Top three stocks that saw heavy demand from buyers in the pre-opening session today

These three stocks were the top gainers on BSE in the pre-opening session today.

At the pre-opening bell, the frontline index S&P BSE Sensex opened in red with a loss of 336.84 points or 0.55 per cent. By 9.15 am, the index strengthened to 61,391.10, signifying gains of 323.86 points or 0.53 per cent.

On the sectoral front, in the pre-opening session, metals index was down by 0.05 per cent, power weakened by 0.40 per cent whereas auto slipped by 0.18 per cent.

Meanwhile, UCO Bank, Steel Strips Wheels Ltd and Bank of Maharashtra emerged as the Top Gainers of BSE in the pre-opening session today. Barring Bank of Maharashtra, 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.  

UCO Bank, a part of S&P BSE 500 index, surged 5.64 per cent to trade at Rs 33.70 apiece.

Steel Strips Wheels Ltd, an S&P BSE SmallCap company, rallied 4.77 per cent to trade at Rs 164.70 apiece.
