UPL, SBI Card to Bajaj Fin: These 5 stocks surged more than gold prices in 2025 despite zero return by Nifty 50, Sensex | Stock Market News
Source: Live Mint
Gold prices have been reaching new record highs in 2025, yielding returns of over 12%, outperforming equity benchmarks.
The Indian equity market has lost nearly ₹45 lakh crore in 2025 so far. Since reaching its all-time high on September 27, 2024, investor wealth has plunged by a massive ₹78 lakh crore.
The market decline was attributed to subdued quarterly results and FII flows shifting towards China and pro US centric sentiment. Indian markets are under pressure due to a sell-off by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), who have divested shares worth ₹97,104 crore in 2025 as of February 13.
“Indian equity markets turned jittery with Nifty declining 0.4% to close at 22,929 level as Donald Trump ordered the Commerce Department to recalculate U.S. tariff rates for each country, product by product. This could lead to higher tariffs for major trading partners by early April and spark negotiations with dozens of countries aimed at lowering their tariffs and trade barriers. Nervousness around Trump’s tariffs led to a broad-based sell-off, with Nifty Midcap losing 2.4% and Smallcap plunging 3.5%,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
