Small-cap stock under ₹20: Up 850% in 5 years! Toll fee collector stock jumps 4.5% despite stock market sell-off
Small-cap stock under ₹20: Despite heavy selling in the key benchmark indices of the Indian stock market, some small-cap stocks witnessed sharp upside during the Monday session. Hazoor Multi Projects shares are one of them. The small-cap company with a market cap of around ₹630 crore finished 4.50% upside despite the Nifty 50 index losing 157 points, the BSE Sensex shedding 547 points, and the Bank Nifty index losing around 338 points.
According to stock market experts, the small-cap stock witnessed a sharp upside movement after successive toll collection orders worth over ₹77 crore. They said that Hazoor Multi Projects Ltd received two toll fee collection orders totalling ₹49.49 crore on Saturday, and on Monday, it received one more order totalling ₹28.10 crore. So, small-cap stocks under ₹20 received more than ₹77 crore in toll fee collection orders in two days, which attracted the attention of Dalal Street bulls despite sharp selling in the Sensex, Nifty and Bank Nifty indices.

It bagged two orders worth ₹49.49 crore on Oct 10, 2026, followed by another order worth ₹28.10 crore on Monday, bringing the total of fresh orders to over ₹77 crore. This fueled the positive sentiments among Dalal Street bulls, and the small-cap stock under ₹20 finally ended up 4.50% upside despite weak trends in the Indian stock market.”
The SEBI-registered expert said the fresh orders have been awarded by the NHAI to this small-cap company Hazoor Multi Projects Ltd.

The small-cap stock under ₹20 traded ex-split to find the eligible shareholders for the benefit of a 1:10 stock split on 7 November 2024. After the stock split, the stock has remained beaten down, but it is still a multibagger for long-term investors.
In the last five years, Hazoor Multi Projects' share price has risen from around ₹1.80 to ₹16.80 apiece, clocking a nearly 850% rally. This price is the adjusted stock price post-split. In this calculation, we are not adding the benefit to long-term investors who held this scrip prior to the stock split.
