Definition
Turnover is roughly how much money moved in PKR for the session - often related to price × volume, depending on the feed’s definition.
Purpose & when you need it
Purpose
Turnover sizes activity in money terms, not only share count - useful when prices differ a lot across names.
When you need it
Use beside volume. Missing turnover → study volume alone. Do not invent PKR.
Where it appears & why people look
Where
Live / market desks when the feed publishes turnover.
Why people look
People compare money moved across names so a high-priced share and a cheap share are not compared on share count alone.
Formula (simple)
Common homework form: turnover ≈ average trade price × volume (feed definitions vary). Prefer the exchange-published turnover when both exist.
Traps (tip culture)
High turnover can still be a short burst in a thin name. It is not proof of “smart money” or a tip.

A low-priced share can print huge volume with modest PKR. A high-priced share the reverse.
