As the benchmark equity indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty scaled to record highs in June 2021, investors wealth zoomed by Rs 125 lakh crore since March 2020 lows despite uncertainties caused by the Covid pandemic.
Analysts believe that a gush of liquidity, measures taken by RBI and government and sustained inflows by foreign institutional investors aided the domestic equity market. As a result, at least 30 shares on the BSE have rallied over 1,000% during the past year. These stock are also owned by high net worth investors (HNIs). Investors who hold shares worth over Rs 2 lakh in a company are classified as HNIs.
