Despite the sharp fall seen in March 2020, the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty have gained about 60% in the past one year.

Many companies have seen their stock prices more than double following the recovery in the Indian share markets from their March 2020 lows.

Here is a look at 15 stocks that have given more than 500% returns in the past one year.

Adani Total Gas

Adani Total Gas, a unit of one of India's largest conglomerates, is the best performer this year.

Shares of the company have jumped 1,157% in the past one year versus a gain of 56% in BSE Sensex.

At the start of 2020, Adani set a goal of becoming the world's largest renewable power company by 2025.

In June, it said it will invest Rs 450 bn to execute what it called the world's largest solar order.

Intellect Design

Shares of Intellect Design Arena, a Chennai-headquartered financial technology company, have rallied 1,138% in the past one year. It had touched a 52-week low of Rs 44 on 25 March 2020.

Adani Enterprises

Shares of Adani Enterprises have been in an uptrend in recent months.

As per reports, the main reason behind this rally is that Adani Group stocks are expected to be a part of the MSCI Standard Index in its review for May 2021.

MSCI is expected to conduct its semi-annual review of its MSCI Standard Index on 12 May 2021.

Everest Kanto Cylinder

As India gasps for breath due to a shortage of medical oxygen, shares of companies that manufacture cylinders for medical oxygen have zoomed.

One such stock is Everest Kanto Cylinder. Shares of the company have gained 762% in the past one year.

Apart from Everest Kanto, companies like Linde India, National Oxygen, and Bhagawati Oxygen have also seen their share prices zoom.

Everest Kanto Cylinder is India's largest player in high pressure gas cylinders with market share of around 50%.

The company has around 150-strong client base from diverse verticals including automobile OEMs/after-market, city gas distribution, industrials, cylinder cascades, medical sector, firefighting equipment, and defence - including Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto, Hyundai, Toyota, BOC India, Praxair, Mahanagar Gas, and Adani Gas.

Given the acute shortage of oxygen cylinders amid rising Covid-19 cases in India, the company is expected to see surge in demand in its medical equipment segment.
