The median stock moved −1.4%. The largest rise among stocks without a recent corporate-action gap was ABDL (▲ up 8.5%) and the largest fall was MFSL (▼ down 9.8%); single-day extremes like these are often news- or results-driven.

By NSE industry group (equal-weight, groups with at least 4 stocks), the strongest groups were Healthcare (−0.6%, 43 stocks), Textiles (−0.6%, 5 stocks), Fast Moving Consumer Goods (−0.7%, 26 stocks). The weakest were Metals & Mining (−2.2%), Financial Services (−2.2%), Telecommunication (−2.1%). Group averages hide wide differences between members; the sector pages list every stock.
Delivery data showed 7 delivery spikes, meaning delivery % at least 1.3× the stock's own 20-session median on volume at least 1.5× normal. The largest was AIAENG at 93% delivery, 1.7× its usual level, on a ▼ down 0.4% close. There were also 8 churn days, where volume ran at least 2× normal but under 30% of it was taken for delivery.

Three notable footprints from our footprint engine: STARHEALTH: delivery spike on a green candle with heavy volume; AIAENG: delivery spike on a down candle with heavy volume; TBOTEK: 3+ sessions of above-normal delivery on a quiet tape. These describe what the data recorded today and say nothing about what happens next.
