Algoquant Fintech Limited Financial Year 2025-26
1.1 Global Economic Environment
The global economy remained resilient during the financial year, although growth continued to be influenced by inflationary pressures, changing monetary policies, geopolitical tensions, trade-related developments and volatility in energy and commodity markets. In 2026, the global economy is undergoing a moderate recovery, with the International Monetary Fund projecting global growth at around 3.1%. The outlook remains constrained by trade tariffs, geopolitical uncertainties and disruptions in energy markets. The U.S. economy continues to benefit from strong AI-driven investments estimated at around US $650 billion, while the Federal Reserve has maintained its policy rate in the range of 3.5%-3.75%, reflecting a cautious approach amid continuing uncertainty. Growth in Europe is expected to remain modest at around 1.1%, supported by policy easing and increased defence spending, while Chinas growth is expected to remain in the range of 4.5% - 5% indicating a gradual shift towards more measured and sustainable growth.
Against this backdrop, India continues to maintain its position as one of the fastest-growing major economies. The Reserve Bank of India has revised its FY2026-27 GDP growth projection to 6.9% taking into account external headwinds and the evolving global environment. Retail inflation is projected at around 4.6% for FY2026-27, primarily due to supply-side pressures and energy costs, while remaining within the RBIs tolerance band. Indias macroeconomic position is further supported by a narrowing current account deficit of around 0.8% and a projected fiscal deficit of 4.4% for FY2025-26. High-frequency indicators have also remained encouraging, with GST collections increasing by 8.2% year-on-year and industrial output registering a 5.2% increase, supported largely by manufacturing activity.
Looking ahead, Indias economic outlook remains supported by strong domestic fundamentals and structural growth drivers. Rapid digitalisation, continued infrastructure development, growing domestic consumption and strategic free trade agreements are expected to support economic activity and strengthen Indias resilience to external uncertainties. While global trade conditions, geopolitical developments, energy prices and monetary policies may continue to present challenges, Indias diversified economy and improving domestic capabilities provide a favourable foundation for sustained growth over the medium to long term.
1.2 Indian Economy Overview
Indias capital markets remained resilient in 2026 despite heightened global volatility, supported by strong domestic investor participation and steady inflows. Retail participation continued to grow, with demat accounts crossing 21.6 crore, reflecting the continued shift of household savings towards financial assets. Monthly SIP inflows also remained strong at over ??30,000 crore, providing consistent liquidity to the markets. The banking sector continued to maintain healthy fundamentals, with bank credit expected to grow by around 13%, supported by demand from the retail, MSME and infrastructure segments. Asset quality also improved, with gross NPAs falling below 3%, while capital adequacy levels remained comfortably above regulatory requirements. NBFCs continued to witness steady growth, particularly in rural and MSME-focused segments, despite relatively tighter liquidity conditions.

Equity markets remained volatile during the year, largely due to Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) outflows, elevated valuations and changes in global yields. However, strong participation from Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) helped absorb these outflows and supported overall market stability. Market leadership also gradually shifted towards domestic cyclical sectors, with PSU banks, capital goods, automotive and defence companies benefiting from stronger earnings visibility and continued government focus on capital expenditure. Meanwhile, the fintech ecosystem continued to expand rapidly, with UPI transactions reaching a record 22.64 billion in March 2026. Regulatory initiatives, including digital KYC, are further supporting financial inclusion, improving access to credit and strengthening transparency across the financial system. Overall, strong domestic liquidity and healthy corporate earnings provide a positive foundation for the Indian capital markets, notwithstanding the near-term volatility in global markets.
