The stock closed at 1058.90, up from its previous close of 1021.15. The overall surge in the banking sector pushed the stock upward, and the investors are waiting for institutional investors to meet, which will be rescheduled for December 4 and 5.
- Hero Moto Corp: The auto sector ended in green today, and this stock is the top Nifty gainer from the sector, rising 3.20% from yesterday’s closing price. The stability of oil prices is another reason behind the gain in auto sector stocks.
- M&M: Mahindra & Mahindra gained 3.06% today post rise in the auto sector. The positive sentiment in the domestic market also pushed the stock upward. It closed at 1614, up from its previous close at 1566.05. The company announced investors meet on 4 December, which is another factor working for the price gain.
- Wipro: With new launches like Continuous Compliance Solution and IT infrastructure for Stockholm Exergi AB, this IT stock gained 2.32% during today’s session. In addition, the stock price was influenced by the upswing in the IT sector to some extent.
- HDFC Bank: This stock went up 2.07% following the announcement of the upcoming investors meet and positive sentiments amongst investors especially in the banking sector today.
Top 5 Nifty Loser Stocks Today
Stocks | Previous day’s Closing Price | LTP | Change (%) |
ADANIENT | 2,423.50 | 2,394.00 | -1.22 |
ONGC | 193.95 | 192 | -1.01 |

- Adani Enterprise: After giving solid profits to the investors yesterday, this Adani stock ended in the red today. The stock lost 1.22% today and closed at 2394, becoming the top Nifty loser. It seems the profit booking has begun for the Adani group stocks after yesterday’s massive rise.
- ONGC: Though oil prices are stable comparatively, however, as the OPEC meeting is around the corner, oil & gas companies are sceptical, and so are their investors. ONGC lost 1.01% during today’s market session as oil prices inched up in the global market yesterday.
- Divi’s Lab: This pharma stock lost 0.81% today due to the usual market movement. The stock closed at 3792.85 today, lower from yesterday’s 3760.15.
- Nestle India: The FMCG stock dipped 0.58% and closed at 24078. This is due to the slow FMCG sector today.
- Eicher Motor: Even though the auto sector rose today, this auto stock ended in red with a dip of 0.44%. This dip can be from increasing oil prices and the upcoming investors meeting on 4 December that the company announced today.
Wrapping up
The overall market poured gains today, except for the realty, media, and consumer durables sectors. The banking sector has been a clear winner today, and most of the nifty gainers are from the sector itself.
