SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey has urged Indian investors to remain calm despite heightened market volatility caused by the ongoing West Asia conflict, stressing that India’s domestic economic fundamentals remain strong and resilient.
Speaking at the 30th anniversary celebrations of the NIFTY 50 in Mumbai, Pandey highlighted that while global disruptions such as oil and gas supply shocks and shipping route blockages are impacting markets, India’s long-term growth story continues to provide stability.
“It’s important not to panic at this moment, but to remain calm amidst this storm,” he said, reassuring investors that India’s robust domestic demand and financial regulation provide resilience against external shocks.
The West Asia war has disrupted shipping routes and triggered energy supply concerns, leading to global market turbulence. However, SEBI emphasized that India’s economy remains fundamentally strong, urging investors to focus on long-term investments rather than short-term volatility.
