Why are Zen Technologies shares locked at 5% upper circuit today? Know More
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on May 12, 2025, 11:01 IST
Shares of Zen Technologies Limited were locked at the 5% upper circuit on Monday, trading at ₹1,476.70 on the NSE. The stock surged ₹70.30 from the previous close of ₹1,406.40 following the announcement of a ceasefire understanding between India and Pakistan.
The rally in Zen Technologies comes amid mixed performance in defence stocks, as investors recalibrated expectations following the de-escalation of tensions along the border. The broader Nifty India Defence Index was up just 0.3% during the session.
Zen Technologies was among the top gainers in the defence pack alongside Data Patterns, Cyient DLM, Mishra Dhatu Nigam, and Dynamatic Technologies, each rising 5-6%. Meanwhile, Paras Defence shares dropped 5%, and others like HAL, Astra Microwave, and Solar Industries also traded lower.
The volatility follows an intense week of military operations during which India conducted precision strikes under Operation Sindoor, killing over 100 terrorists and neutralizing over 50 Pakistani drones. With a ceasefire now in place, defence stocks are seeing selective profit booking and rotation.
Zen Technologies, known for its defence training and simulation systems, is perceived as a long-term beneficiary of modernization in defence infrastructure, which helped sustain investor confidence despite the easing geopolitical narrative.

Ahmedabad Air India crash: Death toll rises to 317 including all 242 onboard and 75 locals from Meghani Nagar residential block
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 12, 2025, 18:45 IST The tragic crash of Air India flight AI171 from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick has now claimed at least 317 lives, making it one of India's deadliest aviation disasters in recent history. Officials have confirmed that all 242 people onboard — including 230 passengers, 10 cabin crew, and 2 pilots — have perished, with no survivors found so far, according to the Ahmedabad City Police Commissioner and the Associated Press. In addition to the passengers, the crash has devastated a residential complex in Meghani Nagar, just outside the airport perimeter, where the aircraft fell shortly after takeoff from Runway 23 at 1:39 PM IST on Wednesday. As per Civil Hospital staff records, the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner struck Atulyam Flats — three buildings with around 94 flats — housing mostly healthcare professionals and their families. Officials have confirmed 75 dead bodies recovered from the buildings, with 200 residents reportedly present at the time of the crash. The aircraft's fuel-heavy load intensified the post-crash fire, complicating recovery efforts. The DGCA confirmed the aircraft issued a MAYDAY call moments after takeoff before communication ceased. Emergency teams remain at the site, with rescue and identification operations ongoing. This includes prominent names like Cargo Motors founder Pramukh Nanda and family, who were reportedly onboard, along with 53 British nationals and several other foreign citizens. The government has activated emergency protocols, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi directing Home Minister Amit Shah and Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu to reach Ahmedabad and oversee relief efforts. An investigation has been initiated by the DGCA in collaboration with Boeing.
