Foreign Investors Reverse Outflows as Domestic Buying Supports Indian Equity Markets
In early 2026, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold nearly ₹2.3 lakh crore from Indian equities, driven by a shift toward global tech and hardware markets. However, in July, FIIs reversed course, investing over ₹15,000 crore in large-cap Indian stocks amid discounted valuations and reduced concentration risk. Meanwhile, domestic institutional investors (DIIs) consistently supported the market, offsetting earlier FII outflows. Analysts note that geopolitical tensions, crude oil price volatility, and global monetary policy uncertainties continue to influence market dynamics.
