FPIs reduce pace of selling in Indian equities in two weeks of November

The selling streak by FPIs in Indian equities continued in the second week of November. They sold $287.6 million (Rs 2,426.6 crore) of equity, compared to sales of $2,374.6 million (Rs 19,993.7 crore) in the week ended November 15. Thus, in the first fortnight of November, FPIs sold equity worth $2662.2 million (Rs 22,420.3 crore). This was one-third compared to sales of $7,898.3 million seen in the first fortnight of the previous month. FPIs sold a record equity worth $11,195.4 million in October as a whole.

FPI flows briefly turned positive on November 13 when they posted a net investment of $336.9 million after a gap of $336.9 million since October 22 when they invested $1,273.8 million in Indian equities.

Additionally, foreign investors increased net inflows to the Indian primary market to $1,177.5 million in the first two weeks of November, compared to $477.6 million inflows in the comparable period of the previous month. The primary market includes investments through initial public offerings (IPOs) and qualified institutional purchases (QIBs).

Even after excluding primary market flows, FPI sales in the secondary equity market appear modest. In the first fortnight of November, they sold $3,839.7 million worth of equity, more than half of the $8,375.9 million sold in the same period in October.

So far in 2024, FPIs have been net sellers of equity worth $1,803.4 million (Rs 15,828 crore), including inflows of $11,453 million in the primary market and outflows of $13,256.3 million in the secondary market.
