After Donald Trump became the President, there was chaos in the Indian market, so far 45 lakh crores have been lost

New Delhi. After taking oath as the 47th President of America, Donald Trump announced to impose tariff and on April 2, he imposed reciprocal tariff on many countries. Heavy tariffs were announced on China, Taiwan, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and others and since then there has been a sharp decline in the stock markets of the world as well as the American market itself. If we talk about India, then Trump’s coming for the second time has been a loss for the stock market investors. This can be estimated from the fact that since Trump’s swearing in, investors have lost more than 45 lakh crore rupees.

Sensex slipped 3900, Nifty 1000 points
US President Donald Trump’s tariff war has badly affected stock market investors globally. Its big impact is also being seen on the Indian market. Trump has imposed a reciprocal tariff of 26 percent on India and since then the stock market has been falling continuously. On Monday alone, the BSE Sensex slipped by 3900 points, while the NSE Nifty also fell by 1000 points. Amidst this decline, stock market investors lost Rs 20 lakh crore in early trade. The BSE market capitalization was at Rs 403 lakh crore on Friday, which has now come down to Rs 383 lakh crore.

So much loss after Trump’s coronation
Now let’s talk about how much loss Indian stock market investors have suffered since Donald Trump has come. So let us tell you that US President Donald Trump was sworn in on 20 January 2025. He had repeatedly mentioned his tariff policy during the election campaign and after taking oath, he was seen constantly warning other countries about it. Its effect was also seen in the markets. If we look at the data of BSE Market Cap, it was Rs 4,31,59,726 crore on the day of oath on January 20, which has come down to Rs 3,86,01,961 crore in the early trade on Monday, April 7. According to this, investors have suffered a loss of Rs 45.57 lakh crore so far due to Trump’s coronation.

The scale of fear in the market has jumped so much
Ever since the imposition of Trump Tariff, uncertainty in the stock markets from Japan to India has reached its peak and this can also be gauged from the fact that the scale of this fear i.e. India VIX (India Volatility Index) has reached the level of 20.95 with a rise of 52.27 percent on Monday. It is worth noting that this scale shows the volatility that will occur in the stock market in the coming 30 days.

Experts are giving this advice to investors
A report quoted VK Vijaykumar, Chief Investment Strategist of Geojit Financial Services, as saying that the global markets are going through extreme uncertainty. No one has any idea how this turbulence caused by the Trump tariff will continue in the future. He advised stock market investors that it is better to wait in this turbulent situation and this would also be the best strategy at this time. He also said that Trump’s tariffs will not continue for long and India is in a relatively better position because India’s exports to the US as a percentage of GDP are only around 2 percent.
