India VIX Volatility Index: Today's Levels, Historical Trends, and Market News

The India VIX, often termed the "fear index" or "India Volatility Index," is a vital indicator of the Indian stock market's expected volatility over the next 30 days. Derived from the Nifty 50 option prices, a higher India VIX suggests increased anticipated volatility, while a lower value typically indicates more stability. Understanding the "India VIX index" movements is crucial for investors and traders.

Today's India VIX Price

As of the market close on 22 May 2025, the India VIX settled at 17.26 points, a decrease of 1.65% from its previous close. This level of the "India VIX today" reflects the market's tempered expectation of volatility in the near term, despite broader market declines during the session. Investors often monitor the "India VIX live" movements and the "India VIX price chart" to gauge market sentiment. While some may refer to "India VIX share price," it's important to note VIX is an index level, not a stock.

India VIX Historical Returns

Examining the "India VIX historical returns" helps in understanding its recent performance trajectory and the broader "India stock market index performance." As of 22 May 2025, the historical returns for the India VIX are as follows:

  • 1 Week: -4.45%
  • 1 Month: +12.41%
  • 3 Months: +18.46%
  • 1 Year: -15.29%

The data indicates that while the India VIX has seen an increase over the one and three-month periods, suggesting rising volatility expectations during those times, it has declined over the past week and significantly over the past year. This pattern could imply that after a period of increasing nervousness, there's been a more recent calming of volatility expectations, and current fear levels are considerably lower than what was seen a year ago. The daily drop of 1.65% on May 22nd, despite a falling equity market, further suggests a complex interplay of factors influencing volatility perceptions.

India VIX News and Updates

Several key developments around 22 May 2025 provide context to the "India VIX news" and the "factors affecting India VIX":

  • Markets End Lower Amid Global Weakness: Indian equity benchmarks, the Sensex and Nifty 50, concluded Thursday's session in the red. This downturn was largely attributed to weak global market cues, which dampened investor sentiment across most sectors. Selling pressure was broad-based, contributing to the negative close for the headline indices.
     
  • India VIX Eases Despite Market Fall: Interestingly, even as the broader stock market declined, the India VIX, the fear gauge, slipped by 1.65% to close at 17.26. This somewhat counter-intuitive move suggests that while stock prices fell, the market's expectation of future choppiness (over the next 30 days) actually decreased slightly by the end of the day.

     

  • Intraday Volatility and External Factors: Earlier in the trading session on May 22nd, markets had opened sharply lower, with IT stocks being particularly affected by concerns over the US fiscal deficit and rising US bond yields. During this initial phase of selling, the India VIX had reportedly surged by 2.72%. Its subsequent decline to close lower indicates significant intra-day fluctuation in volatility expectations. Analysts continue to point towards global market volatility and ongoing trade negotiation uncertainties as factors likely to keep Indian equities in a phase of consolidation, despite some positive domestic economic indicators.

This "Indian stock market update" highlights the fluid nature of market sentiment and volatility. Monitoring the India VIX alongside broader market news is essential for investors to make informed decisions in the current environment.
