Domestic Investors Sustain Strong Equity Inflows as Foreign Interest Returns in 2026
Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) have invested over ₹5 trillion in Indian equities in 2026, marking the third consecutive year of strong local inflows driven by economic resilience and corporate earnings recovery. Foreign portfolio investors, after prolonged selling, have recently resumed buying, supporting market stability. Factors such as easing geopolitical tensions, moderating crude prices, and positive policy signals from the RBI have bolstered investor confidence. Additionally, Indian investors are diversifying portfolios through overseas equities and crypto, reflecting broader investment strategies amid improving market outlooks.
