Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) withdrew ₹11,591 crore from India last week due to market volatility and global factors like the US credit downgrade by Moody’s. Despite this, their net purchase in May stands at ₹13,835 crore, indicating their continued interest in Indian markets.
US President Trump on Friday warned of a 25% tariff on Apple products made abroad, causing a drop in US Treasury yields. This move is expected to affect domestic markets when trading resumes Monday. In May, these developments will influence whether FIIs sustain their buying trend for a second month.
In 2025, FIIs sold ₹98,516 crore of domestic shares, with the highest sales recorded in January (₹78,027 crore), February (₹34,574 crore), and March (₹3,973 crore). However, they were net buyers in April at ₹4,223 crore. On a Friday, FIIs bought shares worth ₹1,794.59 crore, while DIIs were net buyers at ₹299.78 crore.
Saurabh Patwa, Head of Research and Portfolio Manager at Quest Investment Advisors, noted a significant outflow of FPI investments in India due to weak corporate earnings, election uncertainties, and urban consumption slowdowns. Patwa also mentioned that global challenges, like potential policy shifts under the Trump administration, affecting currencies and bond markets compounded the domestic economic issues.
