Tapering is the process of gradually stopping the purchase of assets by central banks. 

When a central bank starts tapering, it is reducing the monetary stimulus.

It also leads to an increase in interest rates. 

Tapering leads to a strengthening of the dollar and thereby weakening of the rupee.

It is a general indicator of rate hikes in the near future.

The hike reduces risk appetite and increases volatility in Indian markets.

Tapering also leads to a rise in bond yields.
