Vedanta Iron & Steel Leads the Upper-Circuit List

Vedanta Iron & Steel was the largest company in the selected group by market capitalisation. The stock reached ₹28.45 during the session, the applicable upper price boundary, but eventually finished at ₹27.45, up 1.29% from the previous session.

This makes it an example of a stock that touched its upper circuit rather than one that remained locked there at the end of trading.

Bliss GVS Pharma reached an intraday high of ₹650.50 after entering the session with a previous NSE close of ₹619.55. The stock subsequently moved below the high.

Hero Motors similarly reached ₹125.52 during the session before closing at ₹122.72, representing a 2.65% gain over its previous close of ₹119.55.

Stocks That Touched Upper Circuit but Closed Below It

The distinction between an intraday circuit touch and a circuit close was important on 5 November.

Vedanta Iron & Steel, Bliss GVS Pharma, Hero Motors, D.P. Abhushan and ESAF Small Finance Bank all reached their applicable upper price boundaries but did not finish exactly at those levels.

ESAF Small Finance Bank, for instance, reached ₹43.41 before ending around ₹43.19, while its previous close was ₹41.35.

Stocks Recording the Largest Percentage Moves

Pokarna recorded the largest percentage move among the 10 stocks, rising 20.00% to ₹810.40. Its day's high and circuit ceiling were also ₹810.40.

CIAN Agro Industries & Infrastructure and Kabra Extrusion Technik each gained 5.00%, while Websol Energy System rose 4.99%.

An upper circuit represents the maximum upward price movement permitted for a security under its applicable daily price band. Reaching the circuit level describes the day's price movement and does not imply that the security will continue moving higher in subsequent sessions.
