FPIs Turn Net Buyers As Nifty Gains For Second Day, Mop Up Equities Worth Rs 995 Crore

In a positive turn for the Indian stock market, foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) emerged as net buyers for the second consecutive day, acquiring equities valued at Rs 995 crore. This surge in FPI investments coincided with the Nifty index's continued gains, reflecting growing confidence among international investors in the Indian economy. Meanwhile, domestic institutional investors showed a more cautious approach, with net purchases amounting to only Rs 187.04 crore. Analysts attribute the FPIs' renewed interest to favorable market conditions and economic indicators, suggesting that the upward trend in the Nifty could be sustained if investor sentiment remains strong. The contrasting buying patterns of FPIs and domestic investors highlight differing outlooks on market performance, with FPIs appearing more optimistic amidst a backdrop of evolving economic policies and corporate earnings reports. This development is significant as it underscores the crucial role of foreign investments in driving market momentum and enhancing liquidity in the Indian equity landscape.
