Foreign investors have injected Rs 4,223 crore in the country's equity market in April as they turned net buyers for the first time in three months amid a blend of favourable global cues and robust domestic fundamentals. The inflow of foreign capital came last month following a back-to-back net outflow of Rs 3,973 crore in March, Rs 34,574 crore in February and Rs 78,027 crore in January. Going ahead, FPI inflows could remain stable, but will be constrained by the modest earnings growth of around 5 per cent in FY25, V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments, said. According to the data with the depositories, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) made a net investment of Rs 4,223 crore in equities in the entire April. The latest flow has helped in narrowing the outflow to Rs 1.12 lakh crore in 2025 so far. India's equity markets witnessed a sharp resurgence in FPI activity in April, signalling a marked reversal from the outflows seen earlier this year. This re

Foreign investors have infused nearly Rs 8,500 crore in the country's equity markets last week, after a phase of heavy outflows earlier in the month, supported by renewed investor confidence, resilient domestic economy and relative insulation from global trade disruptions. During the holiday-truncated week ended April 18, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) made a net investment of Rs 8,472 crore in equities. This includes withdrawal of Rs 2,352 crore on April 15, but investment of Rs 10,824 crore in the following two days, data with the depositories showed. While the recent uptick in FPI activity signals a potential shift in sentiment, the sustainability of these flows will hinge on the evolving trajectory of global macroeconomic conditions, stability in the US trade policy, and the continued strength of India's domestic growth outlook, Himanshu Srivastava, Associate director - Manager Research, Morningstar Investment, said. During the week, trading took place on just three days fr

Easing the disclosure norms for foreign portfolio investors (FPIs), markets regulator Sebi on Wednesday doubled the asset threshold to Rs 50,000 crore for making granular beneficial ownership disclosures. The decision has been taken amid an increase in the market size. Cash equity markets' trading volumes have more than doubled between FY 2022-23 and FY 2024-25. Accordingly, it has been decided to increase the threshold under size criteria from Rs 25,000 crore to Rs 50,000 crore, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) said in a circular. Now, FPIs (individually or as an investor group), holding more than Rs 50,000 crore of equity AUM in Indian markets are required to disclose details of all entities holding any ownership, economic interest, or control, on a full look through basis. The new framework will come into force with immediate effect, Sebi added. Last month, the board of Sebi approved a proposal in this regard. In August 2023, Sebi had directed FPIs, who were

The Indian equity market has witnessed a moderation in FPIs' selling pressure with the outflows narrowing to Rs 1,794 crore (USD 194 million) last week, buoyed by easing global concerns and growing optimism around a potential de-escalation in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. However, despite this positive shift, it still marks the 15th consecutive week of outflows. Going forward, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) are expected to remain cautious, awaiting greater clarity on the US Federal Reserve's interest rate trajectory, geopolitical developments, and India's domestic economic outlook, according to Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director of Manager Research at Morningstar Investment. According to the data with the depositories, FPIs have offloaded equity shares worth Rs 1,794 crore (USD 194 million) for the week ended March 21. This was in comparison to USD 604 million outflow observed in the holiday-shortened preceding week. Last week, FPIs turned net buyers on two occasions, with
