Here are the 10 stocks which have moved the most in the week:

J&K Bank | Down 28 percent

Shares of Jammu and Kashmir Bank remained under pressure last week after the government had removed J&K Bank Chairman Parvez Ahmad and appointed its Executive President R K Chibber as an interim chairman.

The government said it decided to take long-term measures to improve the functioning of the bank so that it became an example of a well-managed government-owned bank, and Ahmad's removal was the first step in that direction.

It added that Chibber had been appointed as the interim chairman and director on the board of directors.

Jet Airways | Down 34 percent

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) adjourned an insolvency plea against the carrier, giving it a fresh lease of life.

Sources have told Moneycontrol that officials of Jet Airways, Etihad Airways and the Hinduja Group are now in constant dialogue to chart out a revival plan along with the lenders.

There has been a question mark over the talks after two operational creditors of Jet Airways filed the insolvency petition against the airline at the Mumbai bench of NCLT. The Tribunal has adjourned the plea to June 20.

Meanwhile, shares also remained under pressure during the week after stock exchanges decided to impose trading restrictions on the beleaguered airline. According to a circular issued by the NSE, the decision was taken as a part of preventive surveillance measures to curb excessive volatility.

Yes Bank | Down 17 percent

Shares of Yes Bank tanked 17 percent in the last week after UBS cut price target sharply on lower FY20 earnings estimates.

UBS maintained sell rating and slashed target to Rs 90 from Rs 170 apiece.

"We raise FY20 credit cost estimates for Yes Bank to 250 bps from 200 bps," the brokerage said.

According to the research firm, the next level of risk could appear from leveraged corporates' related companies.

Hence, UBS lowered its earnings estimates for Yes Bank by 79 percent & 7.3 percent for FY20/21.

IndusInd Bank | Down 8 percent

UBS downgraded IndusInd Bank to sell and cut price target to Rs 1,400 from Rs 1,700 earlier. UBS raised FY20 credit cost estimates for IndusInd Bank to 150 bps from 100 bps as network risks drive credit cost estimates higher.

UBS lowered its earnings estimates for IndusInd Bank by 53 percent & 8.6 percent for FY20/21.
