buying interest over the past week, with the strong price and volume action indicating positive technical momentum.

PC Jeweller Ltd (-2.33%)

PC Jeweller witnessed huge trading volumes of nearly 10 crore shares but closed with losses. The activity suggests profit-taking from investors after the stock's recent sharp rally. The stock had gained 12% in the past week following the company's announcement of a robust 32% year-on-year increase in its Q4 revenue.

ITI Ltd (+10.08%)

Shares of ITI Ltd jumped over 10% accompanied by exceptionally high trading volume of 9.80 crore shares. The sharp upward move in both price and volume suggests a strong technical breakout that attracted significant interest from market participants.
