The index opened at 26,325.80 and hit an intraday high at the same level, before slipping to the day’s low of 26,124.20.

Conclusion: December 1, 2025 (closing)
The closing snapshot of December 1, 2025, captured a market in consolidation, with headline indices edging lower but stock‑specific activity remaining intense. Upper‑circuit moves in WELINV and WOCKPHARMA contrasted sharply with steep declines in MCLOUD, INDO-RE2 and other small caps, reflecting heightened volatility and selective risk-taking. Traders and investors are likely to track sector cues and institutional flows closely in the coming sessions as markets search for clearer direction.
