The year 2025 has been harmful for midcap and smallcap stocks. Both these index calendars are currently performing weaker than the Nifty 50 in the year 2025. If analysts are to be believed, then there is no relief for them at the moment. While the Nifty Midcap 150 index has come down by about 7 per cent so far this year, the Nifty Smallcap 250 index has declined by about 9 per cent. Statistics show that the Nifty-50 index has weakened by about 2 per cent during this period.

Strategist VK Vijaykumar said, ‘There are two trends in the market that need to be noted. First, there is a continuous trend in institutional activities that foreign investors are continuously selling while domestic institutions are constantly shopping. Second, there is a tendency towards quality – largecaps are strong while the main index is weakening. Both these trends are likely to continue in the short term. Since the dollar index and American bond yields remain constant high, there is no possibility of early purchase of foreign investors.
Long performance performance
According to a report by BNP Pariba Securities, the decline in midcap and smallcap stocks has come after a great performance for many years. Last time these two indices recorded a weak performance in the calendar year 2019. At that time, the Nifty Midcap 100 and the Nifty Smallcap 100 fell by 4 per cent and 10 per cent respectively.
BNP Pariba’s report states that since then mid and smallcap stocks have gained tremendous rise, making their evaluation more expensive than largecap shares. As a result, they are seeing a better value in largecap stocks and they are liking them against midcap and smallcap stocks in the year 2025.
In the calendar year 2025, 109 of the 150 shares (72 per cent) in the Nifty Midcap 150 index are trading below their 200 -day moving average (DMA). On the other hand, 171 shares (68 per cent) in the Nifty Smallcap 250 index are trading below their 200 DMA. The 200-DMA is an average of a closed price of a stock of a stock.
Kalyan Jewelers, Canes Technology, Aditya Birla Real Estate, KEC International, Oracle Financial Services Software, Oberoi Realty and PB Fintech calendar are now the worst performing shares in the year 2025.
According to ACE Equity data, these stocks have declined by 37 per cent during this period. Vodafone Idea, SBI Cards and Payment Services, Naveen Florine International, SRF, Shyam Metallix and Energy, Redington and Sundaram Finance are some of the stocks that have risen up to 20 per cent in the calendar year 2025.
