Diwali 2026 wealth creators: 8 BSE 500 stocks shrug off market weakness, deliver up to 191% returns; do you own any?
Eight BSE 500 stocks more than doubled investors’ wealth since Diwali 2025, led by Aditya Infotech, HFCL and Welspun Corp. As Samvat 2083 begins, brokerages expect earnings-led growth, favouring selective investments across banking, manufacturing, consumption, exports and technology amid valuation concerns.
In the financial year 2026, eight stocks from the BSE 500 have outperformed the broader market despite the Nifty 50's decline of nearly 3% since Diwali 2025. These stocks have delivered exceptional returns, with some exceeding 100% and a few even surpassing 191%. Aditya Infotech led the group with a remarkable 191.39% return, followed by HFCL with 186.53% gains.
Welspun Corp, Laurus Labs, Ather Energy, Acutaas Chemicals, Welspun Living, and Aether Industries also showed substantial gains, ranging from 153.83% to 104.89%. Analysts predict a recovery of Indian equities in the coming year, driven by earnings growth and valuations moving below long-term averages.
