Its three-day average volume stood at around 1.47 crore shares, putting current activity at approximately 5.05 times the average. The screener also reported a 401.88% change in three-day volume.

This represents roughly 44.70 times the average volume, while the screener reported a 4,368% change in three-day volume. The sharp price rise and exceptional increase in trading activity make HBL Power the standout performer in this group.

Infosys

Infosys rose 4.62% to Rs 1,161.00, with trading volume reaching approximately 2.56 crore shares. Its three-day average volume stood at around 2.00 crore shares, placing current activity at approximately 1.28 times the average. The screener reported a 24.91% change in three-day volume.

Conclusion

HBL Power stood out with the strongest price gain and the highest volume-to-average ratio among the five selected stocks. Wipro also recorded a substantial increase in volume alongside a 5.95% gain. YES Bank had the highest absolute trading volume but declined 3.43%, while Billionbrains Garage and Infosys posted more moderate increases in activity.
Note: Unusually high volume can indicate increased market participation, but it does not guarantee that a price move will continue. Subsequent price action, support and resistance levels, and follow-through in later sessions remain important when assessing the trend.
