Self reliance! In a historic shift, DIIs' shareholding in Indian stocks is now higher than that of FIIs
In a historic shift, DIIs' shareholding in Indian stocks is higher that of FIIs In a landmark shift for Indian capital markets, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) have, for the first time, overtaken Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) in terms of their shareholding in NSE-listed companies . As of March 31, 2025, DIIs held a record 17.62% stake, surpassing FIIs at 17.22%, according to data from , an initiative of PRIME Database Group. This shift comes on the back of a massive Rs 1.89 lakh crore net inflow from DIIs during the March 2025 quarter, led by mutual funds which pumped in Rs 1.16 lakh crore, aided by strong retail flows through SIPs. This helped mutual funds cross the psychological double-digit mark for the first time, with their share rising to 10.35%, up from 9.93% in the December quarter. Insurance companies, led by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), were also major contributors, investing ₹47,538 crore. LIC alone added ₹34,435 crore, pushing its share in NSE-listed companies to 3.72%, its highest level in five years. Meanwhile, FIIs recorded a net outflow of Rs 1.16 lakh crore during the quarter, driven by concerns over rising US bond yields and a strengthening dollar. Their share in the market has now dropped to its lowest in 12 years. In absolute value terms, DII holdings at Rs 71.76 lakh crore are now 2% higher than FII holdings, with the FII-to-DII ownership ratio falling below 1 for the first time to 0.98. "This marks a structural transformation of the Indian market,' said Pranav Haldea, MD of PRIME Database. "We have come a long way from 2015, when DIIs lagged FIIs by over 10 percentage points in shareholding. Today, India's capital market is increasingly driven by domestic capital and confidence." Together, DIIs, retail and HNI investors now account for 27% of the market, an all-time high. While retail and HNI participation dipped slightly this quarter, they remain a vital pillar of the market. Experts said the growing influence of domestic money marks a turning point for India's financial self-reliance reducing dependence on volatile foreign flows.

By 2047, India's real estate market will double to 15.5% of GDP from 7.3% now
New Delhi: India's real estate sector is poised for massive expansion, projected to grow to USD 5.8 trillion by 2047, contributing 15.5 per cent to the country's GDP, up from the current 7.3 per cent, according to CIRIL report. By 2030, the market size is expected to reach USD 1 trillion, a sharp rise from USD 200 billion in 2021. The retail, hospitality, and commercial real estate segments are also witnessing significant growth, providing crucial infrastructure for India's expanding economy. The real estate market is set to maintain strong investment momentum in 2025, backed by robust domestic economic fundamentals and a strategic focus on technology and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) integration in investment decisions. The government is expected to extend infrastructure development beyond metro cities to achieve its Vision 2047. The sector has shown remarkable performance in 2024, with residential, office, logistics, hospitality, and retail segments expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.2 per cent between 2024-2028. Urbanization, rental market growth, and steady price appreciation are key factors driving this upward trajectory. Vijay Sarathi, Chairman of CIRIL, said, "We expect 2025 to continue its strong growth momentum with new investment avenues emerging in tourism and hospitality, retail, warehousing, co-working, and co-living projects." India's economic growth is projected at 6.6 per cent in 2025, driven by private consumption and investment, according to a United Nations report. Increased capital expenditure on infrastructure is expected to have strong multiplier effects on economic expansion. Investment in real estate remains strong, with Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) reaching a record-high 16.46 per cent market share in September 2024, up from 16.25 per cent, with net inflows of Rs1.03 lakh crore. Despite foreign institutional investor (FII) outflows in October 2024, DII investment remained at record levels, a trend expected to continue in 2025.
