Large Cap Top Traded by Value

ICICI Bank Ltd (-0.41%) ICICI Bank slipped even as it stayed among the most value-traded stocks, with the broader financial space seeing caution after the proposed limits on insurance-related practices highlighted regulatory overhang risks for financial distribution. The stock also featured among the session’s key Nifty losers, indicating profit-taking in a heavyweight that has been a liquidity magnet.

National Stock Exchange Of India Ltd (-1.39%) NSE shares fell after failing to hold early levels, with the stock trading in a tight band near the day’s lows (around 1,790-1,830, as per the session range cited in market data). The move looked like a bout of profit-taking in market-infrastructure names amid choppy broader trade, even as turnover stayed elevated.

Reliance Industries Ltd (+0.57%) Reliance gained as investors leaned on index heavyweights to keep benchmarks in the green during a volatile session. Elevated crude prices around $106 a barrel kept energy in focus, supporting attention on large integrated plays in the traded-by-value basket.

HDFC Bank Ltd (+0.87%) HDFC Bank rose as private banks outperformed on the day, helping lift the Bank Nifty into positive territory. The stock’s high traded value reflected continued institutional positioning in liquid banking names as a defensive anchor while IT stayed weak.

BSE Ltd (+0.24%) BSE edged up as market infrastructure names remained actively traded amid heightened day-to-day volatility and strong participation. The stock’s presence among the top value counters underscored sustained churn in exchange-related plays during a week marked by sharp single-stock moves.

Mid Cap Top Traded by Value

PB Fintech Ltd (-3.68%) PB Fintech fell again as regulatory worries persisted after IRDAI’s proposal to curb “dark patterns” on insurance websites, which could change how platforms display pricing and collect customer details. The continued drop followed the prior session’s sharp sell-off and was accompanied by heavy volumes and block activity, reflecting rapid repricing of the business impact flagged by investors and analysts.

Multi Commodity Exchange of India Ltd (-2.95%) MCX declined after recently trading close to its 52-week high (3,479.80), indicating profit-taking after a strong run. The counter still remained among the day’s top traded-by-value mid caps, suggesting active two-way positioning rather than a liquidity freeze.

Welspun Corp Ltd (+5.11%) Welspun Corp rallied as the stock pushed to the edge of its 52-week high zone (2,838), drawing momentum traders into a near-breakout setup. The move also aligned with pockets of strength in industrial and export-linked names highlighted in the session’s broader market chatter.

Meesho Ltd (-6.87%) Meesho dropped sharply on high turnover, extending a corrective move from its recent highs (52-week high 254.65). With no company-specific update in the provided data, the size of the fall alongside heavy traded value pointed to de-risking and profit-taking by short-term holders.

Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd (-1.79%) Tata Motors PV slid toward its 52-week low area (288) after failing to sustain a rebound, keeping the counter under technical pressure. The stock still featured among the top value-traded mid caps, signalling active churn as traders reassessed risk in auto-linked names.

Small Cap Top Traded by Value

SS Retail Ltd (-10.45%) SS Retail sank amid sharp post-listing volatility after the company’s stock market debut on 23 September 2026, as early investors and traders adjusted positions. The deep fall alongside very high volume suggested aggressive profit-taking and risk reduction typical of newly listed counters with large intraday swings.

Whirlpool of India Ltd (+7.30%) Whirlpool of India jumped after the company clarified a report around its promoter’s intent to sell shares, stating that discussions related to the promoter and the company was not a party to negotiations, with no material impact expected. The clarification reduced uncertainty that had driven sharp moves earlier in the week, and the stock saw heavy traded value as traders repositioned.

Hero Motors Ltd (+20.00%) Hero Motors locked at a 20% jump, hitting its 52-week high at 141.85, a move consistent with an upper-circuit style surge. The spike came with exceptionally high volumes, indicating a momentum-driven breakout that pulled in aggressive buying interest in a widely traded small-cap counter.

Shanti Gold International Ltd (+14.73%) Shanti Gold International climbed as it moved toward its 52-week high band (333), with strong volumes supporting the upmove. With no specific company update in the provided inputs, the price action pointed to a technical breakout-led rally in a high-churn small-cap name.

Antelopus Selan Energy Ltd (+11.76%) Antelopus Selan Energy advanced in active trade, moving closer to its 52-week high (1,288) on strong volumes. Elevated crude oil prices in the day’s macro backdrop kept energy names on investors’ radar, aiding momentum in related counters.

Market Overview

Nifty 50 settled at 23,119.80 (+0.25%) and the Sensex at 73,868.67 (+0.39%), as heavyweight banks and select index leaders helped the market close higher despite intraday volatility. Bank Nifty ended higher (up 0.22% in the day’s data), while Nifty IT stayed in the red (down 0.35% in the day’s data), reflecting continued pressure on technology stocks as global bond yields remained elevated.

Macro cues stayed mixed, with crude oil holding around $106 a barrel, keeping focus on inflation and India’s import bill. In stock-specific policy news, the IRDAI proposal to curb “dark patterns” in insurance distribution continued to ripple through financial and platform-linked names, with PB Fintech remaining a key laggard and among the most traded by value.

Volatility cooled through the session, with India VIX reported lower (down 3.73%), even as churn remained high in both large-cap financials and select small caps. FII and DII flow data and a formal advance-decline ratio were not provided in the day’s inputs.
