Foreign, domestic investors continue Indian equities investment
Indian institutional investors just pumped over ₹3 lakh crore into the stock market in 2025—a half-yearly record.
Mutual funds led the way, with insurance companies and pension funds also joining in, while banks were net sellers.
TL;DR
Domestic investors now own more than foreign investors
For the first time ever, domestic investors now own more of NSE-listed stocks (17.62%) than foreign players.
This shift shows growing confidence among Indians in their own economy and future growth.
How this buying spree has unfolded
Steady flows from SIPs and mutual funds, supportive policy moves like a repo rate cut, and a rebound in May-June investments have all powered this buying spree.
DIIs are now helping keep markets steady even when global investors pull back.
