Why these flows matter
FII money is the largest swing factor in Indian equities: sustained foreign buying tends to lift index heavyweights and large-cap financials, while sustained selling pressures them regardless of domestic earnings. DII flows — mutual funds and insurers deploying SIP money — act as the counterweight and have repeatedly cushioned foreign outflows. Read the two together, over a week or a month, rather than as a single-day signal. These are provisional cash-segment figures published after the close and can be revised.
Key takeaways
- FII net: ₹-3,209 cr — lower at the time of writing
- DII net: ₹+3,618 cr — higher at the time of writing
