Today<\/a><\/a> closed with mixed but slightly positive participation on 13 August 2026, with 27 advancing stocks and 23 declining stocks in the 50-stock universe.<\/li>\n<li>The update was recorded at 3:59:57 PM IST. The equal-weighted constituent measure rose 0.07%, while the market-cap-weighted constituent measure slipped 0.10%.<\/li>\n<li>FMCG and Retailing were the strongest multi-stock groups, while Crude Oil was the weakest multi-stock group. Tata Consumer Products, Tata Motors and Hindustan Unilever featured among the leading movers.<\/li>\n<li>Hindalco Industries, ICICI Bank and UltraTech Cement led the declines. Next session, investors can track whether participation remains positive and whether heavyweight selling moderates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Market_summary\"><\/span><strong>Market summary<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Indian equities ended the session with a mixed undertone: more stocks rose than fell, but pressure in some large companies kept the market-cap-weighted picture marginally negative. For a normal retail investor, this points to selective strength rather than a uniformly strong market close.<\/p>\n<p>Within the 50 tracked constituents, 27 advanced and 23 declined, producing an advance-decline ratio of 1.17. The equal-weighted constituent change was up 0.07%, whereas the market-cap-weighted constituent change was down 0.10%. Total volume stood at 293,921,295 shares and estimated turnover was Rs 24,220.26 crore. The represented market capitalisation was Rs 197.9 lakh crore. This divergence shows that gains were spread across a modest majority of stocks, while weakness in influential names such as ICICI Bank and Reliance Industries weighed on the larger-capitalisation measure.<\/p>\n<p>The closing landscape was therefore defined by rotation. Consumer-facing names, select industrial stocks and a few defensives held firm, while metals, construction materials and selected heavyweight financial and energy shares faced pressure. The latest reading is available on <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\">Univest Market View<\/a><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_did_the_market_move\"><\/span><strong>Why did the market move?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Available price action points to stock-specific and sector-specific rotation rather than a one-directional move across the entire universe. Consumer strength was visible in Tata Consumer Products, which gained 2.69%, and Hindustan Unilever, which rose 1.41%. FMCG, a three-stock group, advanced 0.87%, helped by ITC\u2019s 0.85% gain, while Nestle India was nearly unchanged at -0.01%.<\/p>\n<p>Infrastructure and industrial participation was constructive in the available universe. Larsen &amp; Toubro gained 1.26% in Infrastructure, while Bharat Electronics added 1.18% in Capital Goods. Retailing also rose 0.86% across two advancing constituents, with Eternal up 1.26% and Trent up 0.10%. Tata Motors added 1.92%, and NTPC advanced 1.41%, reinforcing selective strength beyond consumer shares.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side, Hindalco Industries fell 2.99%, UltraTech Cement declined 1.56%, and Grasim Industries lost 1.54%. Banking sentiment was uneven: Shriram Finance gained 1.35%, but ICICI Bank declined 1.74% and finished close to its intraday low. In energy, Reliance Industries fell 0.90%, while ONGC gained 0.36%, leaving the two-stock Crude Oil group down 0.72%.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the session reflected constructive participation in several pockets, offset by concentrated weakness in selected heavyweight stocks and cyclically linked groups.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Market_breadth_analysis\"><\/span><strong>Market breadth analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The 27-to-23 advance-decline split gives the session a mildly positive breadth profile. An advance-decline ratio above 1.0 means gainers outnumbered decliners, although the margin was not wide enough to indicate decisive broad-based momentum. There were no unchanged constituents, which underlines active price movement across the tracked universe.<\/p>\n<p>The 0.07% gain in the equal-weighted measure is important because it gives each constituent the same influence. By contrast, the 0.10% decline in the market-cap-weighted measure indicates that declines in larger companies had greater influence on the overall closing tone. For investors following <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\/nifty50\">Nifty 50 Today<\/a>, this gap is a useful sign that participation was better beneath the heavyweight layer than the headline-weighted reading suggests.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sector_snapshot\"><\/span><strong>Sector snapshot<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Among multi-stock groups, FMCG was the strongest, gaining 0.87% with two advances out of three constituents. Hindustan Unilever and ITC provided the support, highlighting resilience in consumer shares. Retailing followed with a 0.86% rise, as both Eternal and Trent closed higher. These were the clearest areas of group-level positive participation.<\/p>\n<p>Crude Oil was the weakest multi-stock group, down 0.72%, as Reliance Industries\u2019 decline outweighed ONGC\u2019s gain. The remaining leading and lagging categories were represented by one constituent each; Tata Consumer Products led Agri by 2.69%, while Hindalco drove Non-Ferrous Metals lower by 2.99%. UltraTech Cement and Grasim also marked weakness in their respective single-stock categories.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_5_gainers\"><\/span><strong>Top 5 gainers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Stock<\/th>\n<th>Move<\/th>\n<th>Why it matters<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tataconsum\/tata-consumer-products-ltd-share-price-today\">Tata Consumer Products<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 1,090.50, +2.69%<\/td>\n<td>It was the strongest gainer and closed near its day high.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tmpv\/tata-motors-ltd-share-price-today\">Tata Motors<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 349.60, +1.92%<\/td>\n<td>The automobile stock ended near the higher end of its intraday range.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/hindunilvr\/hindustan-unilever-ltd-share-price-today\">Hindustan Unilever<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 2,092.00, +1.41%<\/td>\n<td>Its close at the day high supported the FMCG group.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ntpc\/ntpc-ltd-share-price-today\">NTPC<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 344.25, +1.41%<\/td>\n<td>The stock finished at its day high, indicating firm closing-session demand.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/shriramfin\/shriram-finance-ltd-share-price-today\">Shriram Finance<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 1,132.30, +1.35%<\/td>\n<td>It outperformed despite mixed action within financial stocks.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_5_losers\"><\/span><strong>Top 5 losers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Stock<\/th>\n<th>Move<\/th>\n<th>Why it matters<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/hindalco\/hindalco-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Hindalco Industries<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 1,046.25, -2.99%<\/td>\n<td>It was the largest decliner and remained near its day low.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/icicibank\/icici-bank-ltd-share-price-today\">ICICI Bank<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 1,406.80, -1.74%<\/td>\n<td>The large-cap bank closed near its intraday low, affecting weighted market performance.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ultracemco\/ultratech-cement-ltd-share-price-today\">UltraTech Cement<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 11,706.00, -1.56%<\/td>\n<td>The decline kept construction-material sentiment subdued.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/grasim\/grasim-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Grasim Industries<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 3,257.00, -1.54%<\/td>\n<td>The stock ended lower after trading through a broad intraday range.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/powergrid\/power-grid-corporation-of-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Power Grid<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Rs 266.60, -1.06%<\/td>\n<td>It closed near its day low, contrasting with NTPC\u2019s strength.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stocks_to_watch_next_session\"><\/span><strong>Stocks to watch next session<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tata Consumer Products will be in focus after its 2.69% gain and near-high close. Tata Motors also deserves attention after ending near its intraday high. Hindustan Unilever and NTPC closed at their day highs, making their ability to sustain strength relevant.<\/p>\n<p>On the weaker side, ICICI Bank, Hindalco Industries and Power Grid closed near their intraday lows. Their opening and follow-through price action may help indicate whether late-session selling remains concentrated or begins to ease.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technical_market_view\"><\/span><strong>Technical market view<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The available technical read is mixed. Breadth was mildly positive, with 27 advancers, but the market-cap-weighted measure was marginally negative. Leadership strength was visible in Tata Consumer Products, Tata Motors, Hindustan Unilever and NTPC, with the latter two ending at their respective day highs. At the same time, ICICI Bank, Hindalco and Power Grid were near their day lows, showing that selling pressure remained concentrated in notable names.<\/p>\n<p>The key feature is concentration: equal-weighted performance was positive while the weighted measure was negative. A move towards broader leadership among large-cap stocks would strengthen the closing structure, while continued weakness in heavyweight decliners would keep the picture uneven.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_bull_case\"><\/span><strong>The bull case<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The constructive case rests on positive breadth, with gainers exceeding losers, and on strength in multi-stock FMCG and Retailing groups. Consumer, infrastructure and capital-goods-linked leaders posted gains, while several top performers finished near or at their day highs. This combination suggests that buying interest remained present across more than one market pocket.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_cautious_case\"><\/span><strong>The cautious case<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The cautious reading comes from the 0.10% decline in the market-cap-weighted constituent measure despite positive equal-weighted performance. Weakness in ICICI Bank and Reliance Industries had greater implications for weighted market tone, while metals, construction materials and diversified shares also declined. The advance-decline margin was positive but narrow, leaving next-session confirmation important.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Univest_Insights\"><\/span><strong>Univest Insights<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The main market driver at the close was rotation rather than uniform direction. Positive participation in consumer shares, retailing, infrastructure and capital goods helped keep breadth above parity, even as select large-cap declines restrained the weighted outcome.<\/p>\n<p>FMCG offered the strongest multi-stock leadership, led by Hindustan Unilever and ITC, while Retailing had both tracked constituents in the green. Tata Consumer Products was the session\u2019s leading stock mover, and Tata Motors, NTPC and Shriram Finance added to the list of notable gainers.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, the weakness in ICICI Bank and Reliance Industries matters because large companies can shape the market-cap-weighted reading more than a wider set of smaller gains. Hindalco\u2019s sharp decline and lower closes in UltraTech Cement, Grasim and Power Grid added a cautious counterweight.<\/p>\n<p>For traders and investors, the key signal to watch is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Explore live market movement and constituent performance on <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\">Univest Market View<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span><strong>Frequently asked questions<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_did_Nifty_50_Today_perform_on_13_August_2026\"><\/span><strong>How did Nifty 50 Today perform on 13 August 2026?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The tracked 50-stock universe had 27 gainers and 23 losers.
