This represents the highest daily turnover recorded since January 8, 2026, when the market reached a turnover of Rs. 12.3 billion. This exceptional performance follows a strong momentum established yesterday (05), which saw a turnover exceeding Rs. 8 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The massive turnover was primarily driven by a major transfer of ownership in Commercial Credit and Finance PLC. A crossing involving 89.78 million shares of the company was executed, contributing Rs. 9.02 billion to the day&#8217;s turnover. When including regular market transactions worth Rs. 351 million, the total turnover for Commercial Credit for the day reached Rs. 9.37 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seller in this significant transaction was Group Lease Holdings PTE LTD, a foreign entity currently undergoing liquidation. As of June 30, 2026, the company held 95.39 million shares, representing a 29.99% stake in Commercial Credit. Reports indicate that this leading stake was purchased by a group of local investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the Commercial Credit activity, another notable crossing was recorded for United Motors Lanka PLC, valued at Rs. 1.02 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Market indices also performed strongly yesterday. The All Share Price Index (ASPI) rose by 102.73 points to close at 21,269.67. Meanwhile, the S&amp;P SL20 index saw an increase of 26.41 points, ending the session at 5,971.50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Ada Derana Biz <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) recorded a landmark trading session yesterday (06), with the daily&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":6866,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6865","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-economy"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.1.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) recorded a landmark trading session yesterday (06), with the daily turnover record surging past the Rs. 12 billion mark.
