India valuations hit 6-year low, but stocks still expensive than EM peers

India’s equity valuations have reached their lowest levels in six years after a recent market decline. Factors contributing to this decline include foreign selling, a weaker rupee, and rising crude prices. Despite lower valuations, overseas investors remain hesitant to invest in Indian equities due to comparative valuations. The MSCI India Index trades at a premium compared to other emerging markets, influencing foreign investor sentiment.
