A volatile week for India markets. Benchmark indices might have moved in a narrow range, but the big carnage was seen in the small & midcaps which fell up to 30 percent in five trading sessions.

Indian markets ended the week on a negative note with cash strap, and debt-laden companies bear the brunt of brutal sell-off. The sell-off intensified on Friday afternoon on news reports that India would impose retaliatory tariffs on US goods.

The S&P BSE Sensex fell 0.4 percent compared to 1.2 percent fall seen in the S&P BSE Midcap and about 2 percent drop seen in the S&P BSE Smallcap index.

The S&P BSE500 index which represents nearly 93 percent of the total market capitalization on the BSE fell 0.7 percent in the same period.

The fall in the index was led by stocks from both Small & Midcap space which include names like The Lakshmi Vilas Bank, Indiabulls Real Estate, Dilip Buildcon, Jaiprakash Associates, Reliance Power, Yes Bank, Reliance Capital, and Jet Airways among others.

The Indian rupee June 14 fell by another 30 paise to close at 69.80 against the US currency as strengthening greenback and rising crude oil prices kept investors cautious.

On the institutional front, FPIs were net sellers in Indian markets for Rs 238 crore while DIIs were net sellers to the tune of Rs 376 crore, provisional data showed.

FIIs are also watching June US FOMC meeting which is due this week and the commentary of Fed Chairman on future trajectory of rates

The S&P index extended gains last week as market participants are pricing in that Fed may become dovish in June policy meeting.
