India\u2019s Sensex serves as the benchmark equity index of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), measuring the performance of 30 of the country\u2019s largest and most actively traded companies spanning the principal sectors of the Indian economy.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/NSE-NIFTY\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nifty 50<\/a> lost 516 points that day, closing at 23,882.05. Basically, the Nifty 50 is the benchmark index of India\u2019s National Stock Exchange, tracking the performance of the country\u2019s 50 largest and most influential publicly traded companies. Crude oil jumped roughly 6% on the news, and India\u2019s currency weakened to about 95.5 rupees per dollar.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_831358\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-831358\" style=\"width:1996px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-831358\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">India\u2019s Sensex on July 15, 2026. Image source: Tradingview.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Two days later, the market turned around fast. On July 10, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/BSE-SENSEX\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sensex<\/a> gained 828 points and the Nifty rose to 24,207, lifted by banking stocks and early optimism around first-quarter earnings. By July 15, the Nifty was testing levels above 24,190 after softer U.S. <span>inflation<\/span> data raised hopes for a more dovish Federal Reserve.<\/p>\n<h2>Domestic Buyers Step In When Foreigners Sell<\/h2>\n<p>Foreign institutional investors sold heavily during the two-week stretch, including a net outflow of about 3,062 crore rupees on July 13. Indian mutual funds and other domestic institutions bought through the selloff, adding roughly 2,000 to 3,000 crore rupees on most trading days. That buying kept the market from a deeper slide.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">July 8: Sensex falls 2.15%, Nifty falls 2.12%.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">July 10: Sensex gains 1.08%, Nifty gains 1.02%.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">July 14: Domestic institutions buy 2,928 crore rupees as foreign investors sell.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Financial stocks, including Bajaj Finance, Axis Bank and State Bank of India, led the recovery. Information technology and metals stocks lagged on several sessions as oil prices stayed elevated.<\/p>\n<h2>Payments at a Scale Few Countries Match<\/h2>\n<p>Away from the stock swings, India\u2019s digital payment system continues to grow by leaps and bounds. The Unified Payments Interface (UPI) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehindu.com\/news\/cities\/Mangalore\/upi-platform-processes-over-241-billion-transactions-with-value-exceeding-340-lakh-crore-in-2025-26-says-nirmala-sitharaman\/article70916666.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">processed<\/a> 241.6 billion transactions in the 2025-26 fiscal year, worth more than 314 lakh crore rupees, according to National Payments Corporation of India data. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pib.gov.in\/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2200569&amp;reg=48&amp;lang=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said<\/a> UPI accounts for close to half of all real-time payment transactions worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>More than 731 million UPI QR codes are now in use, letting street vendors and small shops accept digital payments without card machines. Roughly two dozen countries are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psuconnect.in\/news\/india-signs-mous-with-23-countries-for-digital-public-infrastructure-upi-now-live-in-8-nations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">studying<\/a> or adapting India\u2019s payment model, often referred to as the India Stack, for their own systems.<\/p>\n<h2>Chips, Youth, and a Growth Bet<\/h2>\n<p>India\u2019s government has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehindubusinessline.com\/news\/finance-ministry-clears-125-lakh-crore-for-india-semiconductor-mission-20\/article71165244.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">expanded<\/a> its semiconductor push well beyond its original $10 billion mission. Recent approvals have added more than 1.25 lakh crore rupees, about $15 billion, in incentives for chip fabrication, packaging, and design. Tata Electronics is building a fab in Gujarat with partner Powerchip, part of 12 approved semiconductor projects across the country.<\/p>\n<p>NITI Aayog, the government\u2019s policy think tank, has set a target of capturing 10% to 13% of the global semiconductor market by 2035, tied to a projected $120 billion to $150 billion value chain. The bet is backed by demographics. India\u2019s population of about 1.48 billion includes a working-age share of 66% to 68%, a base the IMF cites as a core reason the country is expected to grow 6.4% in the 2026-27 fiscal year, well above the global average.<\/p>\n<h2>With 39 Million Users, Crypto Assets Like Bitcoin Still Face a Wall of Caution<\/h2>\n<p>India taxes gains on virtual digital assets at a flat 30%, with an added 1% tax deducted at source on transfers. About 54 <span>crypto<\/span> service providers are registered with the country\u2019s financial intelligence unit, serving 39 million verified users who hold roughly $2.1 billion in assets.<\/p>\n<p>The Reserve Bank of India has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zawya.com\/en\/world\/indian-sub-continent\/india-central-bank-backs-crypto-ban-tax-department-warns-of-evasion-risks-documents-show-fikv1iaf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">repeatedly<\/a> told Parliament it favors policies that lean toward prohibition for private <span>cryptocurrencies<\/span> and <span>stablecoins<\/span>, urging banks to avoid exposure to protect financial stability. A long-promised <span>crypto<\/span> bill remains unfinished.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, government agencies are using permissioned <span>blockchain<\/span> for tasks unrelated to trading. AIIMS Delhi used <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-a-blockchain\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blockchain<\/a> to manage faculty recruitment records. The Cotton Corporation of India tracks cotton bales through a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-a-blockchain\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blockchain<\/a> identification system. Aviation regulator DGCA is building a blockchain-linked platform for its digital services.<\/p>\n<p>The split approach lets India use <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-a-blockchain\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blockchain<\/a> technology for government record keeping while keeping tight limits on speculative <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> trading. Where that balance goes next depends on whether lawmakers move toward clearer rules or leave the current tax and compliance system in place.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/sensex-nifty-50-crash-then-strike-back-as-india-defies-global-chaos\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways The Sensex fell 2.15% on July 8 before recovering as Indian mutual funds bought the dip.
