FPI inflows: Foreign investors pull out Rs 5,524 crore in July amid US-India trade jitters; 2025 outflows at Rs 83,245 crore
Foreign investors have pulled out Rs 5,524 crore from Indian equities so far in July, turning net sellers after three months of buying, amid US-India trade tensions and mixed earnings. Total outflows for 2025 have now reached Rs 83,245 crore, according to depository data. Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director - Manager Research, Morningstar Investment Research India, told PTI that future FPI movements would depend on US-India trade discussions and corporate performance. He said that resolving trade disagreements and improved earnings could help regain investor trust, potentially encouraging FPIs to reinvest in Indian markets. Depositories data reveals that Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) removed Rs 5,524 crore from equities this month (till July 18). This follows positive investments of Rs 14,590 crore in June, Rs 19,860 crore in May and Rs 4,223 crore in April. Previously, FPIs withdrew Rs 3,973 crore in March, Rs 34,574 crore in February, and Rs 78,027 crore in January. FPIs demonstrated a significant change in investment approach this month, moving away from their previous positive stance. "While elevated market valuations prompted FPIs to reassess the attractiveness of Indian equities, ongoing trade tensions, especially between the US and India, and concerns over US interest rate policies contributed to a cautious investment outlook. Additionally, mixed corporate earnings raised doubts about the sustainability of corporate profitability," Srivastava added.

Bio CNG plant to reduce carbon emissions
1 2 Prayagraj: The Prayagraj Municipal Corporation's innovative bio CNG plant in Arail is now up and running. After a trial run processing 20 tonnes of wet waste daily for a couple of days, it will scale up to its full capacity of 200 tonnes per day. Developed through a public-private partnership, this plant is a pioneering initiative in the state. A state-of-the-art plant has been installed in Arail on 12.49 acres at a cost of Rs 153 crore. This plant will produce 343 tonnes of CNG daily. It will produce about 21.5 tonnes of gas, 109 tonnes of solid organic manure, and 100 tonnes of liquid organic manure per day. In the first phase, the work of making gas from wet waste of 200 tonnes capacity has started. The remaining 143 tonnes of gas will be produced from paddy straw and cow dung, for which the plant is being expanded. The bio CNG plant will require 200 tonnes of wet waste in its first phase to produce biogas. According to Municipal Commissioner Seelam Sai Teja, 100 tonnes of garbage will be made available initially, with more to follow as per capacity. Project head Himanshu Srivastava expects 100 tonnes of wet garbage to arrive daily within weeks, with all of Prayagraj city's wet waste being directed to this plant. According to municipal corporation's environmental engineer Uttam Verma, the plant is expected to generate approximately Rs 53 lakh annually by converting previously discarded waste into valuable resources. The plant will process fruit and vegetable peels, leftovers, and flower waste into 8,900 kg of bio-CNG and 109 tonnes of manure daily. Additionally, the plant premises will feature 2,100 planted trees, contributing to environmental sustainability. Officials claim that this will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 56,700 tonnes every year. Apart from this, it will provide direct and indirect employment to 200 people. Forty people will be directly employed in the plant.
