Foreign portfolio investors pull out Rs 27,142 crore from Indian markets

Mumbai: Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) turned  net sellers in Indian markets amid the ongoing geopolitical tensions. FPIs  offloaded Rs 27,142 crore worth of Indian equities, and the net outflow stood at Rs 23,101 crore as of October 4, taking into account debt, hybrid, debt-VRR, and equities. Data released by the National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) revealed this.

In September FPI inflows were the highest year-to-date (YTD) and hit a nine-month high. They were consistent buyers in June and July after election-related jitters faded and stability returned to Indian markets.

Foreign institutional investors (FII) or Foreign portfolio investors (FPI) are those who invest in the financial assets of a country while not being part of it. On the other hand, Domestic Institutional Investors (DII) are those who invest in the country they are living in. Both types of investors can impact the economy’s net investment flows.
