FPIs have invested Rs 4,500 cr in Indian equity markets so far in December

After investing over Rs 36,200 crore last month, foreign investors continued their positive momentum and infused Rs 4,500 crore in the Indian equity markets so far in December, mainly due to the decline in the dollar index. However, foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) turned sellers in the last four trading sessions and pulled out Rs 3,300 crore as they are adopting a cautious stance ahead of the US Federal Reserve's decision on the interest rate.

More money is likely to move into cheaper markets like China and South Korea where the valuations are compelling now, he noted.
