2. Quasar: Huge Sell by UMA SHANKAR EXIM
UMA SHANKAR EXIM PRIVATE LIMITED sold close to 38 million shares of Quasar at a mere ₹0.85 price on BSE on May 8, 2025. The huge volume indicates profit booking or a potential strategic exit.
This dump greatly affected the intraday movement of the stock and could trigger a recalculation of Quasar’s support levels.
3. HarshilAgro: Strategic Buys and Sells
May 9 witnessed STROTRAM GLOBE PRIVATE LIMITED picking up 36.8 million shares of HarshilAgro at ₹2.12 on BSE. Conversely, UMA SHANKAR EXIM and AVENUE BUSINESS CENTER PRIVATE LIMITED sold positions in HarshilAgro by selling 30 million and 29.67 million shares respectively—both for the same price.
These moves in opposite directions suggest a reversal of shareholding patterns and, perhaps, entry of a new investor with good conviction in the prospects of agro firm
4. GODHA: Exit by ALKABEN SHAH
On May 8, ALKABEN PRADIPKUMAR SHAH offloaded 27.8 million shares of Godha Cabcon & Insulation Ltd. on NSE at ₹0.60 each.
Although the stock is trading at penny levels, the large quantity suggests significant reshuffling of holdings which could be in anticipation of future corporate moves.
5. MURAE: Investment by SAKET KUMAR
On May 7, SAKET KUMAR joined the battle with a 25 million share purchase of MURAE on BSE at ₹1.18.
The strategic purchase can be an indicator of long-term faith or a well-thought-out move driven by anticipated news flow or improvement in internal performance.
6. Quasar Again: TECHONOCRAVES Disposes 22.92 Million Shares
On May 13, TECHNOCRAVES SOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED sold 22.9 million shares of Quasar at ₹0.94 on BSE.
This was the second big sell transaction in Quasar for the month, indicating persistent institutional exit pressure.
7. EaseMyTrip: Second Bulk Buy by STROTRAM GLOBE
Also on May 5, STROTRAM GLOBE PRIVATE LIMITED acquired 22 million shares of EaseMyTrip at ₹13.10.
This transaction was independent of HIGHPOINT’s previous deal and is another bullish indicator for the online travel company, perhaps indicating varied DII interest.
