India’s equity markets see a broad decline in market valuations over the past week, with nine of the top 10 most-valued companies losing value. Total market capitalization across these major firms falls by about Rs 2.74 lakh crore. HDFC Bank records the largest drop, with its valuation falling by roughly Rs 1,18,383.91 crore to about Rs 11,43,985.90 crore after shares declined around 9.40% last week, amid concerns over margins. Economic Times and other reports also note that the decline for HDFC Bank exceeds one lakh crore rupees. Reliance Industries also experiences a significant decrease in market capitalization. Hindustan Unilever is the notable exception, gaining value while other leading companies decline. Alongside company-specific factors tied to mixed Q1 FY27 earnings, market sentiment weakens in a risk-off environment, with additional pressure from weakness in the rupee. Times of India attributes the broader market pressure to rising crude oil prices and geopolitical concerns, contributing to losses in benchmark indices such as the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty.
