Robust Stock Market Performance in FY25

The Indian stock market ended FY 2025 with modest gains, despite substantial FPI outflows in the second half. The Nifty delivered positive returns for its investors in FY 2024-25, outperforming certain Asian indices such as the Nikkei 225 and the Korea Composite Stock Price Index. Hang Seng remained at the top of the leaderboard, delivering a staggering 39.8% return.

The NSE and BSE midcap and Smallcap indices closed the FY 2024-25 on a strong note, driven by market rebound, increased retail investor participation, and attractive valuations. The Nifty Midcap150 and Nifty500 rose by 7.6% and 5.4% respectively. The BSE Smallcap index increased by 8%, while the midcap index increased by 5.6%. In comparison, the Sensex increased by 5.1% over the same period. Despite earlier concerns over valuations and volatility, renewed optimism in the broader market supported gains in these segments.

Strong Addition to Investor Base continues.

Indias economic transformation over the past few decades is a narrative of rapid growth and evolving financial landscapes. Central to this story is the rise of capital markets, catalyzing capital formation for the real economy, enhancing the financialization of domestic savings, and enabling wealth creation. Investor participation has been a contributor, with the number of investors growing from 2.3 crore in FY15 to 19.2 crore in FY25, increasing at a CAGR of 23% for the decade.

The financial year 2025 was marked by significant shifts and milestones. The new income tax bill was proposed, foreign institutional investor outflows reached new highs, and India witnessed its largest-ever initial public offering in the form of the Hyundai Motor India IPO. Alongside this, Narendra Modi secured a third term, while

Donald Trumps return to power introduced fresh tariff policies that stirred global uncertainty. During the year

FY25, the Indian capital market has witnessed strong outflows by FIIs in the secondary market (across the year). However, FIIs primary inflows (mainly IPOs) compensated the outflows to a major extent in the initial 9 months till Dec24. However, the sharp outflows in the 4th Quarter of FY25 in the secondary market, with a lower number of IPOs, led the yearly number to fall to negative territory. DIIs flows have supported the market and didnt let the market witness the fall, which otherwise would have been seen.

MACRO-ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

India:

Real GDP or GDP at Constant Prices is estimated to attain a level of 178 lakh crore in FY25, against the First Revised Estimate of GDP for the year FY24 of 167.50 lakh crore. The total expenditure that the government is expected to spend in FY26 is 50.65 lakh crore. When compared to the last financial year, this has increased by 7.4%. Real GDP has been estimated to grow by 6.5% in FY25. Nominal GDP is expected to witness a growth rate of 9.9% in FY25. Both growth rates are revised upward from their respective First Advance Estimates.

Global Economy:

In FY25, the global economy experienced moderate growth, influenced by persistent inflationary pressures, tight monetary policies in developed markets, and geopolitical uncertainties. These factors contributed to cautious consumer spending and disrupted global trade flows. Amid trade uncertainties, global growth is expected to slow to 2.3% in 2025 from 2.7% in 2024.

The US economy has been resilient, driven by strong growth in the services sector, a robust labour market, and high real wages. Europe, including the UK, has faced softer growth due to the war in Ukraine, high energy prices, and slowdowns in manufacturing and services. Chinas growth was weaker than expected, with a slowdown in the real estate sector and industrial activity. The Asia-Pacific region is projected to be the fastest-growing.

The automotive industry faced significant challenges amid these macroeconomic headwinds. High interest rates and tighter credit conditions in key markets such as the US and Europe dampened consumer demand, particularly in the mass market segment.
