D-STREET WITNESSED a rollercoaster ride on June 3 and 4. First, the markets tasted a huge high after exit polls predicted a decisive majority for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its coalition, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), in the General Elections. Then it came crashing down after the BJP fell short of a majority of 272 seats in the 543-member House, though the NDA made it past the halfway mark, winning nearly 300 seats.
As a result, the Street has turned cautious, and analysts believe the government could reassess some of its priorities.
On June 4, the market capitalisation of BSE-listed companies plunged ₹31 lakh crore as the Opposition Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) put up a better fight than projected.
Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex crashed 4,389 points, or 5.74%, to 72,079, witnessing its biggest single-day fall since March 23, 2020, when the index lost more than 13% after the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Likewise, the NSE Nifty index plummeted 1,379.40 points, or 5.93%, to 21,884.50. Both the indices recovered more than 3% on June 5.
