Foreign Investors Resume Buying Indian Equities, Favor Autos and Consumer Sectors
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) have reversed a prolonged selling trend in Indian equities, marking the longest buying streak in two years with inflows totaling over ₹63,000 crore in recent fortnights. Key sectors attracting FPI investments include financial services, consumer services, autos, and consumer durables, partly driven by the upcoming festive season and GST cuts. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) also remain net buyers. Despite these inflows, Indian markets face volatility amid geopolitical tensions and elevated crude oil prices, impacting overall investor sentiment.
