In April, the market capitalization (mcap) of all domestically listed companies in India surged by nearly ₹51 trillion, reaching a total of ₹463.3 trillion. This increase marks the highest absolute monthly addition on record, surpassing the previous high of ₹28.9 trillion recorded in March 2025. The significant rebound in April follows a sharp decline in March, where the market value eroded by ₹51.1 trillion due to the geopolitical crisis in West Asia, which led to a spike in oil prices and negatively impacted the outlook for domestic equities. The recovery indicates a strong rebound in investor confidence and market sentiment following the turbulence of the previous month.
