Shares of Zydus Lifesciences are the top gainers from large cap space this week.

The latter is engaged in the business of developing, owning, operating and maintaining renewable energy infrastructure for supplying electrical power generated using solar energy and other sources of renewable energy to commercial, industrial and utility customers.

Abbott India Ltd

Shares of Abbott India are amongst the top gainers on the bourses this week. However, the company has not made any significant announcements of late. Hence, the rally in its share price could be driven purely by market forces. 

Gujarat Fluorochemicals Ltd

Shares of Gujarat Fluorochemicals Ltd gained 5.72% on the bourses in the last 5 trading sessions. On Thursday, 29 September 2022, the company reported the proceedings of its 04th Annual General Meeting (AGM). Apart from this, no significant announcement has been made by the company lately.
