Top Traded by Volume Today 08-Jul-2026: NSE Stocks
Introduction
Nifty 50 ended at 24,398.70 (-0.13%) while the BSE Sensex slipped to 78,180.7 (-0.13%), as traders booked profits ahead of the Fed minutes and with crude-related risk in focus due to US-Iran tensions mentioned in the market context. Market breadth stayed tilted to the downside in the latest available exchange statistics, with 1,578 advances versus 1,769 declines. High volumes were concentrated in telecom, financials and high-beta retail names, with stock-specific triggers led by PC Jeweller’s debt-repayment update.
Large Cap Top Traded by Volume
Vodafone Idea Ltd (+0.58%) Vodafone Idea stayed among the most traded counters as the stock continued to attract positioning around its turnaround narrative highlighted in recent public discourse. The share held in the green even as the broader tape was soft, and the day’s activity stood out with 44.72 crore shares traded, pointing to aggressive churn near the stock’s 52-week band (high: Rs 15.35, low: Rs 6.12).
Eternal Ltd (-1.00%) Eternal slipped on heavy volumes, indicating active profit-taking and re-positioning rather than a single company announcement in the provided data. The stock’s trade count remained elevated at 6.23 crore shares, suggesting institutional and trader-led rotation in a weak-to-flat market session.
HDFC Bank Ltd (-2.27%) HDFC Bank declined alongside weakness in the broader financial space shown in the sectoral readings (Nifty Financial Services 25/50 down 0.42% in the context data). The nearly 4 crore shares traded indicated a high level of delivery and derivatives-linked churn as investors trimmed exposure in large financials during a cautious session.
Canara Bank (-3.16%) Canara Bank fell sharply amid broad-based selling pressure in banking names, consistent with the day’s defensive tilt and the financial-services index decline highlighted in the market context. Volume of 3.97 crore shares pointed to heavy unwinding, with the stock still well off its 52-week high of Rs 162.90.
Jio Financial Services Ltd (-5.18%) Jio Financial Services saw a steep cut as traders reduced risk in high-beta financial names, and the move was amplified by high turnover of 3.88 crore shares. The stock’s fall also brought it closer to its 52-week low zone (Rs 223.30), which typically increases trading activity due to stop-losses and short-term technical flows.
Mid Cap Top Traded by Volume
Physicswallah Ltd (-1.91%) Physicswallah traded at very high volumes (9.10 crore shares) as the stock cooled off after recent sharp moves highlighted in the external context around its trading range near the upper end of the 52-week band (high: Rs 162.05). With no fresh company update in the provided database news, the decline looks driven by near-term de-risking and profit-taking, visible in the scale of turnover.
Yes Bank Ltd (-2.54%) Yes Bank slipped with 9.08 crore shares traded, showing substantial churn in a high-liquidity mid-cap bank counter during a weak session for financials. The stock remains close to its 52-week high zone (Rs 25.77), and the pullback suggests traders used strength to pare positions rather than add.
Suzlon Energy Ltd (-2.35%) Suzlon fell on heavy trading volumes of 7.17 crore shares, consistent with a risk-off day where high-beta thematic names tend to see sharper swings. In the absence of a specific fresh corporate trigger in the supplied news, the move appears technical, with the stock still below its 52-week high of Rs 68.30.
Swiggy Ltd (-1.65%) Swiggy declined as investors continued to recalibrate exposure to internet and platform businesses, with 3.91 crore shares changing hands. The stock’s distance from its 52-week high (Rs 473.00) kept trading activity elevated as market participants reassessed valuation and near-term growth visibility in a cautious tape.
Ashok Leyland Ltd (-4.88%) Ashok Leyland dropped nearly 5% on 2.72 crore shares traded, indicating aggressive selling rather than a low-liquidity slide. With no stock-specific news provided, the move points to a sharp risk reduction in cyclicals, where even modest macro caution can lead to outsized single-day cuts.
Small Cap Top Traded by Volume
PC Jeweller Ltd (+2.34%) PC Jeweller rose after the company said it repaid dues to two consortium banks under a 30 September 2024 settlement framework, and management reiterated it is targeting debt-free status in the current quarter. Investors reacted to the improved balance-sheet trajectory and also took cues from the company’s update that Q1 FY27 revenue grew 21% year-on-year. The counter also topped the volume charts with 63.78 crore shares traded, underlining strong retail participation following the debt-repayment headlines.
Vedanta Oil and Gas Ltd (+1.78%) Vedanta Oil and Gas stayed active with 11.64 crore shares traded as the market continued to price the post-demerger listing dynamics referenced in the external context. The stock’s elevated turnover reflects ongoing discovery trading in a newly listed entity, with investors tracking the business separation from Vedanta Ltd and its impact on standalone valuation.
Cupid Ltd (-11.94%) Cupid slumped nearly 12% on a very high 8.63 crore shares traded, suggesting the fall was driven by aggressive supply rather than a low-volume drift. With no fresh company-specific news provided, the scale of the decline and turnover indicates a technical breakdown and forced selling, typically triggered by stop-losses after a sharp move away from recent highs (52-week high: Rs 225.90).
Ola Electric Mobility Ltd (-3.28%) Ola Electric fell with 7.80 crore shares traded as investors trimmed exposure to high-beta EV names amid a cautious broader market. With no corporate update supplied in the database, the day’s move appears driven by trading-led risk reduction and technical pressure, with the stock still far below its 52-week high of Rs 71.24.
South Indian Bank Ltd (-8.51%) South Indian Bank dropped over 8% on 7.69 crore shares, marking one of the sharpest cuts among the most active small-cap names. In the absence of a specific news trigger in the provided inputs, the move aligns with broader financial-stock weakness and suggests a heavy unwinding day, especially as the stock had been trading close to its 52-week high zone (Rs 49.90).
Market Overview
Indian equities ended marginally lower, with Nifty 50 at 24,398.70 (-0.13%) and Sensex at 78,180.7 (-0.13%) based on the provided market context, as late-session profit-taking interrupted a multi-day run-up. The macro backdrop cited in the context remained mixed: rising oil prices linked to US-Iran tensions added caution, while improving monsoon expectations and the approach of the earnings season kept stock-specific action active.
On sectors, the context data showed a clear split: Nifty FMCG was down 1.64%, while Nifty IT was down 0.41% and Nifty Financial Services 25/50 slipped 0.42%. Despite the mild index move, trading activity stayed intense in select counters, with the “most active equities” list led by PC Jeweller, Vodafone Idea and Vedanta Oil and Gas.
Market breadth in the latest available exchange statistics remained negative, with 1,578 stocks advancing against 1,769 declines, alongside 146 stocks at 52-week highs and 41 at 52-week lows. Total equity market turnover in the latest available turnover snapshot stood at 465.59 crore shares, underlining that volume leadership today was driven by concentrated participation in a handful of high-liquidity names.
