For stock instances
It is decided by the circuit limit that how much indexes like Nifty and Sensex of NSE or BSE can go up and down in a day. Among these, the filter starts at 10 per cent, 15 per cent and 20 per cent on the rise or fall. This is followed by a cooling-off period.
10 per cent circuit: If 10 per cent rise or fall comes before 1 pm, the business is stopped for one hour in the market. Business starts again after 45 minutes, after 15 minutes of pre-open session. At the same time, if it happens after 1 pm, then the business goes for 30 minutes. After 2.30 pm, the business continues when 10 per cent of the circuit is installed.
15 per cent circuit: If the 15 per cent circuit in the index comes before 1 pm, then the business is stopped for 2 hours in the market. Business stops for one hour after 15 per cent decline after 1 pm. But after 2.30 pm, if the circuit of 15 percent is installed then the business continues.
20 percent circuit: If 20 percent circuit is used in SENSEX or NIFTY then it is not started on that day. The market closes for that day and trading is started the next day.

But due to the circuit filter, it can be weak within the fixed limit.
