Why Most Active Stocks List Matters

The Most Active Stocks list offers a simple way to see where market participation is unusually high. A large volume often means that a stock is drawing greater interest from buyers and sellers, but it does not tell the whole story. PC Jeweller Ltd, for instance, was one of the day’s busiest counters even though its price declined. Looking at volume together with the price move gives a more useful picture of what happened during the session.

Conclusion

By 4:00 PM IST on September 17, 2026, Motisons Jewellers Ltd had emerged as the most actively traded stock in the provided list, with more than 23.62 crore shares changing hands. PC Jeweller Ltd was close behind, while IFCI Ltd and Vodafone Idea Ltd also saw sizeable volumes. SteamHouse India Ltd rounded out the top five and stood out for its 7.28% gain alongside heavy trading activity.
