Mumbai: For the first time, BSE-listed companies’ total market capitalisation (mcap) crossed the $5-trillion mark on May 21, following a run-up in midcap and small-cap stocks. However, the mcap declined to $4.97 trillion as the BSE Sensex eased 52.63 points or 0.07 per cent to 73,953.31 points. In the last five months, BSE’s market cap has increased by $633 billion. At the beginning of this year, the total market cap of BSE was $4.14 trillion.
The Indian market has been bullish for some time now. BSE benchmark Sensex is trading just below 1.5 per cent from the all-time high. While BSE midcap and smallcap indices are trading at an all-time high. Since the beginning of 2024, Sensex has given returns of only 2.3 per cent, but BSE Midcap and BSE Smallcap indices have given returns of 16 and 11 per cent respectively.
BSE has reached $4 trillion to $5 trillion in just six months. BSE touched the $4 trillion for the first time in November 2023.
