    \n
  1. BPCL:<\/strong> This Oil and Gas stock made the highest progress today. It gained 2.17% <\/mark><\/strong>during today\u2019s market session following the stability in crude prices. The stock has been moving from 340 to 350 for the 3 weeks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Power Grid Corporation: <\/strong>Today’s next top gainer stock is a power company \u2013 Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd. This stock grew 2.07%<\/strong><\/mark> today by the end of the day\u2019s session, mainly due to the surge in demand due to the festive season.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Coal India: <\/strong>Today’s third top gainer is from the oil, gas, and consumable fuel sectors. This coal giant gained 1.76%<\/strong><\/mark> from the previous day\u2019s closing price of Rs. 312. The stock was on the list of top gainers yesterday as well. The continuous price surge is primarily due to the increase in its revenue from supplies to the power sector. Its supplies increased by 6% during this month\u2019s first two weeks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. SBI Life:<\/strong> This stock has been gaining throughout the day and finally closed at a high of 1.75%<\/mark><\/strong> compared to the previous day\u2019s closing. The price rise can be linked to today’s positive market sentiment<\/a>, especially in the financial services sector.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. HDFC Life:<\/strong> Another insurance company has made it to the top gainers today, and this stock has increased by 1.74% <\/strong><\/mark>during the day. The stock has been moving up the ladder as the company released its earnings call details with SEBI<\/a> last Friday.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Kotak Bank: <\/strong>This private sector bank has also increased as it announced the release date of its earnings calls on the 21st of this month. The stock gained 1.43%<\/strong><\/mark> during the day, reaching 1774.80 from its previous closing price of 1749.75.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Bajaj Auto:<\/strong> While the auto sector was flat during the day, one auto stock made it to the top gainer stocks today. Bajaj Auto\u2019s price rose as the investors seemed positive about the company’s upcoming results scheduled for release tomorrow. The auto stock has gained 1.31%<\/strong><\/mark> during the day and closed at 5143, up from yesterday\u2019s close at 5076.70. While the upcoming result is a reason for the price surge, one cannot miss that festive demands are picking up, which can be another reason for this stock to go up today.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The market has been volatile since the spike in the Middle East issue. However, today, the investors seem to be on a positive note, which pushes the market upward. It has also been linked to the stability of crude prices until now. Apart from the global<\/a> cues, the domestic stock market is also driven by the festive demands and corporate results in the pipeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
