A huge block of over 2.2 mn shares of Asiri central Hospital got transferred at LKR250.0, as the Asiri Hospital Holdings bought 10.07% from Actis Investments Holdings that solely contributed circa 44% to the total turnover.

Further, Hatton National Bank witnessed a crossing of over 177k shares at LKR147.50 rupees, whilst 1mn shares of Lanka Orix Leasing Company got transferred at LKR60. Since the activities at the Colombo bourse were predominantly led by the institutional investors, the aforementioned counters that reported crossings, secured places in the top contributors list.
