First - FII selling continues

If we look at the reasons for the fall in the market, the selling by foreign investors continues, shares worth Rs 11639 crore were sold on Friday, February 28. So far in the year 2025, FIIs have withdrawn about Rs 1.4 lakh crore from the Indian market. At the same time, foreign investors are withdrawing money from the Indian market and investing in the Chinese market.

Second - Now the shares of big companies are falling

Amidst the huge decline in midcap and small cap companies, now the selling in large cap stocks has started increasing. On Monday, the shares of RIL and HDFC Bank have registered a sharp decline. Shares of Reliance Industries slipped by 3.5 percent during trading. While HDFC Bank shares fell by more than 2 percent.

Third - Global sentiment is poor

The market runs on sentiment and due to the current situation, retail investors are seen keeping distance. India Inc has reported disappointing quarterly earnings for Q1, Q2 and Q3. Due to the continuing correction in the Indian stock market, investor sentiment is not improving.

Fourth - Fear of Trump tariff

The market is not able to recover from the fear of tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump. Meanwhile, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed on Sunday that tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico will be implemented on time and the date for this is Tuesday (March 4). However, the final decision will be taken by President Trump.

Summary
