Recently Vakrangee was about to reverse from lower circuit to upper circuit
Everyone knew the date it will do it and wanted to buy or average
Coincidentally, NSE had some bug due to which they could not update the category of Vakrangee (BE to EQ) and lot of brokerage clients couldnt buy Vakrangee that day and it went into upper circuit
Upper circuit means only buyers are there, no sellers.
Around 2-3 days before that day, there was crores of buying in Vakrangee but it was stuck in lower circuit.
Then after market hours, the news came it is out of ASM category and it has been upgraded from BE to EQ category.
So everyone and their mothers knew next day it will hit UC.
And surprisingly next day, lot of retailers in many top brokers including ICICI Direct, Zerodha, Sharekhan (which is like 70% of entire market?) couldnt buy Vakrangee
I am more sympathizing with people who were already stuck with huge loss, and maybe wanted to average it but couldnt do it
Yes they could buy on BSE, but lot of people dont know or realise it until too late. I know atleast 2 people having HUGE loss in Vakrangee who could not average and didnt realise they should have bought on BSE
