Following its spin-off from Edelweiss Financial Services, Nuvama Wealth Management distributed 1.05 crore shares proportionately among Edelweiss Financial Services’ shareholders. During the first ten trading sessions, the circuit filter for this stock will be limited to a maximum of 5% on either side.
