Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) bought Indian cash shares worth Rs 1,752 crore on Friday, marking their biggest single-day buying in over a month.

FIIs bought the most in a day since September 19, an eleventh consecutive session of purchases, bringing their total to Rs 9,310 crore, regulatory data show.
