16. Factors Affecting Nifty
Interest Rate: A rise in the interest rates depresses corporate profitability and also leads to
increases in the discount rate applied by equity investors both of which have an adverse
impact on stock price on the other hand, a fall in interest rate improves corporate
profitability and also leads to a decline in the discount rate applied by equity investors, both
of which have a favorable impact on the stock price
Growth Rate of Gross Domestic Product of India: The higher the growth rate of GDP,
other things being equal the more favorable it is for the stock market
Inflation: The effect of inflation on the corporate sector tends to be uneven. While certain
industries may benefit other tend to suffer. Industries that enjoy strong market for their
product and which do not come under preview of price control may benefit on the other
hand , industries that have a weak market and which come under the preview of price
control tend to lose
