Zee Entertainment Enterprises is under the F&O trade ban on Wednesday. For Zee, MWPL stood at 92.3% on Tuesday with OI reported by Trendlyne at 122.6 million. It was down 1.2% from the previous session.
The stock had entered the ban on Saturday as stock exchanges BSE and NSE had decided to keep the market open despite the weekend holiday as part of its strategy to assess the system's preparation in the event of an unanticipated tragedy.
