Top Traded by Volume Today 25-Sep-2026: Most Active NSE
Introduction
Nifty 50 ended at 23,140.50 (+0.34%) and the Sensex closed at 73,895.74 (+0.43%) on 25 Sep 2026, as gains in select large caps offset weakness across parts of the broader market. Market breadth was subdued, with BSE500 described as having more declines than advances, signalling caution beneath the headline rise. Trading activity clustered around telecom, banking, and high-beta retail counters, with Vodafone Idea, PC Jeweller and Ola Electric dominating volumes.
Large Cap Top Traded by Volume
Vodafone Idea Ltd (+1.06%) Vodafone Idea rose on heavy turnover as traders tracked reports around TRAI rule-related developments and ongoing funding chatter, including SBI-led financing progress referenced in market feeds. The stock remained close to its 52-week high zone (Rs 15.78), which typically draws momentum participation when liquidity is abundant. With 33.08 crore shares traded, the move was driven as much by event-led positioning as by the stock’s high retail and speculative participation.
ICICI Bank Ltd (-0.41%) ICICI Bank slipped marginally despite strong Bank Nifty performance, indicating stock-specific churn and rotation within large private lenders rather than a sector selloff. The stock’s high volume (3.35 crore) alongside a small price decline suggests profit-taking and rebalancing flows after prior advances toward its 52-week high (Rs 1,479.90).
Eternal Ltd (-0.36%) Eternal traded actively but ended slightly lower, reflecting two-way trade rather than a directional breakout in the absence of a fresh, company-specific trigger in the provided news set. The large volume (2.51 crore) alongside a modest decline points to intraday trading and derivatives-linked activity, with the stock still well below its 52-week high (Rs 368.40).
Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd (-0.47%) Kotak Mahindra Bank declined on active volumes as investors rotated within financials, with Nifty Financial Services up on the day while individual banking names diverged. The mild fall despite 2.07 crore shares traded indicates supply at higher levels and short-term repositioning rather than a broad-based banking risk-off.
HDFC Bank Ltd (+0.87%) HDFC Bank gained as the day’s leadership narrowed to large caps and financials, with Nifty Financial Services in the green and Bankex also higher in the session data. The stock’s strong activity (2.07 crore shares) suggests accumulation in a defensive, liquid banking name while midcaps remained under pressure.
Mid Cap Top Traded by Volume
Suzlon Energy Ltd (+0.10%) Suzlon finished nearly flat despite very high volumes (6.24 crore shares), signalling aggressive two-way trade rather than a clear directional view. With the stock hovering near its 52-week low band (Rs 38.17) versus a much higher 52-week high (Rs 61.45), today’s activity looked like short-term positioning and stop-loss driven churn.
PB Fintech Ltd (-3.68%) PB Fintech dropped sharply as selling pressure intensified near its 52-week low zone (Rs 1,115.10), a level that often triggers systematic risk reduction and technical stop-outs. The steep fall on 4.39 crore shares indicates forced de-risking into liquidity, aligning with the day’s broader midcap softness reported in index performance.
Meesho Ltd (-6.87%) Meesho slid on heavy volumes as the stock extended its pullback from the 52-week high (Rs 254.65), suggesting profit-taking and momentum unwinding. With 3.35 crore shares traded, the move points to a sharp reset in positioning rather than a low-liquidity drift.
Yes Bank Ltd (+0.09%) Yes Bank saw high retail-led activity but closed largely unchanged, reflecting a tight range session with buyers and sellers evenly matched. The 3.28 crore share volume highlights continued speculative interest in the counter even as broader midcaps were weak.
Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd (-1.79%) Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles fell as it traded close to its 52-week low (Rs 288.00), where repeated tests can attract incremental selling and cautious positioning. The decline on 2.40 crore shares suggests investors used liquidity to cut exposure while the broader midcap complex remained under pressure.
Small Cap Top Traded by Volume
PC Jeweller Ltd (-0.91%) PC Jeweller traded in extremely high volumes even after the company disclosed it has discharged over 99% of outstanding bank debt, completing repayments to 13 of 14 consortium banks and expecting to become debt-free within the month. The stock still closed lower, suggesting traders booked profits after a strong run that pushed it near its 52-week high (Rs 14.87), using the news as a liquidity event.
Ola Electric Mobility Ltd (-9.48%) Ola Electric tumbled after the company said it is seeking Board approval for a rights issue and scheduled a Board meeting on 28 Sep 2026 to consider fund raising via the rights route. Investors typically mark down stocks on dilution risk and near-term fund-raise uncertainty, which was reflected in the sharp drop on 20.60 crore shares.
Motisons Jewellers Ltd (-4.89%) Motisons Jewellers fell on heavy turnover as the stock cooled off after recently printing a new 52-week high, per the session context, encouraging short-term profit-taking. With 12.40 crore shares traded, today’s move looked like an unwind of momentum positioning rather than a low-volume slide.
Hero Motors Ltd (+20.00%) Hero Motors hit the 20% upper circuit and marked a fresh 52-week high at Rs 141.85, consistent with momentum-led buying highlighted in market feeds tracking the stock’s sharp post-listing move. The spike in volumes (11.89 crore shares) indicates aggressive participation and constrained supply into the circuit.
Anlon Healthcare Ltd (+9.95%) Anlon Healthcare surged to near its 52-week high (Rs 31.62) on unusually strong volumes (8.92 crore shares), signalling a breakout-style move. In the absence of a specific company update in the provided news set, the price action points to technical momentum and liquidity-driven buying.
