Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

India’s weight in the MSCI Emerging Markets index has fallen to 11.29 percent following the August 2026 rejig, a decline of 5 percentage points over the past year. The drop in India’s MSCI Emerging Markets index weight has been driven primarily by AI-fuelled rallies in Taiwan and South Korea, which have reshaped the benchmark and accelerated capital rotation away from Indian equities. Taiwan has emerged as the largest single-country weight in the MSCI Emerging Markets index on the back of semiconductor and AI-chip demand, while India’s share has steadily eroded from levels above 19 percent seen in late 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

India’s weight in the MSCI Emerging Markets index has slipped to 11.29 percent after the August 2026 rejig, marking a decline of 5 percentage points over the past year. The fall in India’s MSCI Emerging Markets index weight reflects a broader reshaping of the benchmark driven by AI-linked gains in Taiwan and South Korea.<\/p>\n

This shift in the MSCI Emerging Markets index matters directly for Indian equities because a large pool of passive global capital, estimated at hundreds of billions of dollars, tracks the benchmark, meaning a lower India weight can translate into reduced passive fund inflows into Indian stocks over time.<\/p>\n
