Total amount collected through SIP in April rises to its highest in 2025 so far: ICRA Analytics
The steady rise in SIP contributions, even amid market volatility, highlights investors' growing confidence and commitment to long-term wealth creation. This trend shows their resilience in facing market fluctuations and their determination to stay focused on their financial objectives, according to a release by ICRA Analytics.
The market downturns may be considered as an opportunity, and staying invested will result in increased accumulation of mutual fund units, which will benefit the investor once the market recovers in the long run. Regular investments through SIPs can help average out the purchase cost of mutual fund units over time, reducing the impact of market volatility.

Smallcap Stocks Dip Amid FII Selling, Tariff Concerns
New Delhi: Broader indices lagged behind benchmark indices, declining for the third consecutive week as US President Donald Trump threatened 50 per cent tariffs on Indian goods. BSE largecap and midcap indices fell 1 per cent each this week, while the BSE smallcap index declined nearly 2 per cent. The Nifty smallcap 100 dropped 8.31 per cent in a month, closing at 17,478. The Nifty midcap 100 fell 5.62 per cent in a month ending at 57,094. PG Electroplast, Kitex Garments, Titagarh, Ramco Cement, Unichem Laboratories, Morepen Laboratories and Advait Energy Transitions reported declines of 6 to 24 per cent. Market volatility amid mixed quarterly earnings and ongoing foreign institutional investor selling following the US new tariffs on India, resulted in underperformance of broad cap indices. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) net sold equities worth Rs 10,652 crore, marking their sixth consecutive week of selling. Domestic institutional investors (DII) continued their buying streak in the 16th week, purchasing equities valued at Rs 33,608.66 crore. On the sectoral front, Nifty Pharma, Realty, FMCG, and Healthcare sectors fell by 2 per cent each. In contrast, PSU Bank, media, and metal sectors increased by 0.5 to 1.5 per cent. Small caps outperformed large-caps in 2024 but began 2025 with cautious outlooks due to high valuations and possible earnings slowdown. At least 10 penny stocks, primarily small-caps, have dropped 60 to 80 percent in FY26 so far. On the sectoral front, domestic demand-driven segments such as infrastructure, select autos, and rural-focused FMCG may display relative resilience if macro conditions hold steady, analysts said. Ajit Mishra from Religare Broking Ltd said, "The Nifty's close below 24,450 has increased the risk of further correction, with immediate support placed near 24,200. On the upside, resistance is expected around the 24,600–24,800 zone, with a stronger barrier at 25,200." "Broader market indices remain vulnerable given their higher beta to FII outflows. Any rebound is likely to be short-lived unless accompanied by easing trade tensions and a reversal in FII flows," he added.

Public charging infra development vital for EV adoption: Maruti Suzuki
The development of public charging infrastructure will play a vital role in faster adoption of electric vehicles as driving range anxiety has emerged as a deterrent to customers to accept an EV as a primary car in a household, according to a senior Maruti Suzuki India executive. The sales of electric passenger vehicles in the domestic market have almost doubled, but the overall base still remains small. "Total contribution of EVs is 4.5 per cent (overall PV sales), it has grown from 2.4 per cent to 4.5 per cent. Absolutely, if you see numberwise, growth is 100 per cent. But is it sustainable?" Maruti Suzuki India Senior Executive Officer (Marketing & Sales) Partho Banerjee said in an interaction. Maruti Suzuki is set to introduce its first electric model - e-VITARA this fiscal. Banerjee stated that the segment is not witnessing adequate growth as customers do not perceive EVs as the primary car in a household. "He (customer) has got many inhibitions that EV cannot be my first car. A person who just wants to have one car doesn't want EV to be the first car," he added. According to FADA sales data, electric passenger vehicle retail sales jumped 93 per cent year-on-year in July. Total electric passenger vehicle registrations rose to 15,528 units last month as compared with 8,037 units in the year-ago period. Banerjee said that while automakers have taken care of the anxiety in terms of offering 500 km driving range in cars, concerns still remain about public charging infrastructure. He noted that Maruti Suzuki is working to establish charging infrastructure in 100 cities but asserted that highways still lack adequate charging stations. He also pointed out that all the vehicular technologies are going to come in the domestic market and it should be left to the consumer to select as per the requirement. "It is a discretion of the customer based on his need, what he wants that's going to happen. But yes, one technology should not be given more weightage than the other technologies. It should be the customer selecting, actually," he said. Currently, the total tax incidence on battery electric vehicle in the country is 5 per cent, which is inclusive of GST, while a hybrid model attracts a tax of about 43 per cent. Maruti's two models, Grand Vitara and Invicto, are fitted with strong hybrid technology. On reasons for dip in sales of entry level cars, Banerjee said that cost escalation due to various new regulations has led to drop in demand. "The cost has gone up, and the affordability is a problem. We are trying our level best by offering the best products. Very soon, we are going to introduce a financial package of owning Alto for just Rs 2,999," he said. "But the fundamental question is this, we cannot put money in the wallet of the customer. We can just help him out," Banerjee said. He noted that many people in both urban and rural areas are unable to buy the entry level cars with cost going up. Any measures that help reduce acquisition cost for probable buyers would enable the growth of the segment, he added. Banerjee noted that the impact of the recent repo rate reduction is yet to benefit the end buyers. He noted that probably it will take couple of years for the entry level segment to again get on the growth trajectory. Commemorating a decade of its Nexa sales network, the company has unveiled the Grand Vitara PHANTOM BLAQ edition, offered in matte black colour wrap.

‘Sabke boss unable to accept India's growth': Rajnath Singh's swipe at Trump
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday took a sharp swipe at US President Donald Trump over his steep tariff threats to India, remarking that the US administration, which he referred to as the 'Sabka boss,' does not welcome India's rise as a global power. Singh said there were some people who were unhappy with the pace of India's development and could not accept how quickly the country was progressing. According to him, these quarters believed they were 'the boss of all' and questioned how India was growing at such a fast rate. He added that many were trying to ensure products made in India became more expensive than those made elsewhere, so that rising prices would deter global buyers. 'This effort is underway,' he said, asserting with full confidence that no power in the world could now stop India from becoming a major global power. Trump recently imposed a 25% tariff on Indian imports, along with an additional 25% penalty, in retaliation for New Delhi's continued purchase of Russian oil. The US President also warned of further tariff hikes, demanded that India halt its dealings with Russia, dismissed India's economy as 'dead,' and faced accusations from his close aides that New Delhi was financing Russia's war in Ukraine. Singh said the current situation had not impacted India's defence exports, which were continuing to grow. He noted that the country was now exporting defence items worth more than Rs 24,000 crore, describing it as a testament to the strength of India's defence sector and the capabilities of 'the new India.' He said exports were steadily rising year after year.
