A year of insurance reforms in India, yet more ground to cover
₹10 crore, compared with ₹1 crore earlier (excluding penalties of up to ₹5 lakh per day for delayed compliance).Delayed filings of claim details, including date of filing and reason for rejection, could lead to penalties as high as ₹1 lakh per day. It can even conduct search and seizures on insurers, brokers, banks, non-banking finance companies, distributors or third-party associates in case of tampering of proof or documents for fraud.The new bill also formally recognises repositories for e-policy servicing.These moves could collectively rebuild trust in insurance and enhance insurance adoption in India, which dropped to 3.7% in the last fiscal year from 4% in 2023-24, even as non-life insurers witnessed a rise in net incurred claims ratio to 82.88% in 2024-25.“India still has relatively low insurance penetration and uneven social security coverage.

We cannot afford any complacency: Even a new year free of shake-ups would test our resolve
John Lennon wrote and recorded a song in 1975 with these evocative lyrics: So this is Christmas/ What have you done?/ Another year over/ And a new one just begun. This song was part of his anti-war activism, but the words could apply to various causes.As the sun sets on 2025 and the calendar gets reset for 2026, it might be worthwhile to take a moment to reflect upon what whizzed past as a means of getting a better handle on what awaits us.

PE/VC stake sales in Indian IPOs hit four-year high even as their market share shrinks to a decade low
In 2025, private equity and venture capital firms extracted the largest sum of cash from India’s initial public offerings (IPOs) in four years, even as their share in the country’s primary market shrank to its lowest in at least a decade. While these investors offloaded ₹20,643 crore worth of stock in 2025, they backed fewer than one in five listings, compared to around one in four in 2024 and around one in three in 2023.According to market statistics compiled by data intelligence firm Prime Database, the value of PE/VC-backed IPO stake sales this year was the highest since the all-time high of ₹31,684 crore in 2021, which came during a period of high global liquidity and a surge in technology listings following the covid pandemic.Despite the increase in the absolute value of exits, the proportion of PE/VC-backed companies within the broader IPO landscape has declined steadily over the past decade.

overall weakness.Two stock recommendations by MarketSmith India:Buy: FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd (current price: ₹264)Buy: Choice International Ltd, current price: ₹832) Nifty 50 recapNifty 50 opened on a flat note and spent the entire session oscillating within a narrow 100-point range, highlighting indecision and muted participation from market participants. The subdued price action resulted in the formation of a fourth consecutive bearish candle on the daily chart, marked by a lower-high and lower-low price structure, which signals a gradual erosion of near-term momentum.From a technical perspective, the RSI turned downward and is hovering around 49, reflecting weakening buying strength.

I made 342% on silver—and still think it was a poor investment
silver bars at ₹55,000 per kg, however, I harboured no such illusions of heroism. I was not riding in to save anyone. My motivation was entirely selfish: to protect a slice of my savings from becoming worthless in a troubled world.Today, at indicative prices of around ₹2,43,000 per kg, I have sold that silver.Selling it, I discovered, was a journey in itself.

FPIs keep faith with India via primary route
Despite domestic equities becoming the worst-performing among emerging markets in 2025, foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) have continued to invest in India through its primary markets, and the trend is expected to persist next year.Investment bankers and money managers have attributed this trend to FPIs' conviction in the country's long-term structural growth prospects, even as the cohorts tactically reduce their cash market exposure due to a range of factors, including softer US interest rates and a slowdown in earnings growth.While FPIs have net sold a record ₹2.34 trillion of cash or secondary market shares this calendar year, following steeper valuations compared to emerging market (EM) peers amid an earnings growth pause, their purchases through the primary route at ₹73,749 crore this year have been the second-highest, only to the record ₹80,314 crore inflows in 2021.This bullishness on India is also evident historically. From 2015 to the end of 2025, FPIs have been net sellers six out of 11 times in the cash market.

The stoic Sensex won again in 2025 —a rare period of calm amid tariff, geopolitical storm
Indian equities navigated a paradoxical 2025, remaining historically stoic despite the lingering shadow of late-2024 corrections and the pressure of US tariffs. With a maximum drawdown—the peak-to-trough decline within the year—of just 9% and a year-end return of 8%, 2025 stands as a year of relative calm.This performance is not a rarity, though.
