Corporation Ltd. (IRFC) rose to Rs 80.95 from the previous close of Rs 79.27, a move of Rs 1.68 or 2.12%.

The previous close was Rs 79.27, and the day\u2019s open was also Rs 79.27, which means the stock traded above the opening level through the session and finished at the day\u2019s high of Rs 80.95. The day\u2019s low was Rs 79.27, matching the open and the previous close. Turnover stood at Rs 2.81 Cr. On a purely factual basis, the price action shows a modest share price gain and a close at the session peak, but the supplied data does not identify a specific trigger for the move. That is why the verified IRFC Share Price story remains an event-led stock update rather than a catalyst-led narrative. For Univest readers scanning Stocks Rising Today or Top Gainers Today, this is a clean example of a price rise that can be reported accurately without overstating the cause.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Indian_Railway_Finance_Corporation_Ltd_IRFC_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Indian Railway Finance Corporation Ltd.
