FPIs offload Rs 17,741 crore in July, trend may reverse after trade tensions wane
As foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) became net sellers in the Indian equity market in July, analysts said on Sunday that continuous FPI inflows can be expected once global trade tensions settles. ADVERTISEMENT FPIs made a total outflow of Rs 17,741 crore last month, marking a shift after three consecutive months of inflows during April, May, and June, according to data released by NSDL. May saw the highest FPI inflows so far in 2025, while January witnessed the largest sell-off, with net selling of Rs 78,027 crore worth of outflows. "FPIs sold equity worth Rs 31,988 crores through the exchanges in July. This selling takes the total sale figure for 2025 to Rs 13,1876 crores. However, the FPI strategy of buying equity through the primary market also continued in July, with a monthly buying figure of Rs 14,247 crores," said VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments total investment of FPIs through the primary market in 2025 till date reached Rs 36,235 crores. This is a steady trend reflecting the FPI preference for fair valuations, Vijayakumar added. Last week, US President Donald Trump gave Russia a 10-12 day deadline to end the war in Ukraine, failing which could result in additional sanctions and secondary tariffs on countries that trade with Russia, pushing oil prices higher. This move has impacted market sentiments in the short-term, Vijayakumar said. ADVERTISEMENT "The sharp appreciation in the dollar index to 100 is a headwind, which can impact FPI inflows in the near term. Market perception suggests that following the initial chaos, a deal will be reached between India and the U.S. after the next round of negotiations. A steady trend of FPI flows will emerge after the dust settles," Vijayakumar added. "FPI selling in information technology (IT) stocks pushed down the IT index, and the uncertainty relating to pharmaceuticals impacted the pharma index, too, despite the good results from many companies in the sector," he added.

Benchmark indices fell sharply on Thursday, dragged down by heightened volatility and lingering concerns around global trade S&P BSE Sensex dropped 592.85 points to 82,133.79 by 1:04 pm, while the NSE Nifty50 fell 169.25 points to 25,050.65. All broader market indices were in the red as market sentiment weakened. Traders pointed to a mix of domestic and global triggers. While India Inc's Q1 earnings have so far been a mixed bag—strong in pockets but underwhelming in others—investors remain on edge over the uncertainty surrounding the India-US trade "An area of concern in the near-term is the uncertainty regarding an interim trade deal between the US and India. If India doesn't get a favourable deal with tariffs below 20 percent that would be a short-term negative from the market perspective," said Dr. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments much-anticipated deal, which was expected to be finalised during Prime Minister Modi's visit to the UK, appears to be taking longer than global cues remain tepid. Wall Street closed lower overnight amid fresh concerns over inflation and interest rate commentary from the US Fed. As a result, IT stocks such as Infosys, Tech Mahindra, HCLTech and TCS fell sharply during the session.A decline in heavyweight stocks such as Reliance and SBI also pulled down the main indices on Dalal dollar's strength and foreign institutional outflows have also added to the pressure on Indian continued to rise through the session, reflecting investor nervousness ahead of key earnings due later this week. Sectors like IT, pharma, and FMCG were among the top laggards, while only a few PSU banks showed some resilience. Analysts say the market may remain choppy in the short term until there's more clarity on global trade talks and domestic earnings visibility improves.- Ends
