FIIs Shift from Net Selling to Buying; DIIs Continue Net Investments in Indian Equities
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) were net sellers of Indian equities on September 17, offloading Rs 3,209 crore, but turned net buyers with Rs 600 crore inflow on September 18. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) remained consistent net buyers, investing Rs 3,618 crore and Rs 1,020 crore respectively. Indian markets showed mixed trends, with the Nifty 50 gaining modestly amid easing crude prices and moderated US bond yields. Sectoral gains were led by midcap and smallcap stocks, while IT and banking sectors faced pressure.
