This study explores the dynamic relationships between key financial indicators—inflation, gross domestic product (GDP), interest rate, and exchange rate—and the performance of India's two primary stock indices: BSE Sensex and Nifty 50. Using time-series econometric methods, including ADF unit root tests, Johansen cointegration, and vector error correction models (VECM), the paper establishes how these variables impact stock returns over the period 2010–2025. The findings indicate significant long-run and short-run relationships, with GDP and exchange rate showing a strong association with stock market indices, while inflation and interest rates exert negative pressure.
