SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey has elevated the surge of domestic investors to the pantheon of India’s transformative events. From the CII platform in Osaka, he stressed the enduring economic steadiness in India despite international trade frictions and geopolitical flux.
Firms are masters of large-scale fundraising. India’s 2025 IPO leadership in numbers and third-place finish in capital haul exemplify this. Low inflation, strong forex buffers, and solid external accounts propel India to economic elite status with unmatched velocity.
Global norms are being rewritten by India’s digital public stack, per Pandey. GST 2.0, new labor frameworks, and tax slashes are sparking renewed consumption-investment synergy. Fifth in world equity market cap shares, India trails US dominance, China, Japan, Hong Kong.
MF penetration intensifies with burgeoning monthly equity pours. AIFs spearhead private capital engines. Debt expansion, PE/AIF upticks, REIT/InvIT capital influxes for infra/real estate, and municipal bonds’ rise mark vibrant debt dynamics.
SEBI doubles down on investor literacy, digital scam combat, and sustainable practices. FPI facilitation via regulatory tweaks, onboarding simplicity, superior settlements, and global ties fortifies market allure.
This investor influx heralds India’s markets evolving into inclusive, resilient behemoths ready to conquer global stages.
