Diwali Muhurat trading 2026: Top 3 Samvat 2083 stock picks under ₹100 — Suzlon, NHPC, South Bank by Sumeet Bagadia

The headline reports that financial commentator Sumeet Bagadia has named three stocks priced under ₹100 as picks for Diwali Muhurat trading ahead of the Samvat 2083 year, namely Suzlon Energy, NHPC and South Indian Bank. Muhurat trading is a traditional one-hour special session held on Diwali evening, and such sessions typically draw retail participation and sentiment-driven flows rather than broad institutional repositioning, so the transmission to prices runs mainly through retail momentum and short-term speculative demand in low-priced large-volume names. Suzlon and NHPC sit in renewable energy and power generation, sectors sensitive to government capex, interest-rate expectations and power-sector policy, while South Indian Bank is a mid-sized private lender whose valuation tracks domestic credit growth and net interest margins. Traders should watch the regular NSE and BSE sessions that follow the Muhurat hour, along with any post-festival liquidity figures and the Reserve Bank of India's next policy signals on rates, since these will determine whether any pre-festival price pressure persists.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
