Large Cap Top Traded by Value
Maruti Suzuki India Ltd (+1.69%) Maruti rose after Jefferies upgraded the stock to 'Buy' and raised its target price to Rs 16,500, citing easing macro risks and potential margin support from softer input costs. The brokerage call kept the stock among the most traded by value as investors repositioned into autos.
HDFC Bank Ltd (-0.28%) HDFC Bank was heavily traded after its Q3 results, with reports flagging a sharp adverse reaction that pushed the stock down as much as 9% at one point on the day. Investors focused on the lender’s earnings and outlook commentary, keeping the stock under pressure despite the small net close-to-close decline.
Eternal Ltd (+5.71%) Eternal climbed in high volumes as investors continued to track its recent performance updates around quick commerce and food delivery, which have been a key driver of the stock’s rerating. The strong move also reflected sustained interest in consumer internet names, with the counter among the day’s top value trades.
ICICI Bank Ltd (+0.20%) ICICI Bank inched up after the bank fixed the record date for a 600% dividend payout, a corporate action that typically pulls in near-term positioning. Trading activity was also supported by a brokerage note that listed ICICI Bank among top bank picks.
Infosys Ltd (-1.51%) Infosys slipped as IT stocks remained under pressure amid concerns around potentially higher US interest rates, a key macro factor cited for the day’s tech weakness. The stock also traded near its 52-week low zone (Rs 984), which can intensify hedging and risk reduction activity.
Mid Cap Top Traded by Value
Multi Commodity Exchange of India Ltd (+4.48%) MCX rose sharply on strong value turnover, with the move accompanied by higher volumes, indicating active institutional participation. With no specific company announcement in the provided feed, the rise appears driven by momentum buying in exchange-linked plays.
Meesho Ltd (-1.74%) Meesho declined despite being among the most traded by value in the midcap pack, suggesting active two-way trade and supply at higher levels. In the absence of a fresh news trigger in the provided dataset, the move points to profit-taking and positioning shifts in a high-liquidity counter.
Ashok Leyland Ltd (+2.92%) Ashok Leyland gained as autos outperformed in the broader market rotation, which supported buying in OEM names. The stock’s heavy traded value suggests investors were adding exposure ahead of sector catalysts such as monthly sales updates referenced in the market setup.
Ather Energy Ltd (-0.87%) Ather Energy edged lower in active trade, indicating caution after a recent run-up towards its 52-week high (Rs 1,177.25). With no specific company news in the input, the dip is consistent with incremental de-risking in high-beta EV plays.
Coforge Ltd (-6.47%) Coforge fell sharply as IT was among the weaker pockets tracked during the session, keeping investor focus on rate-sensitive and US-demand-exposed technology names. The steep drop alongside high volumes indicates aggressive selling in the counter during the day.
Small Cap Top Traded by Value
Rites Ltd (+13.86%) RITES surged after it secured a Rs 175.41 crore project management consultancy (PMC) order from Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, a contract win that directly improves revenue visibility. The rally was further supported by the company signing an MoU with CONCOR for logistics infrastructure consultancy, reinforcing the order pipeline narrative.
KPIT Technologies Ltd (-16.97%) KPIT Technologies tumbled in heavy trade as selling intensified near its 52-week low (Rs 555.30), a level that often triggers stop-losses and forced de-risking. With IT stocks facing pressure in the broader market context, investors cut exposure to high-beta tech names, pushing the counter sharply lower.
Ola Electric Mobility Ltd (+2.79%) Ola Electric rose on very high volumes, keeping it among the most traded by value in the smallcap list. In the absence of a specific company catalyst in the provided feed, the move reflects momentum-driven activity in the EV theme.
Saksoft Ltd (-7.33%) Saksoft slipped with high turnover, aligning with the day’s cautious tone in IT and technology-linked counters. With no fresh company news provided, the decline appears driven by risk reduction and technical selling.
Himadri Speciality Chemical Ltd (-4.92%) Himadri Speciality Chemical fell in active trade, indicating profit-taking after a strong run that had taken the stock closer to its 52-week high (Rs 718). In the absence of a new announcement in the dataset, the decline looks driven by valuation-led trimming at higher levels.
