How SIP, demat explosion helped Dalal Street declare independence from foreign money
Indian stock markets are now less dependent on foreign investments. A surge in retail investors and SIP contributions has fueled this change. Demat accounts have increased significantly since 2020. Domestic Institutional Investors now hold a larger stake in NSE-listed companies than Foreign Institutional Investors. Mutual funds also have record-high ownership. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Demat Detonation Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads SIP Tsunami Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads India's markets have snapped the umbilical cord to foreign flows with a retail army and a wall of disciplined SIP money. As demat accounts exploded fivefold in just over five years and monthly SIPs hit record highs, Dalal Street has found the firepower to counter fickle foreign flows and rewrite the pecking order of market ownership.'Indian markets shall continue their steadfast march towards even more atmanirbharta (self-reliance) in the quarters and years to follow,' said Pranav Haldea, Managing Director, PRIME Database Group. 'The day is not too far when the share of MFs alone shall overtake that of FIIs .'As of June-end, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) held a record 17.82% stake in NSE-listed companies, outstripping the 13-year low 17.04% share of Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs). Mutual funds , flush with retail SIP inflows, now own 10.56% of the market, which is the highest ever. Combined with retail and HNI holdings, domestic investors control an unprecedented 27.40%, sharply reducing the once-dominant foreign power shift is underpinned by a stunning rise in investor participation. From just 4.1 crore in March 2020, the number of demat account s has soared to over 20 crore by June 2025 — a fivefold jump in just over five years. The first 23 years of demat account growth were replicated four times over in the past five years estimate unique investors, based on PAN, at under 10 crore, but even that is seismic for a country that relied on a narrow investor base for decades. The boom has been driven by under-30 investors, with 4.8 crore 'active clients' trading at least once a year.'The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, which initially triggered a steep market correction, became a catalyst for change as millions of new demat accounts were opened across the country,' said Dr. Poonam Tandon, CIO, IndiaFirst Life Insurance. Retail investors now account for over half of daily transactions, democratizing wealth creation and ensuring a broader swathe of Indians benefit from the country's growth fund SIPs have turned disciplined investing into a mainstream habit. SIP contributions nearly tripled from ₹1,00,084 crore in FY20 to ₹2,89,352 crore in FY25, helping push industry AUM to a record ₹65.74 lakh crore in March 2025, from ₹22.26 lakh crore five years earlier.'The consistent rise in SIP accounts and a detailed analysis of investment trends indicate a growing preference among investors for disciplined, long-term investing over short-term speculation,' said AMFI CEO Venkat N. investors, including HNIs, retail and NRIs, now hold 63.2% of mutual fund AUM, turning these vehicles into the backbone of domestic market decades, FIIs were the largest non-promoter shareholders in India, their buy/sell decisions swaying market sentiment. Today, the tide has turned. With domestic inflows now providing a counterweight, the market is less hostage to foreign Haldea put it, 'While FIIs continue to remain an important constituent, their stranglehold on the Indian capital market has come down.': Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

Promoters' holding in listed cos slip to 8-yr low of 40.58%
New Delhi: Promoters' ownership in private listed companies declined to an eight-year low of 40.58 per cent as of June 30, 2025, following a net share sale worth Rs54,732 crore during the quarter, according to data from an initiative of PRIME Database Group. 'While promoter buying is always a positive sign, promoter selling can be due to a wide variety of reasons such as promoters taking advantage of bullish markets to take money off the table, strategic reasons like debt reduction, legacy planning, philanthropy, investment in other ventures and meeting Minimum Public Shareholding (MPS) requirement as also for personal expenses,' said Pranav Haldea, Managing Director, PRIME Database Group. 'Relatively lower promoter holding in some of the recent IPO companies and overall institutionalisation of the market are some of the other reasons behind this fall,' he added. In comparison, private promoters held a 40.81 per cent stake in the quarter ended March 2025. The last time holdings were this low was in the quarter ended September 30, 2017, when private promoter shareholding stood at 40.19 per cent. This trend has been consistent over the past three years. Over the last 13 quarters alone, promoters' share has fallen sharply by 455 basis points from 45.13 per cent on March 31, 2022, to 40.58 per cent as of June 30, 2025. According to Haldea, as long as promoters continue to hold a sizable stake after the sale, with the sale not happening at a huge discount to market price and there being no significant change in the fundamentals of the company, there is no reason to worry. This analysis is based on the shareholding data filed by 2,086 out of the 2,131 companies listed on the main board of the NSE for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. As of July 25, 45 companies had yet to submit their shareholding disclosures. Meanwhile, government holdings as promoters saw a slight increase during the quarter, rising from 9.27 per cent to 9.39 per cent. The share of Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) continued to climb, reaching an all-time high of 17.82 per cent as of June 30, 2025, up from 17.62 per cent in the previous quarter. This increase followed a net investment of Rs 1.68 lakh crore during the quarter.
