Maharashtra Seamless (Rs 179): The stock of this electro-resistant-welding pipe manufacturer rose 21 per cent, on expectations of improved demand for the company's products.

Infotech Enterprises (Rs 143): The stock rose over 13 per cent after the company signed a four-year contract (base value being $1.5 million, per year) with Bombardier Transportation.
