On April 7, 2025, India’s stock market faced a steep crash. The BSE Sensex lost more than 3,200 points while the Nifty 50 dipped underneath 21,900. This decline in share prices was largely due to global concerns raised after Donald Trump announced new and harsher tariffs for the US. These new tariffs would bring about a global trade-war, causing a recession, which is why global investor sentiment took a hit.
India was not the only country in panic, the rest of Asia witnessed a steep decline as well. MSCI Asia (excluding Japan) alongside Japan’s Nikkei 225 index saw a decline surpassing 7%. Indian Nifty volatility index saw a sorrowful surge of 57%, proving investors were panicking. In all 13 major sectors of India’s stock, IT, metals, and finance took the biggest hits.
The currency exchange market displayed signs of pressure as well. Analysts predicted that there will a decline in the Indian rupee due to the fear of tariffs on the US and the weak showing of Taiwan. Quoting 85.23 against the USD previously, the rupee was expected to open at 85.75-85.80.
Market analysts believe recovery is dependent on a shift in global trade policies, as well as restored confidence from investors – until then, markets will remain unpredictable.
