The Indian stock market maintained a steady course throughout June 2025. Between June 2 and June 30, the Nifty 50 Index delivered flat returns, albeit with a positive bias. This stability was largely underpinned by consistent buying from both Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) over the past four months.

Notably, FIIs recorded a net inflow of ₹7,488.98 crore in June, while DIIs significantly outpaced them with purchases worth ₹72,673.91 crore, reflecting strong domestic confidence.

Key Trends to Watch in July 2025

June 2025 Auto Sales Data

Auto stocks like Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki (MSIL), and Hyundai are expected to remain in focus as investors await June’s vehicle sales figures. The automotive sector showed robust momentum in May 2025, with total production (including passenger vehicles, three-wheelers, two-wheelers, and quadricycles) reaching 25,82,207 units.

Domestic sales were particularly encouraging:

  • Passenger Vehicles: 3,44,656 units
  • Three-Wheelers: 53,942 units
  • Two-Wheelers: 16,55,927 units

These numbers indicate sustained demand and overall resilience in the sector, which could influence stock prices and investor sentiment in July.

India and US Inflation Data – Key Macroeconomic Cue

The release of inflation data for May 2025 (scheduled for July 14) is another critical event on investors’ radar. India’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation fell to 2.82% in May from 3.16% in April, marking the lowest reading since February 2019. This sharp drop brought inflation close to the RBI’s lower tolerance limit of 2%, reinforcing expectations of a stable interest rate environment in the near term.

In parallel, inflation data from the US will also be closely watched, as it can influence global risk sentiment, FII flows, and currency movements.

Conclusion

As we step into July 2025, the Indian stock market stands at a crossroads. While institutional buying and strong sectoral performance—especially in the auto segment—are providing a supportive backdrop, macroeconomic indicators like inflation remain crucial for shaping investor sentiment. With key data points due mid-month, the coming weeks could set the tone for the market’s direction in the second half of the year. Staying informed and agile will be essential for navigating the evolving market landscape.
