India just took back a top-5 spot among the world's stock markets.
Total market value, Nov 12:
1. US: ~$80T
2. China: $13.3T
3. Japan: $8.4T
4. Hong Kong: $5.7T
5. India: $5.45T
Taiwan, at $4.4T, is now behind India.
What changed since late October:
- FPIs bought Rs 66,302 crore of Indian stocks in November (through
Nov 11), after pulling out over Rs 70,000 crore in September and
October
- Brent crude fell from ~$110 to ~$95
- The AI trade cooled. Nvidia's CEO resigned on Nov 12 and the stock
fell 4.4% that day
India sits just ~$220 billion behind Hong Kong.
Foreign money that chased AI elsewhere is starting to come back.
Today showed how fragile that is: a stronger dollar and higher US
yields pushed the rupee to 94.20, and the Nifty fell 0.6%.

The biggest earnings surprise in India today came after the closing bell.
Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, Q2 FY27 (Jul-Sep):
- Net loss: Rs 5,531 crore, including a Rs 6,738 crore one-time charge
- Revenue: +34% YoY
- EBITDA: Rs 4,866 crore, vs a Rs 1,404 crore EBITDA loss a year ago
Operations improved. The bottom line didn't.
Also after the bell:
- Grasim: net loss of Rs 234 crore vs a Rs 595 crore profit a year
ago, revenue +26%
- Eicher Motors: profit +15% to Rs 1,573 crore, about 3% below estimates
Context: brokerages had expected Tata Motors PV to drive nearly 15% of
the Nifty's profit growth this quarter. Kotak had Nifty 50 profits at
+19% YoY, 1.7% above estimates. That was before today's results.
Also this week: Manappuram profit +223%. Vodafone Idea net loss of Rs
5,975 crore.
Same index. Same quarter. A very wide spread.

Inflation in India just broke above the RBI's upper limit. The market
noticed today.
October CPI:
- Headline: 6.09% (vs 5.93% expected), up from 5.54% in September
- Food: 8.94%
- Onions: +116% YoY
The RBI's tolerance band tops out at 6%.
This comes five weeks after the RBI raised rates for the first time
since February 2023, taking the repo rate to 5.50% and saying cuts are
off the table.
Growth isn't the issue. Q1 GDP grew 7.8%, and the RBI lifted its FY27
forecast to 7.1%.
Today, the Nifty 50 fell 0.61% to 25,144, ending a three-day rally.
Banks, autos and realty weighed. It's still up 9.1% from Oct 30
(23,053).
A huge move up on lower oil and foreign buying. Then a first reminder
that inflation matters.
The next MPC meeting is Dec 2-4.
