US-Venezuela Action: Why Indian Markets Stayed Calm Amid Global Tensions

• Indian stock markets showed minimal impact from US action against Venezuela, defying global market apprehension.
• Stable Brent crude oil prices (around $61/barrel) were a key factor, as Venezuela contributes only 1% to global supply.
• India's diversified oil sources and $700 billion forex reserves provided resilience against external shocks.
• Limited direct corporate exposure of Indian companies to Venezuela prevented significant revenue concerns.
• Experts noted markets viewed it as a "risk premium event," with panic unlikely unless crude exceeds $85/barrel.

Why It Matters: Stable oil prices, India's resilience, and limited direct exposure kept Indian markets calm during US-Venezuela tensions.
