Top Traded by Value Today 03-Jul-2026: Key Movers

Introduction

Nifty 50 closed at 24,314 (+0.57%) while the Sensex ended 261 points higher, as gains in IT, pharma and realty were partly offset by a sharp sell-off in select capital goods names. Market breadth was positive with 2,225 advances against 1,145 declines (82 unchanged). The most-active counters by value featured heavy churn in financials and IT, while policy-linked headlines drove steep moves in power equipment and capital goods. Despite FII net selling, domestic institutions absorbed the pressure with DII inflows of Rs 1,784 crore, according to the market update.

Large Cap Top Traded by Value

CG Power & Industrial Solutions Ltd (-6.87%) CG Power dropped as capital goods and power equipment stocks sold off after reports that the Centre may cut import duties on key equipment, raising concerns over pricing power and margins. The same policy chatter also increased fears of heightened competition in domestic tenders, which investors typically treat as negative for order books and profitability. The stock also saw heavy value turnover with 2.67 crore shares traded, underscoring broad-based unwinding in the segment.

Hitachi Energy India Ltd (-8.16%) Hitachi Energy fell sharply after reports linked the day’s slide in heavy electricals to two triggers: a potential import duty cut on key equipment and the government allowing four Chinese manufacturers with Indian plants to bid for critical power tenders. Investors reacted by de-rating the sector on the risk of intensified competition and weaker realizations in upcoming project bids. The stock stayed among the most traded by value even as it moved away from its 52-week high of Rs 38,800.

HDFC Bank Ltd (+0.60%) HDFC Bank edged higher as the stock came into focus ahead of the Q1FY27 earnings season, with results scheduled for July 18 alongside other large private lenders. Investors typically position for earnings-linked cues around loan growth and net interest margin commentary, keeping the stock active by value. Volumes were strong at 2.74 crore shares, highlighting heightened participation in frontline banking.

ICICI Bank Ltd (+0.74%) ICICI Bank advanced as investors tracked the upcoming Q1FY27 result date (July 18) for key private banks, keeping banking names in active rotation. With earnings season approaching, traders often recalibrate positions based on expectations of credit growth and asset-quality trends, supporting the price move. The counter was among the day’s top value traded with 1.38 crore shares changing hands.

GE Vernova T&D India Ltd (-8.91%) GE Vernova T&D slumped in line with the broader sell-off in power equipment names after policy reports flagged a possible import-duty cut and the reopening of bidding access to certain Chinese-linked manufacturers with Indian facilities. The market reaction reflected concerns that increased competition could pressure bid pricing and execution margins for domestic suppliers. Elevated trading activity at 40.77 lakh shares pointed to aggressive risk reduction in the sector.

Mid Cap Top Traded by Value

PB Fintech Ltd (-5.25%) PB Fintech slid after large block deals and stake-sale chatter hit the tape, with reports pointing to Macritchie Investments as a likely seller. About 1.08 crore shares (roughly 2.37% equity) reportedly traded in a pre-market block deal worth around Rs 1,741 crore at Rs 1,601 per share, while separate coverage said about 1.16 crore shares changed hands in two block deals. The high turnover reinforced the investor reaction that such supply can cap near-term upside, especially after recent gains.

Multi Commodity Exchange of India Ltd (-3.70%) MCX declined in a session where midcaps were relatively softer, with the Nifty Midcap 100 ending lower, and the counter saw heavy churn by value. With no specific stock disclosure in the provided news set, the move appeared driven by position unwinding amid elevated trading activity. The stock remained well below its 52-week high of Rs 3,479.80, signalling that traders stayed cautious despite the high turnover.

Lodha Developers Ltd (+5.17%) Lodha Developers rose as realty stocks outperformed, with the Nifty Realty index ending up 1.50% in the sector leaderboard. Investors typically rotate into real estate when the broader market is supportive and the sector shows relative strength, which was reflected in the day’s price jump. Volumes of 88.92 lakh shares also indicated strong participation in the move.

Persistent Systems Ltd (+2.16%) Persistent Systems gained as IT stocks extended their recovery, with the Nifty IT index up 2.36% as tech led the day’s sectoral advances. The investor response reflected a continued rebound trade in IT after recent weakness, lifting several software services names. Persistent also featured among the top value-traded midcaps, indicating active institutional and trader interest.

Aegis Logistics Ltd (+0.54%) Aegis Logistics inched up with the stock trading close to its 52-week high of Rs 1,347.75, a zone that often attracts momentum-driven flows. With no company-specific headline in the provided feed, the move was primarily supported by steady accumulation visible in the high value turnover and 49.32 lakh shares traded. The stock’s proximity to its peak kept it on investor watchlists.

Small Cap Top Traded by Value

Zensar Technologies Ltd (+10.62%) Zensar Technologies surged after IT stocks extended their recovery for a second straight session, with the Nifty IT index leading sectoral gains. The rally reflected investors adding exposure to beaten-down IT names as the sector bounce broadened beyond large caps. Trading activity was unusually heavy at 6.48 crore shares, reinforcing the momentum-driven nature of the move.

Apollo Micro Systems Ltd (+2.34%) Apollo Micro Systems rose on strong participation, with 3.77 crore shares traded, placing it among the day’s highest value counters in the small-cap pack. In the absence of a specific news trigger in the provided feed, the move was supported by momentum flows, with the stock trading near its 52-week high of Rs 466.70. The proximity to the peak often draws short-term traders looking for continuation.

Sumitomo Chemical India Ltd (+13.80%) Sumitomo Chemical India jumped in a high-volume session, with 3.10 crore shares traded, signalling aggressive accumulation. With no company-specific development in the provided news set, the move looked driven by a sharp momentum shift after the stock had been closer to its 52-week low (Rs 363.30) than its high (Rs 665). The jump also pushed the price above the Rs 500 mark, a level often watched by traders for follow-through.

Vedanta Oil and Gas Ltd (-4.11%) Vedanta Oil and Gas fell amid sector pressure, with the Nifty Energy index ending down 1.20% on the day. The counter saw extremely heavy volumes of 29.97 crore shares, pointing to significant churn and risk reduction. The stock stayed below its 52-week high of Rs 47.67 after the decline.

Vedanta Iron & Steel Ltd (-5.00%) Vedanta Iron & Steel dropped despite the broader Nifty Metal index finishing higher, indicating stock-specific supply rather than a sector-wide move. The fall came alongside very high volumes of 31.13 crore shares, suggesting intense selling and position reshuffling in the counter. The stock remains below its 52-week high of Rs 44.77 following the slide.

Market Overview

Nifty 50 ended at 24,314 (+0.57%) and the Sensex closed 261 points higher, extending the market’s advance with leadership from IT and other defensives. Breadth stayed supportive with 2,225 stocks advancing versus 1,145 declining, while upper circuits (34) were outnumbered by lower circuits (89), reflecting sharp stock-specific drawdowns in a few pockets.

On sector performance, IT led again with Nifty IT up 2.36%, followed by Nifty Pharma up 1.97% and Nifty Realty up 1.50%. In contrast, energy lagged with Nifty Energy down 1.20%, and PSU banks were notably weak with Nifty PSU Bank down 1.81%. The divergence showed that while the broader index held firm, policy and competition-linked headlines drove steep corrections in select capital goods and power equipment counters.

Flows also mattered. The market held up despite FII net selling, as DII buying of Rs 1,784 crore helped cushion the impact, according to the provided market update. The day’s leadership from IT and realty aligned with rotation into sectors showing stronger near-term earnings visibility and relative momentum.
