Meanwhile, Cigniti Technologies Ltd, NELCO Ltd, and Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd emerged as the Top Gainers of BSE in the pre-opening session today. Barring Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences, the other two companies have not made any significant announcements of late. Hence, the rally in their share prices could be driven purely by the market forces.   

Cigniti Technologies Ltd, an S&P BSE Smallcap company, surged 5.38 per cent to trade at Rs 613 apiece. 

NELCO Ltd, another S&P BSE Smallcap company, rallied 5 per cent to trade at Rs 989.40 apiece.
