Foreign investors are making a decisive return to Indian equities, with FPI inflows crossing $3.2 billion in August, the strongest monthly inflow since September 2024, even as the Nifty and Sensex fell more than 1% during the month.
Overseas investors also remained net buyers across sectors in the second half of August, marking their second consecutive fortnight of inflows, with 10 sectors attracting foreign money between August 16 and August 31, according to National Securities Depository (NSDL) data.
