According to stock market experts, extremely fragile due to entrenched inflation and the possibility of severe measures by central banks to tame it, other factors such as geopolitical tensions, the risk of stagflation and the slowing global economic growth spooked Indian investors and this led to a sharp drop in Sensex and Nifty.

Speaking on the reasons for the fall in the Indian stock market, Sunil Nyati, MD at Swastika Investmart Ltd., said, “The sudden hike in the repo rate and CRR by the RBI has puzzled investors and this marks the end of the pandemic-led stimulus, we believe investors should work extra hard to earn good returns as the days of easy money come to an end.

5]Price of raw materials: Many market watchers expect commodity prices, particularly the price of crude oil, to ease soon after last month’s wild volatility in light of the Ukraine crisis.
