Foreign investors infused Rs 11,366 crore in the Indian debt market so far this month, pushing the net inflow tally in the debt segment to over the Rs 1-lakh-crore mark.

FPIs invest Rs 33,600 cr in equities in July amid continued policy reforms

Foreign investors injected over Rs 33,600 crore into Indian equities so far this month on the expectation of continued policy reforms, sustained economic growth and a better-than-expected earnings season. However, they pulled out over Rs 7,200 crore from equities in the last three trading sessions (July 24-26) after the government hiked taxes on Futures and Options trades (F&O) and capital gains from equity investments in the Budget.

Foreign investors pulled out domestic equities worth Rs 6,300 crore in April on concerns over tweaks in India's tax treaty with Mauritius and sustained rise in US bond yields. This came following a whopping net investment of Rs 35,098 crore in March and Rs 1,539 crore in February, data with the depositories showed. Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) made a net outflow of Rs 6,304 crore in Indian equities this month (till April 26), the data showed.
