FIIs Sell Rs 6,121 Crore, DIIs Buy Rs 4,597 Crore as RBI Raises Repo Rate
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold Indian equities worth Rs 6,121 crore on October 7, more than double their selling on October 6, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought Rs 4,597 crore on October 7 and Rs 5,089 crore on October 6. The Reserve Bank of India raised the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.50 on October 7, marking its first hike in nearly four years. Despite FII selling, DIIs' buying partially offset outflows, with Indian equity markets showing mixed performance during these sessions.
