The Indian stock market is experiencing severe turmoil, with the Sensex dropping 3,000 points and smallcaps in a bear market, as FIIs withdraw over Rs 1 lakh crore in 2025. Analysts predict a potential recovery in FY26, driven by rising GDP growth, despite ongoing earnings downgrades and high valuations across sectors. Long-term investors may find opportunities as the market stabilizes, with expectations of a shift towards discretionary consumption.

Indian stock markets are facing a severe downturn, with the BSE Sensex dropping 3,000 points over nine sessions, largely due to Rs 1 lakh crore withdrawn by foreign institutional investors in 2025. Smallcap and microcap segments are particularly hard-hit, with declines up to 42% for some Nifty components. Experts predict continued market weakness, citing high valuations and potential earnings reductions, although a recovery may begin in Q1 FY26 as global tensions ease and consumption demand stabilizes.

Market participants are closely monitoring US retail sales data, which may impact the dollar index and keep the Indian rupee volatile, expected to range between 86.40-87.25. Despite positive developments, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have continued to sell, with outflows reaching ₹23,242 crore this month, driven by rising US bond yields and concerns over US tariffs. The Indian market has faced significant corrections, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 indices experiencing their worst weekly slump in 2025, prompting analysts to suggest that this may be an opportune time for long-term investors to accumulate.
