Empower India shares hit the 5% upper circuit limit of ₹1.81 apiece on BSE Thursday, marking the third consecutive day of gains for the penny stock. According to reports from Livemint, the stock touched upper circuit limits in three out of the four trading sessions, demonstrating sustained investor interest despite broader market weakness. The rally came despite a weak trend in the board Indian stock market, with the benchmark Sensex and Nifty 50 crashing over half a percent each, while the Nifty Smallcap 100 and Nifty Midcap 100 indices traded flat.
The penny stock has delivered impressive short-term gains, jumping 70% in one month and gaining 27% in three months, as reported by Livemint. However, the stock has shown mixed performance over longer periods, rising 5% on a year-to-date basis while falling 17% in six months. Despite these recent gains, Empower India shares have delivered multibagger returns of 450% in three years and have surged by a staggering 1,107% over the past five years, highlighting the stock's long-term growth trajectory.
The recent gains in Empower India share price came after the stock was admitted for trading in the National Stock Exchange (NSE). According to Livemint, in a circular dated 17th April 2026, the NSE admitted securities of Empower India Limited on NSE Portal, permitting trading and dealing in the securities of the company w.e.f. 20th April 2026. The company's symbol on the NSE Platform is 'EMPOWER', expanding its trading presence beyond the BSE where it was previously listed only.
At 10:35 AM, Empower India share price was still locked in the 5% upper circuit of ₹1.81 apiece on the BSE, as reported by Livemint. The stock's performance stands out against the broader market weakness, with the benchmark indices facing pressure while the penny stock continues its upward trajectory. This divergence highlights the stock-specific factors driving investor interest in Empower India despite the challenging market environment.
