On March 19, 2025, the Indian stock market experienced contrasting trading activities from Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs). FIIs recorded a net sell of ₹1,096.50 crore, while DIIs posted a net buy of ₹2,140.76 crore in equities, according to provisional data. The following day, March 20, saw a reversal in trends, with FIIs net buying ₹3,239.14 crore and DIIs net selling ₹3,136.02 crore. This shift indicates a potential change in investor sentiment, as FIIs have turned net buyers in two of the last three sessions after a month of consistent selling. The overall trading activity from FIIs in March has been notable, with a total net sell of ₹30,013 crore in the first fortnight, attributed to concerns over declining corporate profits and uncertainty regarding US trade policy. As of March 2025, FPIs have offloaded nearly $17 billion worth of Indian equities year-to-date, reflecting a long-term trend of reduced exposure to the Indian market, which peaked in 2015 when FPI ownership stood at 19.1%.
