The move stood out on strong activity of 1.35 crore shares, indicating institutions and traders were active in the counter after a short-term dip.

Reliance Industries Ltd (-0.55%) Reliance slipped even as the benchmarks rose, as the stock continued to trade near its 52-week low zone (52-week low at Rs 1,160.40, close at Rs 1,170.80). The underperformance reflected continued caution after the prior session’s broad risk-off move referenced in the market context, keeping investors selective within energy heavyweights. Despite the decline, turnover remained high with 1.42 crore shares traded.

Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd (+0.32%) Kotak edged up alongside the broader banking rebound, with Nifty Bank closing 1.36% higher. High-value churn was evident with 3.51 crore shares traded, suggesting active repositioning in lenders after the volatile week described in the broader market context.

Infosys Ltd (+3.01%) Infosys rose in sync with the IT pack after TCS set the tone for the earnings season and Nifty IT surged 3.02% on the day. Investors typically read-through sector results into peer names, and the stock’s gain came with heavy turnover of 1.46 crore shares, keeping it among the most actively traded large caps by value.

Mid Cap Top Traded by Value

Cupid Ltd (+2.62%) Cupid gained as the stock traded just shy of its 52-week high of Rs 368.05, drawing momentum traders to a near-breakout setup. The counter also saw unusually heavy activity at 3.91 crore shares, keeping it among the top value names in mid caps.

GMR Airports Ltd (+4.74%) GMR Airports surged on strong participation, with 10.74 crore shares traded, pointing to aggressive accumulation and short-term trading interest. The move aligned with risk-on rotation into cyclicals and transport-linked names during the day’s rebound captured in the benchmark index performance.

One 97 Communications Ltd (-0.21%) Paytm (One 97 Communications) was flat-to-negative despite being among the most traded by value, indicating two-way trade and profit-taking at higher levels. The stock remains closer to its 52-week high (Rs 1,856.50) than its 52-week low (Rs 947.10), and Friday’s action looked more like consolidation than trend reversal.

Steel Authority of India Ltd (+2.76%) SAIL rose on a sharp rebound-style move with 4.34 crore shares traded, signalling fresh positioning despite a mixed tape for cyclicals in the broader market narrative. The gain suggests investors selectively added exposure to liquid PSUs during the bounce-back session.

Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd (+4.60%) Colgate rallied as investors rotated into FMCG, with Nifty FMCG ending up 2.19% and defensives seeing renewed demand after the prior day’s selloff referenced in the context.

Small Cap Top Traded by Value

The earlier IPO demand backdrop, with subscription of 98.46 times, also kept momentum traders active in the counter. Trading volume stayed extremely high at 48.31 crore shares, underlining speculative and institutional participation.

Hexaware Technologies Ltd (+5.69%) Hexaware climbed as IT stocks outperformed, with Nifty IT up 3.02%, and as company-specific AI-related headlines were in focus in the session’s coverage. Reports cited a collaboration under the Project NANDA Fellowship to advance AI agents, and brokerage commentary reiterating a Buy with a higher target (Rs 720), giving investors a concrete trigger alongside the sector move. Volume was elevated at 3.28 crore shares.

PC Jeweller Ltd (+6.40%) PC Jeweller extended gains after reports highlighted a 28% year-on-year September-quarter revenue growth and recoveries from export debtors, keeping the turnaround narrative in focus. The update brought fresh buying interest in a high-beta counter, reflected in the day’s outsized volume of 93.40 crore shares.

Kanohar Electricals Ltd (-3.95%) Kanohar Electricals fell as traders booked profits after the stock’s earlier run brought it close to its 52-week high of Rs 1,210. The decline came on heavy activity of 1.19 crore shares, suggesting distribution and stop-loss selling into weakness.

Inox Green Energy Services Ltd (+11.60%) Inox Green jumped on high activity of 7.64 crore shares as investors chased renewable and wind-energy linked names, supported by the broader risk-on rebound in equities during the session.
