The exchanges on Tuesday evening announced the revision in price bands for several stocks including Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders.

Stock exchanges periodically adjust the price bands of listed securities as part of their surveillance measures to manage excessive volatility. The BSE uses a circuit filter mechanism to cap the maximum fluctuation allowed in a stock’s price in a day. These price bands determine the upper and lower limits for price movements of a stock.
