What is Upper Circuit?

An upper circuit stock refers to the maximum percentage rise in the price of a company’s stock that can be reached on a particular trading day. The reason for the stock exchange setting a fixed upper limit is to prevent massive price hikes. If a company’s stock reaches the upper circuit, the stock exchange can temporarily suspend trading of that stock. By doing this, the stock exchange seeks to protect investors from purchasing stocks at an inflated price, ultimately protecting the market from a drastic price rise.

For instance, If a stock in the stock market is trading at Rs 200, and the stock exchange has determined the upper limit at 10%. This implies that the stock can go up to a maximum of Rs 220 on a particular trading day. However, if the stock has already reached this price, it is said to have reached its upper circuit.

What is Lower Circuit?

A lower circuit stock refers to the most a company’s stock price can fall in a single trading session.

The stock exchange sets a predetermined lower limit to prevent a rapid fall in the price of any stock.

In case the company’s stock has reached the set lower limit, trading in that particular stock can be temporarily suspended or put on hold. By suspending the stock, the stock exchange seeks to protect investors from potential panic selling that can cause a rapid crash in market prices.

For instance, A stock in the stock market is trading at Rs 200, and the stock exchange has set the lower circuit limit at 10%. This implies that a company’s stock can fall to a minimum price of Rs 180 in a trading session, not more. If a company’s stock has reached this price, it is considered the lowest price that a company’s stock can reach before the stock exchange suspends trading in that stock.

This will give you information regarding their profits, growth, and amount of debt. You should also be informed about news, announcements, or corporate actions that could affect stock prices. Lastly, focus on investing in trending sectors and industries with positive developments, as these stocks are likely to experience upward movements in their price.
