The three-day climb in stock's value, wherein it has zoomed 68 percent, comes after the Supreme Court ruled in favour of financial creditors in its verdict on Essar Steel resolution.

Last Friday, the apex court said the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) should not interfere with the decisions of the committee of creditors (CoC) in the Essar Steel insolvency case.

Further, Corporation Bank reported a 26 percent increase in net profit to Rs 130 crore for the September-ended quarter.
