if you read link I shared, I need to add
there are two tech
stackwise-80/160/480 which is in 9200/9300 here is support UP to 8 SW as M02@rt37 mention
stackwise-virtual (as @Rich R mention) 9500/9600 it support two SW BUT multi supervisor.
so if you looking for High Availability in SW using multi SUP and config Quad-SUP stack wise
NOTE:- the stackwise virtual or 80/160/480 need matching software hardware SW

Hello @subarayarsooper,
The number of switches that can be stacked in a front plane stacking or StackWise Virtual configuration depends on the specific Cisco switch model and software version being used. Generally, Cisco Catalyst switches support different stacking technologies, and the maximum number of switches that can be stacked can vary.
For front plane stacking, also known as StackWise, the number of switches that can be stacked depends on the switch model. For example, some Cisco Catalyst 9300 models support a maximum stack size of 8 switches, while others support up to 9 switches (old 3750).
