Indian stock markets are witnessing a sharp decline, with even fundamentally strong stocks hitting 52-week lows due to multiple factors. Rising global uncertainties, including U.S. trade tariffs and recession fears, have led to significant Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) outflows of $16 billion.

High valuations in mid-small-cap stocks have triggered corrections, while slowing GDP growth by 6.4 percent has weakened investor sentiment. Additionally, declining domestic fund inflows, particularly in mutual funds, and sector-specific pressures have further fueled the downturn.
