FIIs Show Mixed Equity Activity; DIIs Continue Net Buying Amid Market Volatility
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) showed mixed activity in Indian equities, turning net buyers with Rs 408 crore on one day and net sellers with Rs 583 crore on another, according to provisional data. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) consistently remained net buyers, investing around Rs 3,500-4,000 crore daily.
