Capital Markets at the Core of India’s Growth Vision

SEBI Chairperson Tuhin Kanta Pandey emphasized that India’s capital markets are central to the country’s ‘Viksit Bharat’ vision, underscoring their importance in driving sustained economic strength. Speaking at the Global Leadership Summit 2025, Pandey said that the capital markets are not just indicators of economic performance but play a crucial role in realizing the nation’s developmental aspirations.

Strong Momentum and Investor Confidence

Highlighting India’s remarkable growth and resilience, Pandey noted that the capital market continues to demonstrate robust momentum. So far in 2025, companies have raised nearly ₹2 lakh crore from the primary market, reflecting strong investor confidence and the country’s ongoing focus on capital formation.

He also pointed to a “deep well of domestic capital” ready for deployment, with rising participation from Indian investors across both equity and debt markets. This surge in domestic engagement, according to Pandey, signals growing trust in India’s financial ecosystem and its potential to fuel long-term economic expansion.
