Top gainers in the Nifty 500

ITI Ltd. topped the list, ending the day at +20.00%. Trading in the stock ran far above its 20-day average volume, the biggest spike of the session.

Reliance Industries also made the top 5 with a double-digit gain. Because of its weight in the Nifty 50, a move of that size in Reliance accounts for a large share of the index's rise on a day like this. Engineers India, Affle and Dixon Technologies completed the list.

Volume spikes worth a look

Several stocks traded many times their normal volume. Apart from the top gainers, Kirloskar Brothers, Motherson Sumi Wiring and Zen Technologies all saw unusually heavy activity. A volume spike shows interest, not direction, so it is worth reading alongside the price move.
