Abstract
Behavioural Finance is an area that needs to be studied within the context of the Indian stock market to assist investors in making rational investment decisions.

The study is based on 46 companies selected from NSE Nifty 50 index based on their trading period. The methodology applied to validate the presence of herd formation is Cross-Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) method. The results revealed that over the study period of extreme up market condition and high trading volume has shown herding behaviour in the Indian stock market.
