Share Market News / India became number 1, left America, Germany, China behind in this list

Share Market News: From October 2024 to February 2025, the Indian stock market gave a huge shock to investors. With a decline of about 15 percent, capital worth about Rs 90 lakh crore was wiped out from the market. This decline, which lasted for five months, hurt the confidence of investors, but the picture changed completely after March 2025.

India's explosive comeback from March to May

From March to May 2025, the stock market showed a tremendous jump, which was not limited to India only, but its echo was heard in the global markets. Bloomberg report and stock market figures testify that the valuation of India's market has increased by $ 1 trillion. This is the highest increase of 21 percent among the top 10 stock markets in the world.

India becomes the 5th largest stock market in the world

Since the beginning of March 2025, the total market cap of India's listed companies has reached $ 5.33 trillion. This increase is not only more than giant markets like the US and China, but also establishes India as the fifth largest stock market in the world.

Bullish graph: Sensex-Nifty pace

The Sensex jumped 13 per cent from March 4 to June 11, i.e. a gain of 9,525 points.

The Nifty registered a jump of 14 per cent or 3,058 points during this period.

The BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices rose by 20.7% and 26% respectively.

However, due to this bull run, valuations have again reached high levels, due to which analysts have started cutting earnings estimates for the upcoming quarters.

How heavy was the last fall?

On September 27, 2024, the Sensex was at 85,978 points, but by March 4, 2025, it came down to 72,989 points - that is, a decline of about 13,000 points. At the same time, Nifty also lost 4,194 points, falling 16 percent. This decline was considered the biggest in many years.

Global scenario: India at the forefront

After India, the countries whose stock markets saw significant improvement are as follows:

• Germany: 14% growth
• Canada: 11%
• Hong Kong: 9%
• Japan and UK: about 8%
• USA: 2.4%
• China: 2.7%
• France: 3.9%
• Taiwan: 3.2%

Analysts' opinion: Cautious optimism

According to a report by JM Financial, Nifty 50 EPS for FY25 has increased marginally by 0.3 percent. But estimates for the coming financial years (FY26 and FY27) have been cut by 1.1% and 1.0%. This trend shows that even though the market is bullish, the real test of earnings is yet to come.
