Stock exchanges implement price bands as a surveillance measure to manage excessive volatility in the market. The BSE’s circuit filter mechanism sets upper and lower limits on daily price movements for listed securities, restricting how much a stock’s price can fluctuate within a single trading session.
According to SEBI, most individual stocks are assigned price bands with limits of up to 20% on either side. This means that a stock can only rise or fall by a maximum of 20% in a day. However, stocks with associated derivatives are generally excluded from these restrictions due to the broader market dynamics that influence their prices.
