BusinessIndia's Economy Grows Fast but Stock Market Declines for Eight Weeks
India's economy grew at a rapid 7.8% rate from April to June, with profits of the 50 largest listed companies rising 18%, the fastest in ten quarters. Despite this, the Sensex closed at 71,910 last Friday, marking an eight-week decline—the longest since 2020. The index has fallen about 8.5%, wiping out an estimated 30-40 lakh crore rupees in market capitalization, reflecting a rare weak market performance in over two decades.
