India’s key equity indices have slipped more than 4 percent so far in January, pressured by continued selling from foreign portfolio investors, geopolitical uncertainty and a softer rupee, market experts said.
The sell-off has been compounded by global risk-off sentiment and mixed corporate earnings, prompting investors to shift toward safer assets. Elevated crude oil prices and rising global bond yields also added to domestic market headwinds.
Analysts noted that several heavyweight sectors, including IT and banking, have disappointed in recent earnings, which has put further pressure on benchmarks. The outlook remains cautious as markets navigate external risks and capital flows.
