Two years on, Indian equities remain stuck in a grind
BSE moved lower.
28 Sept 2026 · Economic Times Markets, ET Stocks
Since September 2024, Indian equities have experienced a challenging market phase with mixed returns. The Nifty and Sensex have seen significant declines, while small and mid-cap stocks have performed relatively well. Despite the difficulties, some valuation froth has been removed from the market, presenting potential buying opportunities.
The analysis
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Why it matters
- With BSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
- The immediate tone of coverage reads negative.
